JustinCharge 2,397 Posted September 20, 2019 Actually the left wing not only tries to ruin the careers of their opponents in the private sector with iron fist authoritarian moves likes bans and exclusions, but they accuse the right wing of being evil authoritarians. That gives them political cover because if the accusation gets thrown about in both directions, it becomes noise and people stop listening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You may be right about the Dems overstating it, probably because it’s a difference with the GOP. Trump’s climate change denial is further outside the mainstream IMO.

I haven’t heard the party pushing gender fluidity stuff but I admittedly haven’t watched the debates or paid a lot of attention to the race yet. I don't think a group of Republican candidates would have spent 7 hours on climate change, and I'm confident if they did, centrist CNN wouldn't host it. I think most people acknowledge that the climate changes, it's the amount and the degree to which we influence it. So let's agree that "anthropomorphic climate alarmism" is a fringe issue. I don't know to what extent gender stuff is a formal part of the Democrat platform, but Washington State (Dem governor Jay Inslee) enacted that gender neutral vocabulary law, as an example.

It will be interesting to see whether climate change comes up in the presidential debates next year and how the candidates respond. You’ll probably have the Dem pushing a nonstarter like the New Green Deal and Trump denying that manmade emissions play any role at all. I’m not sure either one of those positions is more or less fringe than the other one. I don’t think gender neutral language is really fringe but it’s definitely not a major issue or anything I’d prioritize. I doubt you’re going to hear much about it in Dem debates.

Baker Boy 1,489 Posted September 20, 2019 0% of carbon emissions is man made. The carbon has been on this planet since it was created. It was once in the air and was captured by plants that later turned into coal and oil. Man is just releasing back into the air what was once there in the first place. Right now there is about 380ppm of CO2 in the air. In the past it was over 5000ppm and the earth did just fine. No tipping point.

Hardcore troubadour 12,734 Posted September 20, 2019 Why would anyone listen to the left at this point on matters of science? Just recently they told us there are 82 different genders. And then they used to claim that performing an abortion was not ending a human life, it was just a clump of cells. I guess "aborting" (murdering) an infant after it is born is not ending a human life. The Fockin bible does a better job of explaining things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
