There you go again. I had forgotten how this particular stupid started.

Of course to be fair it might be the exact phrasing, so let’s look at “[water vapor is a feedback loop](https://www.google.com/#q=%22water+vapor+is+a+feedback+loop%22)”, which is the really wrong part of the claim.

You can remove the “loop” from the claim, you still won’t find it a valid claim. Nor in any textbook. Yes, I am talking about the claim “.You’d be dead wrong, of course; water vapor is a feedback loop, not a driver.” Especially this bullshit that “it is **a feedback loop** ”, which is just batspit lunacy.

Not only is a fiction, the basic concept isn’t even valid. It’s one of those made up things the new breed of idiot climacticologists just made up, in order to bolster the idea that a tiny little warming will feedback into a huge disastrous amount of warming, all due to water vapor.

If that falls, they have zero, nothing at all to be alarmed about, in regards to temperatures. Obviously the potential change to the pH of the oceans is a serious fucking problem, and for no other reason we need to stop burning fossil fuels at the record pace we see. How to do something about that is a huge topic.

But you can’t just make up something and claim something, and then refuse to debate the claim, not online you can’t. OK I guess you can, but people will mock you and shit like that.

But goddamn, I was clear about what I stated, no confusion there.

You want to take something else from a textbook and crow aboput victory, you go right ahead. You complete fuckhead.
