_Something_ motivates them, though. They have been on a wild anti-solar bend the last year or more. Dozens of articles, all with the same anti-solar NIMBY bent
replyThat's just your reading comprehension.
replyThey are reporting on an anti-solar NIMBY movement and mention how the far-right is pushing the issue. That doesn't mean they share the same opinion.
Haha, the Guardian is just as much in bed with the capital class.
replyThe guardian have previously been found to generate a significant amount of ad revenue from fossil fuel companies. They aren't politically aligned with it, but are financially. Remember that a large portion of the left in the UK are also anti-solar since they are pro-green nature and they have yet to make a choice on this.
replyP.s I am pro renewable and pro-solar/wind/nuclear just to clarify that this is nothing about my personal beliefs.
Cite your source. The Guardian stopped accepting ads from the fossil industry 6 years ago - [0]
replyIt is convenient to be suspicious against news that isn’t aligned with your views.

I'm aware of this policy. I cannot re-find the source, but there was an investigative piece somewhere that found they continued to take money from fossil-fuel aligned companies. I cannot find it after trying to look again admittably, though I am unsure if it because of my poor memory and that it didn't exist in the first place or because search engines are poor at this sort of thing. They do however continue to take ads from very high carbon industries like airlines and the such however.
replyThey largely share my views, I am not suspicious because they don't align with my views, I am suspicious of all profit-motivated companies equally.
