I mostly enjoy reading this thread, especially when nonsense is spouted. I don't usually comment but the "Climate warming is due to the Earth being closest to the sun in 13,000 years" is a new one.

Did my "own research", turns out that's drivel
That's where you went wrong- researching wild claims.
 
still trying to get your head round days of the week? then there`s the months thing which is a bit tougher to fathom.

....and wait till you graduate to the cycle of seasons! it`s a mind wrecker!

leave the "plants absorb co2 and expel oxygen" thing for a while though, the science on it is in its infancy. some lunatic has called it - you`ll love this one, "photosynthesis" - ?- you couldn`t make it up! madness!
Interesting.

What happens when the rate of CO2 production increases at an equal or greater rate than deforestation?
 
tough one that but we got legal advice which is always a good thing nowadays because you don`t want to end up in the slammer for drinking 2 cans of fizzy pops in one day.

anyway.....

the maximum of 5 people for Christmas what Boris Johnson said was obviously a problem - we got round that by getting a 75m dining table so everyone could stay 2m apart.

i wouldn`t wear 6 face-masks, i thought 2 were quite sufficient so you can imagine the scenario - anyway, my Auntie rang the police to ask them what we should do about it and the Cop said "you are policed and governed by consent" whatever that means!

...anyway to cut a long story short i had a loverly Turkey Crimbo dinner with all the trimmings. true story.
Alone.

Uncle Knobhead will probably claim they are paid off and the author had his probation extended.
 
You didn’t reply to me when I asked about the independent journos you get your info from.

Genuinely interested as it might give me a different insight on certain topics that the mainstream media doesn’t give.
Larry Elder is quite good - Thomas Sowell is one of the best- there`s loads of commentators/authors giving their views on the culture war/grifting
 
I think when people are as far down the rabbit hole as oddball you need to leave them to find their bottom, much like an addict until they hit that bottom they can't be turned around.

In the meantime simply don't give him any energy, don't respond, don't engage. You can't debate climate science with someone too stupid to understand the carbon cycle or the implications of the keeling curve, and you can't educate someone so deluded he thinks he knows more than Carl sagan did, simply leave him be to find his own path.

You also can't educate through shame, you'll just get push back and they become more entrenched. You have to be patient and hope they can see that right wingers with no editorial process making millions from them has its own explanation.
the country bumpkins that try to bait me do dis-engage but only until someone like you with a bit of "scientific jargon" pops up to reignite their fuses.
then they explode into another bout of "we`ve got him this time"
they think i`m a political animal that needs taking down so they`ll always come back for more- don`t waste your time on them, they`re in a cult, they see themselves on a mission to eradicate "wrong think"

i`m open to being educated - school me, don`t just link rubbish like Carl Sagan who is a z-list author of tosh and that Mickey Mouse "carbon curve" piffle.

you do know the famous "hockey-stick" graph was debunked ages ago don`t you.

if you think the simpletons in this thread can educate me then fine but first they`ll have to understand that the Earth has vast cycles and that plants absorb co2 meaning the more plants/trees there are the more co2 absorbed.

anyone with half a brain knows we need to stop habitat destruction for quite a few reasons.

talking of money and making millions- who pays the "climate scientists" and would they be out of a job if they didn`t follow the narrative
 
Both interesting reads on the grift of Black Republicans courting white voters with prejudiced/racist views. So crazy.
