> What a weird, rose-tinted view of the US you have

Someone pointing out that the US is adding large amounts of solar with minimal government effort isn't "rose-tinted", it's just factual.

> absolutely braindead political opposition to energy modernization

The good thing is that in the US some people having strong political feelings about something doesn't really stop us from doing things. So not only have we added lots of new solar, we did so with a "braindead" government. That means there's a lot of people in the US who understand the changing needs we face and that having a moron in the White House doesn't really affect that.
