How privileged we were here on RBT to get all the true information on the Chinese COVID pandemic first from Tom Kunich while governments and the regime media and even medical institutions around the world persistently lied to us -- against the misinformation and obstruction and personal attacks and lies about Tom from the Scumbag Six (Krygowski, Scharf, Liebermann, Slowcumb, the coward who calls himself Funkmeister, and the queer bookkeeper who ran away whose name I've already forgotten).

I am not at all sure that we have even begun to hear of the true injuries and deaths caused by the mRNA vaccines. While covid-19 was self limiting to the respiratory system., the vaccines have been found in every single organ in the body. I am of the opinion that like AIDS, this vaccine will eventually cause failure of the immune system of most of the people who received it. One of the chief causes of death from the vaccine appears to be dementia which Flunky has been showing for months. But the latest video from Dr. John Campbell on the death of a Japanese child unfortunately appears to tell a much larger story than the NIH or CDC will admit.

At what point do you suppose that the entire world is going to turn against Big Pharma or do you suppose that they will stand idly by while profits kill their very own children?

The only good thing I can think can result from this is the slow and painful deaths of the Stupid 6 (Beatie may already be dead since he hasn't made a posting in over a year)

It's interesting that you often mention that Jay might have moved or
has died. I've often suspected that you may also have died, with a
carbon fiber stake through the heart, and have been replaced by a
defective AI program.

Why do you suppose that stupid fool Liebermann tells us all about how successful Jay is by referring to a 2015 advertisement? Hopefully Jay simply got tired of the bickering and moved on but Liebermann doesn't know it and could just as easily emailed him to make sure he was OK. Jay won't answer any email from me. He has me in a kill file that Krygowski and Liebermann tell us doesn't exist.

Virtually every day another paper is published in the medical or scientific journals showing ever worse side effects of mRNA vaccines. What caused Krygowski and the other far left wingers to close ranks and vote to kill themselves? I've got news for you morons - that in fact proves me right!

Ummm... Proof of what? I fail to see anything "above" written by you.
The comment about Jay was written by Tom, not you. As for "...run
interference, ruin the thread, and smear Tom", it would seem that you
consider smearing Tom to be unacceptable, while Tom doing the same to
those whom he finds disagreeable is perfectly acceptable.

I won't apologize for ruining your thread, especially when they are
used as a launch pad to attack me. It seems that your threads are
those where only your opinions and those of your supporters are
allowed. That tends to create a rather one sided discussion. Are you
suggesting the your threads should be considered proclamations are not
subject to correction or debate?

Somehow, mentioning that Jay is "alive and well and currently working"
has morphed into describing Jay as "successful".

Law offices normally do not advertise on their web pages the services
of their employees or partners if they were dead. (Jay is a partner
in the firm). He's also currently listed in two directories:
<https://profiles.superlawyers.com/oregon/portland/lawyer/jay-w-beattie/c3d1e1d7-1a6a-45cd-8e93-1fd1226d63ce.html>
<https://www.bestlawyers.com/lawyers/jay-beattie/69952>

I was wondering where you found that the "advertisement" was from
2015. It's on the bottom of:
<https://lindsayhart.com/Jay-Beattie>
"Jay was selected to appear on the Oregon Super Lawyers list every
year from 2011 through 2015". However, the two badges for
SuperLawyers on the same pages show that he's been listed for "10
years", which is more than the 4 years that 2011 - 2015 would suggest.
Probably Jay neglected to update the page.

Tom, if you really want to know if he's still alive and working, you
can easily call the law firm on the telephone and ask:
<https://lindsayhart.com/contact>

However, you list as a reference on your LinkedIn resume someone who
might be dead. The only evidence I can find of his existence is his
LinkedIn page. I vaguely recall that you once mention that he was
your mentor and that he was no longer alive. I don't recall the exact
discussion.

Please note that I'm really enjoying your comments about "kill files".
I never mentioned Jay having a kill file. It's you who claims to have
a functional kill file program for filtering rec.bicycles.tech using
Google Groups to read news. Too bad Google doesn't have such a
feature.

Funny how anyone could ever consider a discussion started by jute to have any potential to be ruined. His discussions are already the lowest possible level of anything that could be consider discussion. Off topic non-nonsensical rants - much like kunich. You can't ruin something that's already useless garbage.

You have to forgive Frank. His entire world is tumbling down as people realize the he is a touring bike rider that was never anything else. There's nothing wrong with that but why is he speaking about things he knows nothing about and pretending that the fact that he once was a mechanical engineering teacher gives him an advantage that people who have actually done these things don't have?

Not to mention that the only one that is interested in what Frank has to say is Flunky whose loins are aching with love for Krygowski. OK, Flunky is queer, but Frank doesn't need to feel a growing attraction for him because they have common enemies - that is also queer.

Your entire life is reduced to nothing more than the RBT "victories" you've deluded yourself into thinking you've won.

> Talking to you is a zero-sum game.

Yet you keep doing it, and dedicating entire discussion threads to him.

LOL...Dakota doesn't exist. It's your femme alter ego, a pseudonym you wrote a couple of books under because your career was in the crapper after you committed career suicide with that POS hit piece on Stieg Larsson (using your other pseudonym andrew mccoy as a "co-author" lol) and you were looking for a new start. So desperate were you that you actually started conversations with her in your good reads forum and created a facebook account facebook account with a few male followers thinking you were a real woman.

Funny how now you're playing (playing?) dumb, you lying POS. What a fuckwit.

Are you suggesting that Dakota Franklin is a real person? Then why
does your photo of her show the light coming from the left on the
visor, while the shadow next to her nose show the light coming from
the right? If she is a real person, there would not be any need to
fake the photo.

That's new to me; I hadn't seen any. Source please? I'm interested, if it's really an actual journal. If they're every day there should be a lot of them.

Tim. of course you're not seeing it on NBC or CNN that is owned by Bill Gates as well as his capital stakes in Big Pharma. Precisely why do you suppose that they have forbidden mRNA vaccines in Australian and Switzerland? Now with the release of the Pfizer papers, we find that the 3rd most common side effect of the Pfizer vaccine is covid-19. That they KNEW that heart damage to young people was a common side effect. This shortens the life if it doesn't kill them. Remember how people like Frank tried to use "correlation doesn't mean causation" when young athletes were dropping dead after the second vaccination?

https://www.acc.org/latest-in-cardiology/journal-scans/2023/01/17/18/00/circulating-spike-protein

Why would you suppose that articles like this weren't screamed from the rooftops? Why did it take massive increase and speed of all dementias (most ending with death and NEVER attributed to the vaccine) and myo and peri-carditis, massive blood clotting and today's massive excess death rates from which the pharmaceutical companies are legally protected after it is determined that the cause was the vaccines?

I warned everyone on this group about the vaccines after Fauci started pushing them as the only possible cure for such a deadly disease. Firstly, Fauci paid for the development of this virus. Secondly, it was a VERY mild flu-like illness that most people that caught it were asymptomatic with. So why was vaccination over treatment pushed? The Democrats had a fun time dragging every word that Trump spoke about the disease through the gutter when he was entirely correct. Why did the CDC find no efficacy with medications that MANY hospitals were successfully using to treat the worst cases of covid-19? Then the CDC threatened the loss of licenses to anyone that used those medications instead of vaccination?

Didn't it bother you when Pfizer gave Fauci and the heads of the NIH a half billion dollars?

The one happy spot in all of this is that in order to make me look like a fool every one of the Stupid 5 ran out and got vaccinated and will no doubt end their days from the AIDS-like syndrome that the vaccine causes.

But you have to find humor in people like Liebermann who in an attempt to make me look foolish stated that he never had Chemotherapy (which temporarily shuts down your immune system), rather, he bragged he "only" had radiation treatments. (these destroy large areas of your immune system permanently). The overriding ignorance of this group who has spent their lives attempting to make me look foolish will result in their own lives being greatly shortened. Not that people like Flunky or Slocomb would be missed.

Tim, you have been lied to by the CDC and the NIH about the vaccines and their safety. The vaccines DIRECTLY killed 10% of the people who took them. And the rates of excess death from all causes (not covid related) has shot up signaling just what I had been warning about - an AIDS-like syndrome that is incurable. Using radiation marked vaccines they have found that the vaccine does not stay in your arm as a vaccine is supposed to do but instead has been found in large number multiplying in every organ of the body including the brain causing inclusions and death.

But perhaps you should listen to "factcheckers" who tell you that everything is just peachy and that the vaccines at worst just doesn't protect you enough from that "killer disease covid-19".

Townhall is pretty good at giving links to the originals. Did you check their links? And where they don't give links, they tell you which other publication they're quoting, which usually has the links. Did you check the chain of reportage? Furthermore, Townhill always names people who make statements, did you check those names through? Demanding links is just a way for the RBT losers to pretend they are serious academics, a laughable posture. Of course, if you merely want to establish your "credentials" with the pinkocommiefellowtravellers with prissy mouth statements like "I don't consider [Townhall] credible", that is your privilege, but it does lay you open to demands that you prove they aren't credible, in which you cannot expect any help for what Tom calls the "Stupid Five" because they don't have the intellectual wherewithal to make a reasoned case, just as you haven't.

Precisely why do you suppose that they have forbidden mRNA vaccines in Australian and Switzerland?

Probably because, as usual, you're completely wrong the the extent that you post links that completely contradict your statements:

" The implications of this finding are unclear, since it is yet unknown how the spike protein evades cleavage or clearance, especially in the setting of a normal adaptive immune response, or whether in itself is pathogenic. Given myocarditis also occurs after other vaccines, it is likely that the presence of circulating spike is a biomarker rather than the causal agent."

It's hilarious seeing andre/dakota/andrew lecturing anyone on credibility.

> Townhall is pretty good at giving links to the originals. Did you check their links? And where they don't give links, they tell you which other publication they're quoting, which usually has the links. Did you check the chain of reportage? Furthermore, Townhill always names people who make statements, did you check those names through?

The first link you posted cherry picks interactions between Clayton and Musk. No links to any of musks claims about "BBC misinformation" are provided.

The second article you linked has only one link which doesn't support the Stossels claims:
- Claim: a big study failed to find evidence that wearing even good masks stops the spread of viruses.
- The study states "Authors' conclusions - The high risk of bias in the trials, variation in outcome measurement, and relatively low adherence with the interventions during the studies hampers drawing firm conclusions. "

and his references to other sensationalist claims don't withstand scrutiny either
- Claim: " U.S. Department of Energy says the pandemic most likely came from a lab leak."
- Sure they did. What you and your other magatard sheep deceitfully leave out is that they explicitly stated they had low confidence in that statement, and this from their conclusion "“Some elements of the intelligence community have reached conclusions on one side, some on the other, a number of them have said they just don't have enough information to be sure...right now, there is not a definitive answer that has emerged from the intelligence community on this question.”

- Claim: "FBI director Christopher Wray now says the origin of the pandemic is "most likely a potential lab incident in Wuhan."
- Wait, now all of a sudden you trust Biden's FBI director? I certainly do, and am confident his conclusion was reached based on his interpretation of the intelligence he had access to. Of the eight U.S. government agencies investigating the source of COVID-19 none of them are certain about the cause. Four lean toward natural causes. Two haven't taken a position, and two lean towards a lab leak - one of which was stated with the caveat of "low confidence". In the meantime the evidence produced by the scientific community points overwhelmingly to a natural cause via exposure to an infected animal.

> Demanding links is just a way for the RBT losers to pretend they are serious academics, a laughable posture.

You want laughable you fuckwit? How about "Sir Karl Popper, under whom I had the privilege of working for six months for a large section in my dissertation.". Even if you did (and we know you didn't), the only thing you learned from the interaction was how to spell his name, especially in light of the fact that you think "good science" is restricted to that which supports your perverted world view.

> Of course, if you merely want to establish your "credentials" with the pinkocommiefellowtravellers with prissy mouth statements like "I don't consider [Townhall] credible", that is your privilege, but it does lay you open to demands that you prove they aren't credible, in which you cannot expect any help for what Tom calls the "Stupid Five" because they don't have the intellectual wherewithal to make a reasoned case, just as you haven't.

To this date, you haven't once establish any level of credibility on any subject. From "batteries have lots of torque" to "tom is an articulate polymath", You display a constant complete lack of any intellectual rigor whatsoever.

So now you're going to come back with some vapid pathetic threat about your polemic skillz and how you're not done with me, after which you'll slink away with your tail between your legs like you always do:

DuckDuckGo offers privacy, but uses 400 sources which include Bing and
Wikipedia but not Google:
<https://help.duckduckgo.com/duckduckgo-help-pages/results/sources/>
"Of course, we have more traditional links and images in our search
results too, which we largely source from Bing."

<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DuckDuckGo#Search_results>
"DuckDuckGo's results are a compilation of "over 400" sources
according to itself, including Bing, Yahoo! Search BOSS, Wolfram
Alpha, Yandex, and its own web crawler (the DuckDuckBot); but none
from Google. It also uses data from crowdsourced sites such as
Wikipedia, to populate knowledge panel boxes to the right of the
search results."

Virtually ALL of the "fact check" sites that my friend the cop invariably uses to "prove me wrong" are so violently leftist that nothing from them can be trusted for even a small amount of truth.

The writer of that article Philip Meylan often will show charts showing all of the leftist sites like CNN and NBC to be very reliable. Get this absolute bull shit from him: "CNN scored an average Factual Grade of 52.8%, placing it in the 13th percentile of our dataset. The site’s low scores can be attributed to several factors, particularly poor sourcing. CNN has a tendency to almost always link to other CNN content rather than external sources. " CNN hasn't made the slightest effort to tell the truth about anything let alone Trump. He also rates Reuters as reliable and factual. Just look them up for covid.

He also holds the strong opinion that the police are systemically racist and the fact that 13% of the population commit over half of all crimes and particularly violent crimes bears no weight with him.

So I will repeat - almost ALL of the "fact check" sites are nothing more than far left opinions. They are perfectly welcome to have opinions but NOT to present them as factual.

It's your right to surrender your judgement to idiots who want to fact-check the opinions of political commentator with well-publicised leanings. Do the worker bees at "the factual" publicize their biases? I read everything from Slade on the left through the sad Never Trumpers on Nation Review to Townhall on the right, and make up my own opinion in the light of the biases of the inputs. It's not hard to do, and I certainly don't need mindlessly biased self-appointed "fact checkers". You should try doing it for yourself. -- AJ

That is a possible interpretation but I'm not sure it's correct, or at least it's not complete. I think the reality is that all humans are easily fooled, and currently the right enjoys that status more than the left, but that may be a matter of luck and timing.

The question is how to know what information sources to trust. Degreed scientist in agreement with 99.9% of his peers, vs some random dude on a sketchy youtube site? You can see my bias by how I phrased it. Others inherently distrust "intellectuals" and will always reject mainstream knowledge of any kind.

99.9% of earth scientists believe in global warming; 99% of Baptist preachers reject it. So the probabilities are equal.

That question - how to know what information sources to trust - is
almost identical to one I posted not long ago. What standards does one
use to evaluate someone else's expertise?

Internet posts make it obvious that for many people, any expert who
disagrees with them absolutely must be wrong. It doesn't matter if that
expert has had years of training, reams of certified qualifications and
decades of successful professional experience.

As long as they can find a suitable Youtube video that agrees with their
crackpot views, their confidence is unassailable. The educators,
certification granters and record keepers must be wrong!

Evidence of what they have done, helps, but, as I said elsewhere,
knowing their agenda is important.

Not necessarily wrong, but not necessarily correct, either. I need

Krygowski claims that I'm wrong and then openly lies that 99.9% of "scientists" believe in global warming. This is more proof of his extreme expertise at everything. The fact is that "99.9% of scientists" included almost NO actual climate scientists and their "agreement" is nothing more than baseless opinion. It is also noteworthy that "climate scientists" who agree with global warming are all on the government payroll and those who disagree are not. Yet more proof that Krygowski hasn't even a clue what is happening. It must be awful clutching at any straw to prove me wrong.

https://www.businessinsider.com/the-ten-most-important-climate-change-skeptics-2009-7?op=1#ivar-giaever-5

Here is what happens in Krygowski's mind - It doesn't matter that NOAA has actually changed the temperature records to "prove" man-made Climate Change. It doesn't matter that the originator of man-made global warming, Dr. Michael Mann made not ONE single correct prediction? It doesn't matter that all of the global warming predictions came not from DATA but from predictive modeling and none of the models have even come close to modeling anything. In fact the actual REAL temperature record shows very slight and normal temperature deviations. And while the national weather records show only normal temperature variation NOAA claims each succeeding year to be the "hottest on record".

It must be wonderful to be Krygowski and believe yourself an expert whose opinion is valuable when he is lying about everything.

Yep. Tom even admitted that he does everything wrong.

"I'll bet that there wasn't anything I didn't do wrong"

To be uncharacteristically fair, this was in reference to Tom setting
up the brakes on his Moser bicycle.

I don't trust any information source. They all make mistakes and most
have an agenda hidden somewhere. So, I'm stuck with sources that are
usually correct or at least provide a trail of URL's the lead back to
the original source of the information. If the trail of URL's ends in
an article that fails to disclose their sources, then the data and
conclusions are likely contrived.

Tom is unique in that he provides very few sources for his claims. The
URL's he does provide often contradict his claims or use data known to
be unreliable such as VAERS.

Another method I use is to follow the money. If the source of
information has a financial interest in having people believe and
follow their information, the information is likely to be unreliable.
I ran into this when researching my various medical maladies. I found
quite a high percentage of the research papers to be selling drugs,
procedures, books, lectures, health spas, and other money makers.
What's left is mostly government and university funded research, which
also has problems, but not as bad as the modern snake oil salesmen.

In other words, News Corp was losing subscribers and advertisers with
their former climate denial position and wanted to attract more
readers from the opposition. The investors.com editorial is from
before that change and would therefore be expected to lean heavily
toward climate change denial.

I suppose we could discuss Krugman's qualifications compared to those of
your competing economist of choice. We could also discuss their views on
specific issues. I'm not tremendously interested in details of national
economics (and those do seem unconnected with bike tech) but I'm willing
to read a bit.

Regarding Gore and Thunberg: In a sense, they're advertisers, not
authorities. They're saying "Look at this!" or "Something must be done!"
in a similar manner to Tucker Carlson. I don't take any of the three to
be authorities. I prefer to dig into relevant data. If they provide
data, I'll look into it. Ditto for Lomborg, in case you prefer him.

I have never used Thunberg or Gore as a source or justification for any

But as usual, you're arguing against what you pretend I said, rather

You're lying, Tom. I've never ever posted such a "99.9%" claim.

No, that's not a fact.

From 2009? pulleeeeze!...https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/ac2966 - "From a dataset of 88125 climate-related papers ....we examine a randomized subset of 3000 such publications. ..... we found 28 papers that were implicitly or explicitly sceptical."

28 out of 3000...can ya figure that math out, sparky?

> Here is what happens in Krygowski's mind - It doesn't matter that NOAA has actually changed the temperature records to "prove" man-made Climate Change. It doesn't matter that the originator of man-made global warming, Dr. Michael Mann made not ONE single correct prediction? It doesn't matter that all of the global warming predictions came not from DATA but from predictive modeling and none of the models have even come close to modeling anything. In fact the actual REAL temperature record shows very slight and normal temperature deviations. And while the national weather records show only normal temperature variation NOAA claims each succeeding year to be the "hottest on record".

Completely wrong, as usual.....Mann published an updated hockey stick graph on Sept. 28, 2021 https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2112797118.

The new graph confirms the reliability of the original. Dr Robin Lamboll, Research Associate in Climate Science and Policy, Imperial College London states “The stick head has grown taller as we have continued to warm – as predicted – for the last 22 years. The different ways to estimate historic climates have become more numerous, but all with broadly the same message, and so the conclusions of the original graph have become only more solid since 1999.”

When you're a sack of shit that states things that your college denies, exactly how trustful do you think that Krygowski is? And WHY did the college change what Frank taught from industrial engineering WHICH IS NOT mechanical engineering to engineering technology which again is not mechanical engineering.

Now I don't doubt for a moment that Frank taught mechanical engineering but some one at Youngstown doesn't like Francis and has made that very clear. So his bullshit has strongly affected other people. When you lie for a living it comes back to haunt you.

A few continue to say what they think regardless, cf Judith Curry or
Roger Pielke Jr. Pielke in particular doesn't say anything that far out
of the alarmist orthodoxy at all, but any deviation is enough to deserve
ostracism, deplatforming, and probably death.

I was struck by the phrase "earth scientists". As far as I know no one
has published a survey of earth scientists in particular, they usually
try for the largest tent possible. It's my impression that geologists and
meteorologists seem to be likelier to quibble than, say, biologists.

Finally, there is an actual scientific test for whom to credit. Those
that make surprisingly successful predictions win. I just don't see a
lot of climate science successes here.

With all due respect, that has nothing to do with my comments. I
wasn't commenting on the content of the investors.com and
businessinsider.com articles. I was commenting on who was delivering
the investors.com point of view and their probable position on climate
change.

Meanwhile, I have a dilemma. I believe that socialism is a lousy
solution to most problems while I'm partially living on SSI
(Supplemental Security Income) and Medicare. For now, it doesn't get
more socialist. I suspect a partial answer will arrive this summer.
If we continue with last summers heat waves and wildfires, it will be
obvious that climate change is real. To fix the climate, we will need
to make some rather major sacrifices for the general good. Right now,
socialism looks like the least disgusting answer to get people to do
something they really don't want to do. It won't be a people's
republic, but might be a democratic socialist approximation:

A number of the supporters of this group also have ties to fossil fuel lobbyists and free-market groups that have previously been against green policies and climate action.
In the list of 1200 signatories of this particular declaration, a number of signatories are from the oil and gas industry, and eight have been found to be former or current shell corporation employees, according to David Vetter, Forbes Sustainability Senior Contributor.

The Declaration itself has decided to focus on a few issues regarding climate change, but has failed to provide any scientific or statistical backing to their own claims."

Good points, Radey.

Michael Mann, the inventor of the now totally discredited "hockey stick" which was supposed to "prove" global warming, is dendrochronologist -- you can bet he knew he was using the wrong sort of trees to "prove" that the Medieval Warm Period and the Little Ice Age never existed, and too few of them, and he certainly deliberately screwed the statistics. He was condemned for these crimes under oath before the US Senate by Drs Wegman and North, respectively the chairmen of their eponymous committees, the North Committee specifically constituted by the NAS to defend Mann from the US Senate! Under oath, mark that. With the MWP and the LIA still extant, there can be no proof whatsoever of so-called manmade global warming. Here are their condemnations of Mann, under oath, to the United States Congress, quoted from the official record.

I give much less credit to a particular heat wave or wildfire than to
long term data. And there are now mountains of long term data confirming
the ongoing changes, from countless different sources.

The first one I recall encountering was decades ago, before climate
became a hot topic. It was a short article about an examination of
British farmers' personal records. As I recall, the article said farmers
were obviously concerned with the dates of each year's final frost, and
noted it in their journals. Someone had examined hundreds of those
journals and found that final frosts had grown consistently later and
later in years since the 1800s. I recall thinking "That doesn't sound
good."

But to me, the most obvious long term data is the size of glaciers
around the world. There is no serious doubt that almost all glaciers are
receding. I've hiked in Banff (Valley of Six Glaciers) and seen historic
photos to compare with modern scenery, and I've seen countless photos of
similar situations around the world.

And while it's local, our best weatherman has commented on changing
temperature records. If we were in a steady state situation, the random
changes in weather would mean new record low temperatures would be as
common as new record high temperatures. But as he's pointed out, almost
all of our new daily records for a given date (including two set in the
past few days) are record highs. We're seldom seeing new record lows for
a date.

There are countless other indicators, but I don't see how those three
simple facts above are hard to understand. If someone says those and
countless other data that point in the same direction indicate nothing,
it must be willing and dedicated disbelief.

I don't know. Truly, I do not. Nor do you.

But there are daily, seasonal and annual cycles above spiky
seemingly chaotic 'events'. There are solar 11-year
sunspot/energy cycles and probably other cyclic variations.

Predicting anything 100 years hence is unlikely at best,
given known historical(within human history) anomalies
(various Warm Periods, various Little Ice Ages) and known
major climate fluctuations (where did those glaciers come
from anyway? Why is there coal? Why do the plentiful frozen

There are lots of influences. The data we have is showing the aggregated
effects of them all. The effects are essentially all moving in the same
direction.

One thing you imply is true: We can't predict with certainty the
ultimate effects of this unintended global experiment. There are serious
concerns about the potential for a sudden weakening of the Gulf Stream,
which might freeze Europe. There are similar concerns regarding
Antarctic ocean currents. If we move earth's climate into a new regime,
there could conceivably be frozen bison with buttercups in their bellies.

That does not mean our current situation and/or our current practices
are just fine.

I was reading some of that last night:

Sure. A few volcanoes every few years, where the shading effect last
for decades and sometimes on a global scale, could produce something
that looks like a long term frost, drought, flooding, etc. For
example, the winter of 536 lasted for "several" years:

"536 AD: The Year That The Sun Disappeared"

into another ice age. Global Cooling (yet another conspiracy):

Because few people want to believe that the climate is actually
changing. That includes me, who initially was a global warming
skeptic. I want things to return to normal, therefore I believe the
theory that supports my beliefs. Despite all the research, I keep
looking for the evidence, data or error that demonstrates that climate
change isn't real. So far, I haven't found it, but I'll keep looking.

There are tens of thousands of them spanning hundreds of
miles of area with fresh flowers undigested. People (braver
than I) have actually eaten mastodon meat which was
preserved flash-frozen. That doesn't mesh with 'climate
change' to me but rather a sudden catastrophic event.

Err.... While you didn't say it, I assume from you frequent mention of
"left" that all "right" fact checkers must be 100% true. Is that what
you are trying to say?

If so then you must be wrong as you are about as right" as it is
possible to get, short of the "National Socialist German Workers'
Party" (1920 - 1945) and your lies are, to say the least, overwhelming
in volume. What was the current count? 4 truths in 17 years? Or was it
5?

He was condemned for these crimes under oath before the US Senate by Drs Wegman and North, respectively the chairmen of their eponymous committees, the North Committee specifically constituted by the NAS to defend Mann from the US Senate! Under oath, mark that. With the MWP and the LIA still extant, there can be no proof whatsoever of so-called manmade global warming. Here are their condemnations of Mann, under oath, to the United States Congress, quoted from the official record.

Completely wrong, as usual.....Mann published an updated hockey stick graph on Sept. 28, 2021 https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2112797118.

“The stick head has grown taller as we have continued to warm – as predicted – for the last 22 years. The different ways to estimate historic climates have become more numerous, but all with broadly the same message, and so the conclusions of the original graph have become only more solid since 1999.” - Dr Robin Lamboll, Research Associate in Climate Science and Policy, Imperial College London

None of my right leaning friends do any fact checking at all. While I try to be polite, occasionally one of their claims is so wacko that I gently explain the facts. Generally they are honestly shocked - it had never occurred to them to question what they had been told, no matter how crazy the claim or crackpot the source.

In contrast, my left leaning friends are less likely to fact check depending on A) how far left they are and B) how indignant the claim makes them. But there is a distinct difference if you have the conversation with them. They are less resistant to changing their mind, and often embarassed they had been fooled.

In any field there are crackpots who defy the common wisdom. Occasionally they are right. But it is so rare you can safely disregard them most if not all of the time.

Nope. Any scientist who could present data to overturn any popular theory would win the Nobel, be courted by every major university, win fame and fortune. A biologist who could overturn evolution, a climate scientist who could overturn global warming, could write their own ticket. The catch is they would have to have actual verifiable repeatable data, not opinions from some random crackpot on the internet.

Where do you suppose that those motor vehicles and huge jet aircraft spewing contaminants and tons of CO2 into the atmosphere came from to cause global warming and later frosts were in the 18th century? We know that this is caused by orbital mechanics but even though there hasn't been ANY unusual heating whatsoever, Greenland has again iced over and the Northsea Passage NEVER melted on command from Michael Mann, we have Krygowski citing the supposed weather diaries of of English farmers (most of whom were illiterate and could not tell you the exact time of year). You see, the Stupid 5 simply do not care if they are lying or stupid or uneducated. Krygowski has already told us that if a man with a degree says something it is the Truth, the Whole Truth, and nothing but the Truth.

This entire group should be slapped silly. But someone else has already beaten me to it - their own stupid leadership. An ass by any other name still passes crap.

Tim where do you get 'the facts"? Do you believe that you should have been vaccinated? The fact is that there are large increases in deaths only in vaccinated people. Do you think that the Big Pharma dream of turning your own body into a drug factory was a good idea? Big Pharma well knew the dangers and so they used the pandemic to ask for and get legal immunity for mistakes. In a 2017 paper Pfizer tried mRNA development and everything died. You know that nothing changed - they were just protected while they "developed" it.

I remember that. I didn't change anything because of it then, and I'm
not going to change anything because of the global-warming propaganda
now.

Is that what you remember?

Did you somehow forget the links I posted to videos of middle-aged,
pot-bellied men demonstrating their combat prowess with their AR? They
did that by shooting at man-shaped targets, running a few steps to
shelter of a building, shooting another target, running to more cover,
shooting another target.

After posting those, I asked what you thought the dweebs in question
were doing, if not pretending to be Rambo. You never answered.

Wow. It's obvious where Tom gets his "facts." To state it as politely as
possible, they are internally generated.

But Tom, feel free to prove me wrong. Show us your citation for "there

I'd call that normal target practice. LE actually requires
that at regular intervals with minimum standards for
accuracy on center of mass. (note most LE, as most firearms
owners overall, never point a weapon at a human in their
lifetime.)

Or would you rather have firearms owners utterly unfamiliar
with their equipment?

If the equipment is something designed for rapidly killing multiple

Mass killing. What a weird thing to practice!

That's not what has happened in the past. Scientists, who were ahead
of their times by offering what was then considered crackpot theories,
were usually marginalized, denounced or ignored.

I think sometimes stuff brings it home, probably not climate change at
least planetary but habitat, I remember the valley I grew up in would fill
and darken on flying ant afternoon, still happens but it’s something that
you could miss rather than being a event.

Or insects splattered on cars and so on.

That not to say all signs are bad, the non common land (grazing open hills)
is returning ie the woods are retaking back first with scrub land and then
with trees.

Most if not all of the Welsh hills should be forest not barren Heath lands
for grazing sheep.

In the last ten years some 357 people including children were killed in mass murders. During that 10 years period a third of a million people were killed by guns. Frank with his crawling on his belly like a reptile logic uses 1/10th of a percent of the gun deaths to justify his position of taking all guns away from everyone.

I was approached by a woman that wanted me to sign a petition to stop cutting down 165,000 trees a day world wide. She LIVES in a wooden house in an Earthquake area in which stone houses are death traps. But she wants to eliminate lumber! Most of the world used wood as a source of cooking fuel. And without a thought in her head she would end the lumber business. It angered me so much I could only be polite to her and say no thankyou.

If you wish for the return of forests you have to replant native species. They grow remarkably fast, especially the evergreens. Around in California they replanted with Australian Eucalyptus which cause massive forest fires even when wet. Make a contract with loggers - for every tree they cut down they are required to plant two. This causes regrowth and large business for the laborers and the nurserymen.
