The failure of the Fucktards.
Or as Pascal has labeled them, “postmodernists”
No, not postmodernists in the architectural sense, but in the sense that they reject pure science in favor of the science that supports their theories.
And they will fail. Of course.
They will fail because of human nature- and in fact, because of the nature of Americans.
Sure, a lot of people believe the green partyline, drink the global warming Kool-Ade. And a lot of them are trying, a lot will try, and many will even put up with being forced to try to”save gaiea”.
And then the bonds will chafe. We’ll tire of the bullshit. We’ll tire of having to walk the extra couple miles. We’ll get sick to death of having to drive expensive underpowered crappy cars. We’ll realize that the world is not about to come to an end. And then we’ll toss these morons out like the newspaper used to wrap yesterday’s mackerel.
Witness the Carter administration, which did it’s level best to convince us we were mere months away from running out of gas. And thirty years later, we drive on.
Fact is, nobody wants to be inconvenienced, and we will do everything we can to avoid inconvenience. We have submitted ourselves to the most privacy-invading marketing techniques and tracking devices in the name of convenience, and we will rebel against anything that removes that convenience from us.

Well, I think that about covers it. After all, these idiots go to rallies and scream about no blood for oil, along with save the planet from global warming… then get back in their SUV’s and drive home to their big houses… etc.
That they see no irony in this behavior is… amusing. That they want to invade my life… is not.
They shut down the Tobacco Institute for gerrymandering and massaging the research and the facts about the dangers of smoking, then turn around and push An Inconvenient Truth in the movie houses and schools.
Global Warming. The new Tobacco Institute, but for environmentalists.
Sometimes I’m overwhelmed by the stupidity of people. Can it truly be that I’m that much smarter that the average bear? That doesn’t seem possible. I didn’t even finish high school (although I have two college degrees)
Wretchard, who was my source, posted again with a more thorough look at what is this “Post-Normal” Science.
Hidden down in the comments to that second thread, Wretchard added what I submit is the logical extension to all this stunningly impressive postnormalist line of thinking. Enjoy:
Seeing these nimrods in action, my only question is: “How long before the potential to exploit this opportunity dawns upon them?”
You guys did a nice job stereotyping all liberals as hypocritical idiots. I guess that just shows your own ignorance.
You have misrepresented the consensus view. Which climate scientists have said “the world is coming to an end” as you have suggested? The issue isn’t that the world will end but that human life on earth will become increasingly difficult do to global warming.
Now I’m sure you badasses here don’t worry about that kind of stuff, especially since you believe the radical islamists are going to kill you first. How’s that for a bit of stereotyping on my part?
It’s this simple Redleg.
Climate scientists predict: 2-10 inches
Al Gore refines this to: 20 feet
Al Gore raised the ante for no other reason that to SCARE fools. So how come you are silent on that STUNT?
Climate scientists who are revolted by the second claim are kicked out of the fraternity. Leaving behind these Post-Normal scientists as were described.
How come you didn’t respond to that either?
Come on Redleg. How can you not be embarrassed by that lie?

Actually, the prediction was 2-10 metres in the IPCC report…But then again, you neo-conic guys always assume we brag as badly as you do…
“We’ll get sick to death of having to drive expensive underpowered crappy cars.”
Yup, the seventies immediately came to mind…

Here’s the link you forgot to include with you claim. No wonder too. It’s the link that sinks your bogus butt.
Are you a good actor212? Are you trying to embarrass Redleg even more than the “Gorical?” With “friends” like you, the fauktards don’t need many enemies.
Some models? Is that like low-rate journalists who resort to the anonymous “some critics” in order to level outrageous charges in a hatchet piece?
Is it safe to presume that any model whose value or writers are too far removed from reality to reveal either it or its proud creator by name is one that nobody wants their name associated with?
Well, I guess if you’re “post”-normal, uberpatriot, it looks like the answer is “No. I’ll stand by it.”
So. There you have it Og. Please add “uberpatriot” and his IP address to your tin-foil hat “post”-normal geniuses list.
LOL! Yeah, Pascal, it piles up higher and higher.
“where in my comment did I say I supported any of the findings of the IPCC?”
You didn’t. What you did was make a snarky comment to which Pascal has appropriately responded. If you want to play here, play nice.
And the sun continues to increase the surface tempratures all orbiting planets… 2 degrees when I last checked… I wonder what the Neptuians are blaming for their heatwave?
ok uber. obviously you have trouble with pascal’s position on the issue. grow a pair and state your own. I and I alone can make ad hominems here.
Nothing, Uber?
Let me see if I get this straight.
You are convinced global warming does exist, because the kool-ade tastes so good. So, rather than produce facts which support your theory, you attack the methods of others. Do I have this right? I think I must.
ed: I imagine I could give you a run for your money
I heard Bill Maher say the other day that “if you have to tell people you have a big cock, you probably don’t.”
Fuck-tard, indeed. Yes, in fact, that is what I am.
I am so fucking stupid, that I buy into the totally ignorant assumption that global warming can be predicted by a statistically insignificant sampling of data.
II know that accurate temperature measurements have never been taken on over 70% of the earth’s surface, and the whole of the data sample is less than 500 years old, and yet I believe this is adequate information to model future changes, by people who can’t get the weather right five days in a row.
Some people, like me, are just STUPPIIDDDD..
