Hey
Liminal ,
Are you going to point out the lies or do I get to keep demonstrating that you've posted nothing of value since you started this stupid thread.
As I've said...I don't have a solid opinion one way or the other.
But I have no respect for people like you who have all the answers but no data to back them up.
Forget providing links alone...that means nothing.
You pull the data from the link and describe how it supports your position. Otherwise take your lazy ass somewhere else.
And I'm saying your little snippets of data taken in isolation with no context are completely meaningless.
I've provided no data.
You are just making stuff up.
I am awaiting your post where you point out the lies.
You said they are lying. You must be able to show the lies (or I suppose you would).
I am not calling anyone anything (except you whom I am calling a fraud because you can't produce what you need to back up your claims).
I've made no claims other than you are a fraud.
You are deflecting.
Like so many who post, you are good with the accusations but when asked to produce back up...you wander all over the map farting out smoke every step of the way.
Show the lies.
Since you are apparently a little slow to learn I'll help you out by deconstructing the denier myths a piece at a time.
I am most looking forward to your responses.
Let's start with the foundation of the denier lies: Climate change deniers maintain that 97% of climate scientists are either directly or indirectly employed by the government, and therefore all their studies and conclusions are based on a conflict of interest.
This is the foundation of the denier lies ?
I don't believe I've ever heard that claim before.
Surely you can produce something that shows this is the "foundation".
Would the "deniers" agree with you ?
They all evidently agree because of financial incentives.
I suppose you mean all these scientists agree...correct ?
Didn't Al Gore make the same claim about the deniers in his movie ? I didn't see it so I can only go from what I've heard.
What kind of financial incentives are we talking about ?
Yet not one denier can even begin to substantiate wild distortions like that, some apparently believe they can make it true by simply repeating it.
I would agree that this is quite a claim. But I am not sure that I can agree that this is the basis for their denial.
The tactic you call out is pretty common. Not just in this debate.
I'd love to see someone provide the evidence of this massive, diabolical plot to suppress the truth......with something besides more idle speculation.
Yes, well this claim makes it all the more difficult.
You'd need to produce the argument on their part (and I can assure there are other arguments that seem to be much more at the front of things) if they have one. If they don't, you obviously can't refute it.
Are you saying this is the whole basis of their claim ?
They are not basing anything on data they say is relevant ?
