Time to drop a brick of epistemology on a table full of vibes. - Climate change

[Oddball]

Okay, explain how so-?

Because....PEER REVIEWED CONSENSUS!!!

Climate scientists aren't lying about the evidence. You just don't understand it.

 

[The Duke]

What you’re doing right now is lashing out and trying to assert control because the cognitive dissonance of having decades of empirical, independently verified science laid out in front of you is triggering.

All the caps and profanity are classic signals of someone whose internal narrative feels under attack; it’s defensive aggression substituting as an argument. You’re not engaging with the content. You’re trying to escalate and reclaim a sense of power in a space where your ideas aren’t holding up. The energy here isn’t debate; it’s ego-protection in full display.

So where is it?

So where is it?

I've been explaining it for 32 pages now. You either didn't read or are being obtuse.

Newsflash, cupcake: "Climate scientists" just possibly might have an agenda and motivation to lie, you ******* retard! AGHH!

The insults, exaggeration, and sudden volume shifts aren’t evidence. They’re a smoke screen to reassert control when your arguments can’t land. Pure defensive posturing because the actual content is outside your comfort zone. This isn’t debate; it’s a full blown ego response trying to signal strength in the absence of substance.

So explain to me how Climate Change works and why people should be taxed for it like I'm a 6th grader, ok?

 

[Mushroom]

There isn't a scientific institution on Earth that takes the position that AGW isn't real.

So what?

There actually are. But when any are listed like almost anything else they are dismissed.

 

[Mushroom]

Hell, natural selection and Darwinian evolution have far more evidence to its veracity, but even in science classes, most schools stepped lightly on that topic.

Hell, that alone is one of my major reasons to laugh at their claims.

Because many of the things they try to use to validate their claims and use as proof are clearly contradictory to evolution. And I laugh at how often I brought that up and was completely ignored.

Which part contradicts evolution?

 

[Mushroom]

Also something I love to point out to them (which is normally ignored), is that the newest glacier on the planet is less than 50 years old.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

I don't have a position on the policy. I'm strictly talking about science. Disagreeing with policy isn't a reason to not be realistic about science.

Perfect.

We've seen natural warming since the Little Ice Age ended.

Humans have added a little.

Wasting trillions and damaging our economy to reduce CO2 a little, while China, India and poor countries increase CO2 a lot is really stupid policy choice.

 

[The Duke]

But dude, that's what it's all about. For real.

 

[Anomalism]

I appreciate you having enough integrity to at least say this.

Why do you think the others can't do the same?

 

[Anomalism]

But dude, that's what it's all about. For real.

Maybe for you that's all it's about.

 

[The Duke]

Maybe for you that's all it's about.

Oh, I will regret this, but what's it all about for you, cupcake?
Spare no detail, this is your chance to make your case.

For me it's about defending physics. I barely even post about, let alone debate policy in general.

It's not interesting to me. I don't care what people decide to do about policy. I just care about the science.

Okay, that's not what I was asking for.
Now do how much grass converts CO2 to oxygen.
You have failed to make any kind of case whatsoever at this juncture. Just so you know.
