I firmly believe that without lobbyists pushing us into red or blue boxes, we'd all find common ground on a lot of important issues.

I've known some conservatives who are very much into solar power in a sort of independent/self-sufficient/pseudo-prepper type of way.

Locally sourced renewables for me, while snaring other countries with GLOBAL ENERGY DOMINANCE.

Biden used this approach, but US empire plan was always to prefer energy dominance at cost of global destruction. There was just some naive hope that US could dominate clean energy too, no matter how slow it was. Biden's choice of a war on Russia is purposeful global destruction to enrich US oil industry so that they could fund GOP harder, and have "democracy to blame" for all of the alternate drilling done in world.

While US made solar/wind and batteries is still cheaper than new FF plants+ fuel costs, subsidizing them to not buy even cheaper Chinese options, is preferring climate terrorism to energy security. War, and warmongering choices for war, is climate terrorism prioritizing anti human massive diesel use and new production instead of considering human sustainability.

That Americans pay more for energy and insurance and rebuilding, is good for oligarchy and "superficial" (GDP) economy. Genuine American manufacturing and personal cost of living are sacrificed.

The logic of subsidizing uncompetitive local industry is only valid if it creates a future of competitiveness. Otherwise there is no export potential, though almost competitive status is enough to get legitimate sales with shipping time/cost advantages over imports. The logic of political bribery from oligarchs who prefer to protect the asset values and profits means that "national/human good" has zero relevance to outcomes.
