Oh fucking hell, yet another “GW is real and the evil people are trying to kill us all with denial” thread. And of course it has > [@Conservative groups spend up to $1bn a year to fight action on climate change](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/conservative-groups-spend-up-to-1bn-a-year-to-fight-action-on-climate-change/677029/155): > > I am fully on board with AGW (or Climate Change or whatever you want to call it) Once again, we see the vague and unscientific “belief” brought up. Most people just sort of “know” what it means, and how it’s all bad news, and how the evil people of the world are stopping the good people from saving the world from “it”. And “it”, the undefined scary story pimped with out mercy, all the goddamn time, has all the markings of a myth to some, a scam to others, and a religion to those who truly believe. The science is the last fucking thing you will see discussed, though any thought of personal changes to lifestyle and consumption are also scarce. > [@Conservative groups spend up to $1bn a year to fight action on climate change](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/conservative-groups-spend-up-to-1bn-a-year-to-fight-action-on-climate-change/677029/157): > > If we got really excited about global warming, whole fucking world pouring brainpower, money and effort into solving the problem. Once again, before you can solve “the problem”, you have to be able to describe it, understand it, know what it “is” that is so life threatening, so dire, so important that you want to change the entire world, and quickly. (except of course, changing your own eating habits, your penchant for eating, being warm and protected from the elements, small things like that) Which is exactly the point many smart scientists and climate researchers (and politicians and leaders) made during the seventies global cooling scare. You might accidentally, while trying to “fix the problem”, make things worse. Or you might be simply wrong about what is causing “the problem”, in which case you could actually do some major damage to the world by taking steps. You can actually listen and watch this being explained.

(Yes, they are actually that stupid) > **[1970s Global Cooling Alarmism](http://www.populartechnology.net/2013/02/the-1970s-global-cooling-alarmism.html)** > > " Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.

Of course [our favorite blog of total shit science](http://www.skepticalscience.com/What-1970s-science-said-about-global-cooling.html) will blindly proclaim “the truth”, and fuckheads like GIGOgalloper will swallow it, with out a shred of skepticism. It’s pages like that, actually really stupid shit pages, that confirm the diagnosis that the SS blog isn’t science based. Hell, it’s not even consistently logical with it’s own propaganda. Which is one main reason why GIGOgalloper had to leave the topic. Faced with science, and rational discussion, there is no page to link to on the SS blog. Since he doesn’t actually think, he was lost. Even his loyal followers slunk off, because once you have to go outside your bible of climate, you are faced with having to think. Bitch. > [@Cheshire\_Human](#): > > There is _never_ in _any_ of his posts, _any_ link that _ever_ has _anything_ to do with the point he claims to be making. A heaping serving of stupid swill has zero effect on the intelligent. But, you don’t understand what that means. You never will, hence it’s not worth wasting a moments time with you. Despite the kindness of linking you to a post or two, you just don’t get it. > [@FXMastermind](#): > > Why wouldn’t **skepticalscience** know this? Or any of the genius idiots here who quite simply never shut up? Unless they are asked a simple question? Oh right, because skepticalscience/realclimate doesn’t know it, how could they? > > **There’s a term you won’t find on skepticalscience** > > _inadvertent climate modification_ > > Of course you also won’t find “global warming theory” or “AGW theory” or “theory of global warming” either, so it’s all good. That was about [skepticalscience.com](http://skepticalscience.com) The site actually does not contain “global warming theory” or “AGW theory” or “theory of global warming”, or AGW, or any “theory of climate”, or “theory of climate change”. Once GIGGO realized this … > [@FXMastermind](#): > > Plus, I think he was Googling like crazy trying to find an answer. I already knew there wasn’t one at skepticalscience, and it’s obvious he doesn’t actually know much. He was doomed. Not that it stopped him from posting 58 times in 48 hours in the latest “AGW is real” topic. One out of every three posts is a GIGO post, and almpost all of it useless spam, dreck, rationalizations or his usual stench. > [@Conservative groups spend up to $1bn a year to fight action on climate change](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/conservative-groups-spend-up-to-1bn-a-year-to-fight-action-on-climate-change/677029/155): > > but threads like this one make it easier for skeptics to remain skeptical. BG made the post because it confirmed his biases and didn’t spend an ounce of rationality when reading it. GIGO, I appreciate your zeal on the subject but defending the OP in any form decimates your credibility. It’s impossible for him to have any less cred. It’s technically impossible. As for “it”, of course the stupid rolls on. > [@Conservative groups spend up to $1bn a year to fight action on climate change](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/conservative-groups-spend-up-to-1bn-a-year-to-fight-action-on-climate-change/677029/166): > > It means “anthropogenic global warming.” And some of these people actually think other people take them seriously.
