Why did Sarajohnson only date conservative men? They take showers.

Notice how carefully they avoided testing whether conservative white males know more about the topic than members of other demographic groups.

I’m guessing if they someone doesn’t believe their lies they must be conservative. They prey on the ignorant.

Climate change denial. The implication is that the truth is obvious, but these stupid white males have decided to deny it anyway. A lot of them probably have college degrees, so they should know better.

All of these stupid white males should turn themselves in for deprogramming.

Now they say that being a climate change denier is akin to being a racist.

Well.....since the currently accepted definition of "racist" is "has a brain larger than a peanut and doesn't think government is the solution to every problem, or every non-problem..." it actually IS the same thing! ;-)

As a recent study shows, conservative white males are less likely to believe in climate change.

Not to sound racist, but I'll bet black male high school drop-outs are the most likely to believe in global warming...

Not to sound racist, but I'll bet black male high school drop-outs are the most likely to believe in global warming... followed by white women drop-outs, followed by ... You know, same groups who believe in astrology, psychics, tea leaf readings...

"Know thy enemy"

Enemy is a group that is a threat. Obviously there is no science involved here just politics that can turn violent.

these people are sick

"It is arguable that the most damaging effect of the Catastrophic Anthropogenic Global Warming crowd is the damage they have done and are doing to the reputation and public view of Science."

Worth repeating and saving. Very nice post.
thank you

How about just because we’re smarter than the rest of the general population?
