First the Los Angeles Times, and now the popular website Reddit have banned critical comments on global warming orthodoxy in responses to their articles. Giuseppe Macri of The Daily Caller reports.

We have reached Stage III.
We must be politically correct in the thoughts of Lenin...er...Gore...er...Obama.
Shove it, all of you.
Up your collective smelly Obamas.
And while you’re up there ingesting the dark stuff, try taking a course or two in physics.
Which you will - of course - fail.
Just in case anyone misinterprets my rant above, it was directed at the LAT and their marshmallow-major minions.
I have three acquaintances that I have always thought of when Man Made Global Warming is debated. Many years ago I offered them (individually and separately) sound and logical reasons to be skeptical of the so called science about MMGW. In each of those three cases, I got them to admit that they would feel foolish if the correlation to CO2 and the warming of the planet was ever disproved.
17 years without global warming even during the continued rise in global CO2 atmospheric levels should quite convincingly dispel the correlation between global temperatures and atmospheric CO2. I’ve been waiting and contemplating when the right time would be to circle back and make sure they make good on their word to “feel foolish”.
hmm i may just post some allegedly positive comments that are so lame...that they will be seen for what they are by anyone not sold out to AGW hysteria.
I remarked to one of my LIV clients that it was snowing in Jerusalem and Cairo.
Her instant and roboticly-perfect reply was:
“That’s because of Global Warming”.
You can’t make this stuff up.
CO2 driven global warming has evolved from a theory subject to scientific debate to dogma where any dissent is deemed to be heresy. More and more scientific studies as well as the empirical evidence that global temperatures have been declining despite higher CO2 levels, have shown the theory that increased CO2 levels driving higher global temperatures to be wrong. However global warming has become a cult and no evidence will cause the cultists to abandon their dogma.
LOL! Well call me a heretic I suppose.
I’m of the opinion that every Freeper should sign up for Reddit and make at least one comment a day.
The vision of Reddit mods pulling their hair out to delete comments is very amusing to me this morning...
It might provide some joy to some folks. Heheheheh.
“You can avoid reality, but you cannot avoid the consequences of avoiding reality.” AR
What is this ‘Reddit’?
I think it’s some sort of site where ideas can be exchanged. As long as they’re the right ideas of course.
I’d use a different tactic and instead post rabidly PRO-Global Warming hysteria blaming every conceivable ill known to man on Global Warming.
Motorcycles cutting you off on the freeway? Global Warming.
The NSA debacle? Global Warming.
Nancy Pelosi’s psychotically crazy looking eyes? Global Warming.
Obamacare’s failures? All caused by Global Warming.
Embrace the paradigm and make them choke on it!
Reddit’s censorship is a serious problem, because they have over 4 million subscribers to their science subsection.
And now that they have decided to censor one area, they will invariably decide to increasingly censor all science that is not in conformity with radical Democrat party politics. So it is only a matter of time until they censor:
Theories other than evolution.
Sociology, anthropology, biology, psychology and other studies and sciences that reject any part of the LGBT agenda.
Medicine and alternative medicine not in conformity with organizations like the radical leftist American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Psychiatric Association, and other such groups. Any medical alternative to Obamacare. Or that does not fully support abortion, euthanasia, and gun control as “scientific”.
The board will also go decidedly anti-religion. “You cannot be a scientist if you believe in God.”
There is no limit, really. So that part of Reddit is effectively dead already.
An interesting take on things.
On the mountain, JHVH described his name as “I AM THAT I AM”, which means a multitude of things, including that God is both absolutely unique, comparable to nothing that exists, and the creator of all that is. This created a problem for mankind, because if God creates all things, man creates nothing.
Rather arrogantly, there was an effort to resolve this with the statement “I think therefore I am”, by Rene Descartes. This achieved nothing except create an opening for atheistic philosophy, the idea that mankind takes the place of God in the Cosmos, as able to use abstracts to create reality.
But the truth is that it is resolved by the understanding that, while God creates all things, mankind was tasked with *describing*, with abstracts, what was created. That is, Adam named the animals, plants and everything else. But no man could “name” God, because abstracts are reliant on comparisons to each other.
People’s perpetual arrogance is in believing that our abstracts actually create reality. But, it could be said, that all the poetry, and all the mathematics, cannot make a single flower.
