- joenot443 3y agoThis is a nice little example of a funny American tendency I've observed - if someone from the Wrong Team is associated with something you agree with, the immediate assumption is that there's some way in which this is secretly bad. In this case, u/supportengineer is in fact implying that Bloomberg spent $500m to keep coal plants _open_. A laughable notion to anyone familiar with Bloomberg outside of his 2020 run, but this what happens when your brain perceives the world in Red and Blue.

Not that it makes it a good comment, since the answer is right there in the article. But the question isn't automatically stupid tribalism.
