I’ll take five while I’m still alive!
I suppose. However, there are Right leaning articles in Left leaning media and visa versa. I guess it’s more of a request for FR software setup to flag Leftist articles. Seems like FR has more Leftist articles than Right-leaning articles. I wasn’t really criticizing you particularly. I don’t know how far I’d get with that kind of request. Seems like they’re not necessarily that amenable.
“Global Warming” or more recently “Climate Change” is a gravy train for activists and scientist -if your life endeavor was to avoid doing anything productive and basking in (self) praise how would you respond to a threat to that existence...???
She is a well known kook.
The style of the article is very typical though, and often used by much more influential characters. It is an ugly propaganda technique.
Its an attempt to create a frame for criticising something, and more to the point someone, by asserting a novel definition of some loaded term. “Hate”, “phobia”, etc.
In this case some vague set of misfortunes to which humanity is subject becomes “violence”, with a cause, and, both in assertion and implication, a specific perpetrator. And this justifies working up a real hatred of the perpetrator. After all, violence is associated with deliberate malice and anyone who does violence to innocents deserves hatred.
Guys like Lenin and Stalin did this a LOT. Lenin particularly in his own writings, and Stalin through his speechwriters.

Here is how you end the Global Warming debate. Call it what it is. Pollution. The air is bad, well that is air pollution. The oceans and rivers and lakes are dirty, well that’s water pollution. People all over the world are starving, well that’s using corn for freaking ethanol.
Here is the problem. If you call it pollution, countries like China, India, Venezuela, Mexico and most of the middle east will have to pony up the cash.
I’m ready for ‘em to try.
Socialism is violence
You can tell she wrote her Wikipedia entry herself, and spent days on it.
Without reading much more than a few indroductory sentences, it’s probably safe to say that the author should have a psychiatric evaluation.
They gotta get rid of our guns first. Which will be very interesting...

Did you see that other thread about TIME's cover about "denialism"? They might as well have redeployed the old "Jued suess" smear-slogan of the Nazis.
"You're a denialist!! --- hisssssss!!"
See we can do hyperbole too.
Thanks. I caught that :)
“But you can reach the top of your profession
If you become the leader of the land
For murder is the sport of the elected
And you don’t need to lift a finger of your hand...”

“... You can, say, build a sweatshop factory ...”
Or build a newspaper buisiness that is responsable for destroying millions of trees (for paper). Why do these leftist allways exempt themselves?
The climate-change scam is economic and political violence committed against the poor.
