Sure, the climate changes. Micro, macro. And??

As a pachycephalosaurus once said, “It’s getting so cold and dark. Plants aren’t growing as well. I’m getting really hungry. Why did humans in the future burn up all those fossil fuels?”

The paragraph below is from a Financial Times article on Soviet-era psychological hospitals. We're almost there:

Over the course of its 69-year history, the Soviet Union was notorious for its heavy-handed suppression of political dissent — most infamously through its use of the Siberian GULAGs. But it was during the 1960s and 1970s that the Communist Party took their intolerance for ideological deviance to extremes by diagnosing and institutionalizing so-called counterrevolutionaries with mental illness. It was a frightening episode in Soviet history in which perfectly healthy citizens could be deemed psychotic simply on account of their political views.

Speaking of mental illness, there is more scientific evidence that transgenderism is fake than there is scientific evidence that climate change is real.

ACC (Anthropogenic climate change) does not need to be real to be a powerful political tool. Politicians seek the acquisition and maintenance of power and fear as a powerful motivator when it comes to voters. Most politicians are retread lawyers so their scientific credentials are questionable at best. However, they are quick to recognize a scientific argument that can be turned to their purposes. AGW presents such an argument. To the extent that AGW poses a threat the politicians are the least equipped of anyone to address the problem.

As lawyers they actually believe they can alter reality by edict. King Canute amply demonstrated the folly of that when he commanded the waves to cease. When a “scientist” claims that “The science is settled” he is only displaying his ignorance for all to see. Real scientists recognize that science is never settled, it continues to evolve as new understanding is achieved.


Excellent post.

Whenever I’ve heard people claim that ACC is an issue, My question is if the climate is in crisis, what should the climate be doing to be not in crisis and if it is, what should be done about it? There answer usually revolves around some kind of government action. I then ask if we do take the suggested government action, by what measure will we know it’s been a success?

Usually by then the answer is something to the effect of “well we have to do something about it!!”

See what us conservatives are up against?

Actually, King Canute was tired of all the yes-men surrounding him. He put on his display to show how powerful God was, and how he was a mere mortal in the face of God. It was his attempt to show that we, as humans, were not in control.

The years have not been good to Alec Baldwin. When he was in “Hunt for Red October” about 30 years ago he was one of the most handsome actors in Hollywood. No he is a fat, mean old man.
