I keep seeing it framed as the data centers using too much water. They need the water for the excessive HEAT they produce, with all the ELECTRICITY generated by (in mist cases) FOSSIL FUELS.
Yeah that’s a red herring on purpose to distract you from the fact that these data centers are literally running on hundreds of 24/7/365 jet engines being used as generators. It’s so obscene I kind of wonder if a lot of this AI hype and the wars aren’t being driven by the oil industry to prop up their dying business model.

The Prime Minister of Canada said that the construction of data centers should be encouraged because it will “provide markets for our natural gas”.
It’s not even a conspiracy theory, it’s openly stated.
So many people need to be put against a wall and made to explain, in front of live audiences or cameras, why dying industries NEED to be supported.
Nobody ever said “the fidget spinner market needs a bailout! They’re a dying industry!”
Of course, fidget spinners weren’t paying for bribes.
Fuck Carney, that motherfucker.
It has received coverage. This is just one example. Problem is people ignore the problems in already blighted communities.
Are they actually running the jet engine generators 24x7x365? Fuck the data center expansion for AI sake but also we should be honest.
Yes. I am being honest. Datacenter builders and operators are not. Believe them at your peril. If I need to convince you, you’ve already lost.
