It’s a never ending source of entertainment, even when it looks like multi-train accident.

“We have to act now to stop dangerous global warming, and the cause is using fossil fuels, so we must reduce fuel use. Global warming is now irrefutable, we know with confidence that unless we take drastic steps, dangerous warming will continue.”

Hold up there Sparky. What do you mean by global warming?

“You are obviously a denier, the same as somebody who thinks the world is flat, smoking is good for you, and evolution doesn’t exist”

What the fuck are you talking about? I asked you a simple question.

“Go read the latest IPCC report, it’s all in there. I’m done trying to explain things to you”

OK then, good luck with that.
