Marjorie Taylor Greene brought a Scooby Doo meme to Congress and there’s no mystery what happened next
The level of political debate – and the intellect of the people who aspire to govern us – isn’t what it used to be, both in the UK and the US.
But we didn’t think it had quite sunk this low, after conspiracy theory endorsing Republican Marjorie Taylor Green decided to illustrate her argument – such as it was – against the Green New Deal by doing this.

Ruh-Roh!
It’s fair to say people weren’t entirely sure what the Scooby Doo meme brought to the debate. The answer, it turned out, was non-stop mockery with a side order of disdain and disbelief.

To conclude …
The truth is: the natural world is changing. And we are totally dependent on that world. It provides our food, water and air. It is the most precious thing we have and we need to defend it.
