By that token, America should have bullet trains everywhere

Or....stop defining everything as left/right and make things for people. Stop the divide, it's what 'they' want.

And we can call wind farms, "Jesus Farms!"

Democrats suck at branding.

Private companies do not, though: https://www.sempersolaris.com/

Veteran owned, uses made in America parts, offers military discounts and they have a program where they do free installs for struggling vets.

Their tagine is "declare your independence from the power company"

I interviewed for a job with them once and they actually sounded very competent too

Patriot Power is real, and it really sucks. It's the solar power offerings through 4Patriots, weak-ass off-brand Chinese batteries & weak, overpriced solar panels. The only good things 4Patriots offers is survival food & sun kettles.

There are plenty of people on the right who would love energy independence, but problems include cost, infrastructure, and implementation. I'm team solar panel/nuclear power, but every few years...the solar panel tech gets way better than it EVER was. So when is the right time to plunk down tens of thousands of dollars?? It's just now starting to get really good.

Wind turbines are also getting much better. And it's about damn time.

The biggest financial problem is energy storage solutions, spend $5-10K per battery, and have it lose 40% of its effectiveness after 5 years?? Yeah, no thanks, I'm not an idiot.

But we're coming up with (ACTUAL, WORKING, COST-EFFECTIVE) solutions for that problem, too. Sand, gravity, and waterfall batteries.

All this to say, the technology is just now starting to get serious traction & legs under it. ¯\(°_o)/¯ It's not ready...until it's ready. The 'greenest' things we can do, right now, involve reducing our usage & upping our efficiencies (via new windows/doors, insulation). That's the smart money.

Immigrants don't want you to have solar power. Especially brown people. I bet you can't even fit a solar panel on your emotional support vehicle.

They already kinda do that, at least in my area. There's a company that advertises on AM radio called Semper Solaris and they go hard on the support the troops/vets angle with their sales pitch. It's pretty cringe, but it must work because they keep their advertisements running pretty much every commercial break. Not that you need to try very hard to convince a Californian to get solar panels installed on their roof. "Make the sun pay your entire electric bill" is also pretty effective advertising.

You just have to tell them oil is dug up by brown people and solar is made by white people.

I'm sure they can think up a new name for it themselves...

Seriously though, the German liberal party (FDP) has dubbed renewable energy “freedom energy”.

Would absolutely work in USA.

The word patriot is like a button for mind control.

Do the same for wind power, tell em the blades only kill immigrant birds or something.

The issue isn't in the name. The issue is that a lot of people just don't even want to know what any of this is, and blindly voting for something is bad, no matter how you look at it.

Screaming "woke" at everything is a cultural/educational issue, so I'd rather see resources being spent on that

Or enslaved sunrays maybe?

I'm pretty sure I've seen "Patriot" type branding for massive battery backups targeting preppers.

I.know you meant well op. <3

We do kinda need to remind people that the founders fought for freedom, fair representation and equality under the law. We are the real patriots, fighting for the same.

How about slapping something gun-related on it, like that Black Rifle company?

Tbf, thats actually not a bad idea.

Call it the MAPA

Make America Powerful Again

I remember when even the far majority on the right thought Freedom Fries was a stupid thing.

Gimme some freedom fries with my patriot panels.

Smartphone? Patriot Connection Device

Someone's already done it https://4patriots.com/products/patriot-power-generator-1800

Freedom power, you can just walk outside and get bathed in freedom.

Solar is like Brawndo, it's what plants crave

Why do people have to be like this? Why can't they just accept something without it having to be labeled in terms that appeal to their sensibilities? Why can't they just be honest?

Call it Reagan Power
