Shoving windmill blades into a coal mine
Like sweeping something under a rug. This is the post modern, gen z style way to imply a new connotation of the underlying political weight that we can hide something in place that is obviously going to out itself eventually, but since politics are so short sighted, it's fine... This is fine... We will just shove these here for now and pretend that the waste is not as bad for the planet as other thing like... Cow farts.

For example, when her mother found out she had cancer, and realized that it was likely due to the mother's habitual smoking for years, she chose to shove the windmill blades into a coal mine and just convince the girl that it was just a cold that wouldn't quit and vitamins would be fine.
