You're the comic around here. Desperately hanging on to your woke ideology while it is crumbling around you. The tide is turning my friend.

"I stood there, trying to process it all, feeling like I’d entered some Kafkaesque nightmare." Kafka, Orwell, thought crime...... Welcome to 1984 in 2024.

You haven't posted any facts, just your opinions. Bye now.

That argument works both ways. The financial backing for the scientists you believe in comes from where? Mostly from governments, to promote their Net Zero narrative. Do you think they're going to risk having the money taps turned off by producing research that goes against the narrative? If the pandemic taught us anything it's that at least 50% of published scientific research is not worth the paper it's written on.

https://clintel.org/world-climate-declaration/ 1,960 is more than a few.

There are plenty of scientists who disagree with the consensus view on climate change. Are you saying that non-scientists cannot make a judgement on which group they choose to believe?

Probably no more than you. What's your point?

I just wanted to be sure you were talking about 'The Science' which 97% of the world's experts agree on (allegedly).

He denies there's a climate?

She was a good judge of character.

Perhaps you'd be happier in North Korea, Comrade? no scrounging there.

1. Clean up the corruption in our government health agencies. 2. Return those agencies to their rich tradition of gold-standard, evidence-based science. 3. Make America Healthy Again by ending the chronic disease epidemic What's not to like? As the unhealthiest developed country in the world, the USA can only benefit from these policies if RFK Jr can see them through. That's why Big Pharma is running scared and getting their paid media propagandists to drag up every slur about him they can find.

You're wasting your breath. Don't feed the troll. He's an apologist for woke ideology (or possibly a Russian bot).

My apologies, you're correct on the source of the article. I agree with your comments on the NYT - they equally apply to CNN, the BBC and most mainstream media outlets in the West. However, those ideas based on identity politics are almost exclusively propagated by those on the left of the political spectrum, pulling in many in the political centre who feel they have to comply or be ostracised by their peers. Witness the absurd spectacle of politicians and sportsmen 'taking the knee' in deference to the corrupt scam known as Black Lives Matter (reported on today in another thread).

...and that nice Gareth Southgate.

It's the New York Post, not the Times. I think you mean the NYT has been captured by left wing journalists, but the sentence is a bit confusing.

I thought the job of the UN Secretary-General was to try to resolve conflicts between members by diplomacy i.e. talking to the leaders of the nations concerned. The OP suggests that he should only be talking to those leaders approved by NATO and the US. While I agree that he may not be very good at his job, asking him to do it with one hand tied behind his back is a ludicrous proposal. You might as well disband the UN immediately.

"This has raised concerns about the accuracy of life expectancy estimates, particularly as Ms. Leadbeater’s bill may define terminal illness as having a prognosis of six to 12 months."

Of course prognosis is not an exact science. Everyone should have the right to choose to end their own life once they have a terminal illness, regardless of how long doctors predict they will have to suffer.

A fraction of the vast sums of money wasted on pointless wars which are threatening our survival as a species.

Put these eco-fascists in jail and throw away the key! And take away their iPhones (mostly made of oil).

He's talking bollux, as usual.

"Anything that can't grow anymore will decay and die. The EU can't grow anymore. It will die." The ultimate goal of any bureaucracy is expansion of its own power. The EU seems to have reached 'peak power grab', any new attempts to extends its tentacles will be rebuffed by member states. I don't think it will die, It will ensure its own survival in a different form. Perhaps, as suggested above, we might even go back to a common market!

"the European Union (EU) is increasingly adopting a more closed and ethnocentric understanding of “Europeanness,” What the EU doesn't understand is that to preserve Europeanness you have to keep Europe European (Viktor Orban gets it).

More than likely before the next general election, although you won't hear any discussion of the subject in the corporate media. For a foretaste of this exact scenario in another European country read Michel Houllebeq's 'Submission'.
