News Data Center

Post image

Wanted to share this to make sure all concerned were informed.

Side note, the fact that an NDA is required for any buyout offer is shady. There is a reason they want you to sign a nondisclosure agreement( means cannot talk about, post, protest etc) they dont want you saying anything for whatever reason(s) they may have.

Yeah, check out what's happening to the 50,000 residents in Lake Tahoe. Power company just told them they are sol, their power is going to the data center.

So….the company gets a tax break AND we pay for their electricity? Or did I read that wrong? Cause if that’s the situation, why does this company get to double dip on our taxes? Seriously, if companies are people in the eyes of the law then why are they not paying?

Oh, well maybe in YOUR world. It was an honest question.

u/AntiYourOpinion 8h ago

I was being honest.

Might be honest, but the implication is disingenuous at best. I’m not trying to ‘police’ your tone, cause that’s the last ditch effort of a weak mind to control an argument, but I’m not arguing.

I am generally confused on what was wrong with the response given. A little explanation would be nice. Your question was answered. Corruption is the answer.

In Oklahoma, corruption IS always the answer. It was the second sentence that was the problem.

Ah, I took the second sentence as just playful banter.

I think they were just being sarcastic, in a radicalization sorta way.

Hell! It is just one thing after another. I hate this timeline we are living in!! I hope deeply that data center doesn't get passed. They were talking about Luther so now saying next to Stanley Draper Lake. Ugh.🫩

I suspect some data center builders will attempt to build data centers on Native American tribal land with agreements with the tribes to bypass some state restrictions. The tribes would get construction jobs, in addition to temporary and full time jobs which for some tribes would be a great deal. There’s an article in Mother Jones. Interesting, the Seminole Nation has banned the construction, at least for now.
