very few people want to be the person yelling at clouds.
You'll never get a rational one, because it simply doesn't exist.
This is horrific, the level of hubris it takes to not only do this kind of tinkering, but to come out and say it proudly like it's a reasonable inevitable solution is honestly unfathomably evil.
Frankly I am legitimately scared at what comes next -- it was so clearly being done in secret but on a relatively large scale before if you followed the ScIeNcE via whitepapers, patents, etc...
How bad is it going to be now? And what weird doomsday doctrine are those in charge following behind the scenes to come to the conclusion this is reasonable, and to be ready to come out of the shadows like this? Dark days ahead.
Of course. they're going to reflect back light. Our skies will literally be darker.
You can nitpick and get pedantic on that point if you want - that doesn't change the fact that the 'conspiracy theorists' in this situation were literally pointing out all of the research on "stratospheric aersolozied injections" that indicated the government wanted to do a global experiment to block out the sun, and today they are openly admitting it using the exact same language.
I personally find it incredibly unlikely that they have done 0 research and testing on this prior to this announcement, so I find it reasonable to believe they have clearly done it in some capacity in the past which led to this wider decision. You may not agree, which is fine.
That however does not change the fact that the conspiracy theorists were at least right about the method and mode the government was planning to use to block out the sun -- the only thing you can nitpick about is whether or not it has been done in secret on some scale prior to this announcement.
In fact the trend is opposite, towards technology-enabled free-routing of each individual flight.
Get a $50 diffraction grating off of ebay and make a spectrometer out of it and you'll have your answer. Compare the results to the different aerosolcandidatesin your patents and white papers. No conspiracy theorising needed.

I'm not going to take a post like this seriously unless there's some effort to say who "they" are, and how they advance their schemes. Partly that's because interest group politics are complicated and conspiracies are hard, so a story's not much of an explanation if it leaves out that part.
And partly it's because --- look, I don't think grandparent meant they-the-Jews. But a disturbingly non-negligible portion of the time, people who throw around shadowy "theys" end up meaning the Jews. So the mode makes me personally a bit uncomfortable.
I'm not saying all chemtrail people are right or there isn't some nuance, but if you actually paid attention to the coherant ones in the group, they were pointing to different patents around 'straospheric aerosol injections', pointing to different analysis of what was in the air already, observing plane patterns, and saying 'gee it looks like they are already doing these stratospheric aerosol injections, probably to reflect back sunlight as they described in the various whitepapers etc.'
I'm sure this comment will be hidden for whatever reason, but here we are and now they are finally ready to publicly admit to what they have clearly been planning and likely doing secretly for ages now. Why on Earth those in control feel fine to admitting to cartoonishly villainous plans it's pretty much the only thing up for debate here.
This will have absolutely ruinous effects if they go through with it on such a scale that they feel compelled to come out of the shadows.
