Nothing says legit like the umpteenth Soros deep-state conspiracy

By all means, if you are able to refute the article, by all means, I'll hear you out. But eyerolls and "nuh-uhs" aren't an argument and further prove you have no legs to stand on.

I can't prove that every Democrat isn't a lizard person either, but that doesn't make it likely.

news flash, not every story relating to Soros has to do with the "deep state".

I mean he ain't the mainstream, forward-facing state. If he is continually funding every and all Republican-unpopular agenda and person from the shadows, then he is the deep state.

Why can't we just get experts out in public speaking out and detailing things? Hell, bring Al Gore back. What the fuck does she know? She comes off as self satisfied and condescending, and as a 16 year old foreign girl speaking to world leaders that's not an endearing look.

Experts have been talking about this for the last 30 years.

No not those experts! Experts that will somehow get through to my thick skull!

Are you calling my skull thick? If so why?

George Soros should donate some money to Trump just to see some heads explode.

What is this deep state you are referring to? My article is just about Greta's official escort being a climate protection activist and employee of George Soros' "ONE" Foundation.

I'm just generally saying that people demand science and experts, but have been plugging their ears or actively suppressing information for decades

Now a high school girl says something and it's "Oh well maybe people would care about climate change if more than emotional teenagers were whing about it!"

It's almost like some people have no interest in the issue and will make up excuses.

Not that I even understand what a layperson would gain from fighting against climate change discussion.

b-b-but they just have an issue with the numbers!

We should do absolutely nothing until we can pin down an exact year when the planet will be completely inhabitable. If that year is far away "Oh we don't need to go crazy. We got time and we'll be dead anyway". If it's close, "Oh that's sensationalism and we wouldn't be able to stop it anyway". Totally open to convincing though

They are literally garbage sources though. The gateway pundit? Come on now.

Is what the gatewaypundit put out incorrect in the facts that they stated? If all you can do is attack the messenger and not the message, it merely shows you can't debate the argument. The other article I posted was just re-posted news articles over the past 50 years about what the "consensus of scientists" were claiming in regards to the climate and how their doomsday prophesies failed to live up to expectations.

I picked one at random. It was the claim about Arctic ice vanishing in X years.

Well, the truth of the matter is that we didn't start measuring that until 1979 and the measurements since are worrisome.

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2019/09/23/arctic-sea-ice-shrinks-2nd-lowest-mark-record/2421502001/

The amount of summer sea ice in the Arctic has been steadily shrinking over the past few decades because of man-made global warming, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and NASA.

The trend is obvious. Even if the earliest models were not good enough due to a lack of data, this is not good and that article is cherry picking to the extreme.

There are some common sense reforms we can do today that would cut emissions.

1. End the military industrial complex and drastically cut spending there.

2. No more fiscal deficits and central bank interest rate suppression. That pulls future consumption forward along with any associated emissions.

3. Shut the borders. When millions of people from the 3rd world move to the West their carbon footprint goes up.

I know the left hates 2/3 of the above, but its a climate emergency.

Common sense, yet I see none of the shit that climate experts have been advocating for. In fact, this looks like a terribly unsubtle way of pushing unrelated agendas and attacking "the left" while pretending to be someone who really cares about the environment.

#3 is just full of yikes

All we need to do is raise money to invest into a smart grid, renewables, and a shit ton of reforestation / new trees worldwide.

All 3 reduce emissions without handing an even greater share of the economy over to short sighted and corrupt politicians. But the corporate wing of the left hates all 3. They love our bloated military, expansionary fiscal and monetary policy, and open borders.

If the climate emergency is really serious, it makes sense to discuss including the above with existing proposals. Offending the left is less bad than a climate disaster, especially considering what we are told will happen to many 3rd world countries.

Actually having a life. I don't live on here. So you got me. Arctic ice melts in the summer and grows back in the winter. I don't know how I can continue living knowing you got me. I always thought polar bears went extinct 3 years ago. I mean, Al Gore said they would, and he wouldn't lie to me.

It's entirely possible that they were wrong on how soon it would happen. But being off by 15 years doesn't make me sleep better at night considering the problem is clearly still there. At this rate the Arctic ice really will vanish, even if not when Al Gore said it would. We need to fix that.
