Daily Dot A long line of vehicles lined up on Monday, waiting up to eight hours to exit the Burning Man festival after heavy rains and mud prompted a lockdown that left thousands of attendees stranded at the desert venue.
But some are chalking up the saga to more than just bad weather.
Among those is firebrand Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) who theorized in an Infowars interview that the attendees are “probably being brainwashed that climate change is the cause of all of it, the root of all evil, and it’s going to destroy the earth.”
“After this is over at Burning Man and these 75,000 people disperse and they go back home, they’re going to have these stories to tell on how terrible it is and how we have to do everything possible to stop climate change,” Greene added.
She continued to say that attendees will say climate change is caused by humans and “the amount of carbon that we put out” through manufacturing, gas and diesel engines, and agriculture. Some may even blame overpopulation, she said, that “we have too many humans putting out too much carbon.”
“You’re going to start hearing all this stuff and this is going to build,” Greene continued. “And I believe this the left’s new lie they’re going to put on the American people and try to get everyone behind.”
