Monty Python’s Eric Idle wants to put climate change deniers on trial in a world court
Twitchy ^ | March 15, 2017 | William A.

Posted on 03/16/2017 9:45:31 PM PDT by TBP

On Wednesday night, Eric Idle, known to many Monty Python fans as Sir Robin the Not-Quite-So-Brave-as-Sir Lancelot, took aim at climate change deniers.

"I think that denying climate change is a crime against humanity. And they should be held accountable in a World Court."

It wasn't too long ago that these types of Thought Crime statements would be widely ridiculed and result in the loss of social standing and career opportunities.

Not anymore. We hear it pretty much everyday now from all sorts of political and cultural Fake Celebrities.

I want to ignore it. But it seems like the front end of a cultural Doppler Effect that might not turn out so well.

The same world court that would try climate change deniers would also sentence those intolerant sorts who made a lifelong career dressing in drag and making jokes at the expense of homosexuals.

They didn't sympathize with the transgendered.

Beware this world court that you demand, Mr. Idle you are guilty and will be punished by the Socialist Justice Warriors who find you to be an intolerant bigot.

I personally always thought they were idiots.

People around here were glad when some years back one of them was fighting for the right to insult religions.

It was a freedom of speech thing. Fair Enough.

But he did it so he could keep ATTACKING CHRISTIANS, not muzzies.

It might be really funny, but not my cup of tea.

Now Johnny Dangerously...that was funny :)

And “A Fish Called Wanda”

Sounds great, Eric, let’s go. You can start by providing evidence of exactly which climate change we’re talking about... Is it global warming or global cooling?

Take your time with that pesky question (which is why you use the phrase ‘climate change’ since none of the fringe scientists (climatologists, a discipline entirely created to support a political ideology) can even agree on that basic question.)

Thank Walt Disney for teaching them not to crap in the fields.

There were others even more explicit (no nudity) showing the locals going into the crops to take a runny dump with the runoff contaminating the food and water supply.

Somehow I don’t trust it will turn out that way.

I had a acquaintance who was in the Albanian Communist resistance during WW2. After the war, his duty was to preside over trials of alleged collaborators and fascists. He attempted to have fair trials, but the Communist leadership saw it as his not being dedicated enough to shooting fascists. Then they accused him of being a fascist himself. He escaped to Greece, became a Christian, and eventually made his way to America.

The kind of trials he was expected to conduct are the kind of trials I would expect in the world court for climate change deniers.

I love Monty Python but ClimateChange/GlobalWarming is a bigger hoax than any sketch they ever did.

I propose that we allow all Climate Change zealots to live in the ocean.

Atlantic or Pacific, either one is fine, there’s lots of room in either one or both for all of them.

AGW is a modern apocalyptic religious cult.

Eric Idle wants to burn the heretics and witches who do not believe.

I’m okay with that.

The Gulf survived BP, the Atlantic shall survive Climate Change zealots, though I realize that they are quite filthy, and it will be a challenge.
