Okay, this is absolutely priceless. It’s so ridiculous I’m even finding it hard to get angry about it. From the OP’s link:
Yes folks, anything that evil people believe must be wrong, no matter what the actual evidence about the subject is or who else believes it!
Did you know that Adolf Hitler (oh come on, this thread was bound to go there eventually, why not now?) was a believer in personal hygiene?! Yes folks, this evil dictator and genocidal despot bathed at least daily! Hitler’s position on bathing differs very little from what the “mainstream” media and the Center for Disease Control say about hygiene, which I think tells you all you need to know about that.
Coming up: Fidel Castro brushes his teeth, and the late Chairman Mao turned off the lights when he wasn’t using them. DON’T BE LIKE THESE MADMEN!!
I hate anyone or anything “Heartland”. The phrase just grates on me. No one ever claims to live in Liverland or Pancreasland. Neither of which is nearly as replaceable or “riggable” as a heart. At least they aren’t claiming to be Brainland. If you have to make allusions to “hearts” or emotional issues right upfront in your name, I feel justified in discounting whatever claims you make. So, thats just my opinion.
Seems very Rovian. Take one of your weaknesses (actions likely to eventually lead to death and misery on a massive scale) and pin it on your opponents. Reality be damned!!
Do I seriously have to read this article in order to dismiss it as idiotic? 'Cuz I’m pretty sure based on what little I’ve already seen in this thread that I’m on the right track already and I really don’t want to waste my time or possibly damage any of my brain cells looking at anything those cretins have to say.
When you think about it, which should really disturb a sensible person more? That some criminally violent madmen accept some of the same scientific hypotheses that you do, or that some criminally violent madmen are more rational than you when it comes to science?
A more honest for the Heartland Institute would be
Charles Manson, a mass murderer. Fidel Castro, a tyrant. Ted Kaczynski, the Unabomber. Criminals. Lunatics. But still saner about climate science than we are.
I know. I can only laugh thinking about it. It should piss me off in some way, but it’s so totally ludicrous. I can’t stop grinning as I write, and I grin or smile so seldomly it actually hurts.
I remember that dark day, when al-Qaeda released that statement saying they crashed those planes into the World Trade Center in order to eliminate its carbon footprint.
On that note, it is important to remember that the first case of mass murder regarding the AGW issue was made by a denier, Hans Breivik claimed in his manifesto that besides his racism he also thought that another reason for his rampage was that the left in his country deserved to die as they followed an “environmentalist conspiracy”
So much from Breivik claiming he got his ideas from Wikipedia, in reality the sources Breivik relied were and are charlatans.
To me it is horrible in the extreme that it does not bother one bit to outfits like the Heartland Institute that they continue to spew the same lies that guys like Braivik swallowed hook line and sinker.
