Climate change, pollution, dwindling resources and natural places

[Spartanmack]

Don't forget false flag property destruction and a media that will zoom in to fill the frame with a fire in the street at night to make you forget that thousands marched all day with no destruction.

except that's not what happened. The media bent over backwards to ignore the property destruction and violence to label every riot a mostly peaceful protest.

is there a chance that was because every "riot" WAS a mostly peaceful protest?

 

[Spartanmack]

Probably not. But I also don't think it shouldn't be used to invalidate the actions of peaceful protesters that can't stop it from happening and do speak out against it. It's like as long as there are people upset enough to break stuff, we don't have to acknowledge any problems. (And if people don't beak stuff, we can ignore them.)

everyone probably agrees with that, which is why it's not being used to discredit the peaceful protestors. There's no need for FF property destruction when you can simply show them the facts regarding police interaction with the civilian population.

That's funny when you say it.

mostly peaceful protests that resulted in $2B in property damage, hundreds of injured police and civilians, a few murders, etc, etc.

better funny than dumb...you should try it sometime.

Nice. That didn't take long.

Nice. That didn't take long.

that's not my argument against the peaceful protestors. It is my argument against the lie that the riots were mostly peaceful protests. There's a rather large difference - I would think someone as nit picky as you could see that.

To discredit the peaceful protesters I point to the facts and statistics that demonstrate quite clearly that cops aren't racist and there isn't a systemic problem with police brutality in this country.

I am sure you've thoroughly researched this issue, & are speaking as an objective authority on the amount of property damage done, people murdered (by the protestors?) and people injured, and not just pulling numbers out of your ass.

I can't move on from this yet. It just makes my day. Just so beautiful.

clearly, you're having trouble distinguishing between 2 arguments. If I tossed you in a round room and told you there was a penny in the corner, I doubt you'd be able to move on from that either - either way, your day is made.

 

[Gulo Blue]

Clearly. You have a dizzying intellect.

have you found the penny? I can see you now, chasing around the room looking for the corner mumbling "i'm the dread pirate Robert, I'm the dread pirate Robert..."

Bumping Gulo's old thread with some climate news they probably won't be sharing on the DailyWire, or whatever hole-in-the-wall shit "news" places that you guys read...

But it's a long time coming:

A jury on Thursday awarded $1 million to climate scientist Michael Mann who sued a pair of conservative writers 12 years ago after they compared his depictions of global warming to a convicted child molester.
...

Mann’s research was investigated after his and other scientists’ emails were leaked in 2009 in an incident that brought further scrutiny of the “hockey stick” graph, with skeptics claiming Mann manipulated data. Investigations by Penn State and others found no misuse of data by Mann, but his work continued to draw attacks, particularly from conservatives.
​

I remember all that. Someone hacked PennSt's email and took comments from Mann WAY out of context to claim all his data was fabricated. None of it was, but the people that were excited about the first part either ignored or pretended not to hear the second part.

“Mann could be said to be the Jerry Sandusky of climate science, except for instead of molesting children, he has molested and tortured data,” Simberg wrote. Another writer, Mark Steyn, later referenced Simberg’s article in his own piece in National Review, calling Mann’s research “fraudulent.”

The jury in Superior Court of the District of Columbia found that Simberg and Steyn made false statements, awarding Mann $1 in compensatory damages from each writer. It awarded punitive damages of $1,000 from Simberg and $1 million from Steyn, after finding that the pair made their statements with “maliciousness, spite, ill will, vengeance or deliberate intent to harm.”
​

This part, what a dumbass, LOL:

During the trial, Steyn represented himself, but said through his manager Melissa Howes that he would be appealing the $1 million award in punitive damages, saying it would have to face “due process scrutiny.”
​

Good luck with that, idiot. Maybe ditch the manager and hire an actual attorney to handle the appeal this time?


Pay up, fuckfaces.

Wow now I know where I should have put the post about John Podesta becoming the new Climate Tsar.

yes, you're welcome.

I guess that one has to remember the fact that it exists in the first place. Or care.

Come Ash Wednesday, you won't have me to kick around anymore anyway.

Taking my Lenten hiatus.

well, Richard Nixon, I am a little... taken aback, that you feel I kick you around, or would even enjoy kicking you around.


But happy Lenten hiatus, and please pray for us sinners, libtards, socialists, communists, socialist atheist Catholics, and worst of all (according to the theology I learned in school)... the lukewarm Catholics.
