Wanna-B-Fanboy

Good for Apple, now if only Google play would follow suit. No need to help the app author profit off of ignorance and spread lies.

This is the conservative playbook- I remember seeing something like this from a conservative think tank... I wanna say... Rove? Anyways- it's funny, because this isn't a liberal viewpoint- it's ******* science. Not sure why this needs to be political. Hmmm, looks like I was wrong about the Karl Rove penned tactics- it seems it's unknown: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/did-karl-rove-write-tactics-conservative-blogging/ But it pretty much what you are talking about:

You are not a sensible realist- you just parrot misinformation and spread lies (inadvertently it seems). You make erroneous equivalences between fact and disinformation. I am not sure if you are trying to muddy the waters here- but you should use credible sources if you want to discuss this serious issue.

Yup, and soon enough, like all the other threads- he will get this one locked down. it's his M.O.

I don't think confirmation bias straw man argument you repeatedly trot out is the issue here- its the constant parading around and spreading lies and misrepresentations you post- there is a pattern at work here. You come up and post the latest and greatest lie (I don't think you believe it is a lie, I'm not calling you a liar-let's be very clear here) and when people show you the courtesy of reading the link that you have posted and respond informing you that it is a lie/misinformation/bad information, even providing you links with corrections and well sourced material that refutes the misinformation you post, you refuse to show the same courtesy by reading what they provide and accuse everyone of confirmation bias. That's why people think it's a waste of time to read your links and engage with you in a discussion over what you have posted. It has NOTHING to do with confirmation bias. The confirmation bias you are talking about might be your own that you project onto others. But I do still read what you post. I do read the links you post. I try to respond to your posts. I don't view it as a waste of time- frustrating, but not a waste of time. You put the time in to post, so I will give them the courtesy they deserve and hope you do the same in return.

The fact that these organizations and people have differing opinions is not what is at issue here... it the fact that these are non-reputable organizations and people who continue to spread misinformation. You held up James Taylor's op-ed as definitive proof that the scientific consensus is false. Yet James is either woefully stupid or just evil because he completely misrepresents what the authors have said (which is par for the course with most of the information you usually provide as PROOF!). The authors even responded, many critics point out to many of the flaws in his misrepresentation of the work in his op-ed yet, he continues to publish it in the Heartland Institute after all the backlash. Also here ( i know its a waste of time, because you won't even read the link) this is the response to the lies you are spreading: http://www.climatesciencewatch.org/2013/02/14/james-taylor-misinterprets-study-by-180-degrees/

I thought it was the perfect equivalent. I fail to see him being "so dramatic".

Yeah- 3 years too late. Must be an election year. I hate the fact they decided to hold back the percent drop so they could use it as a political bribe. they could have easily dropped that PST at the begining of their mandate.

Good, looks like the peer review process is working as intended. Thanks for your contribution.

That is not framing it- it's a quote. One that is very clear in it's context. That's kind of what happens in peer review and the scientific process- it's a moving target, you are always correcting errors as new data comes up. just because some data is wrong doesn't mean you through out ALL the research.

I am a fan of a self contained episode that touches on the season arc- it's pretty good storytelling. You get the immediate gratification every week of a one and done plus investment in the larger story and character development. Though- bring back to life the dude through the mushroom network... that was a bit bunk.

Totally does. They are paid to lie. Those 'eco terrorist" are much more reliable than those big oil paid shills.

Counter punch and KNOCKOUT! nice article. thanks for that.

You mean the easing of sanctions so that Iran wouldn't develop nukes?

Wait... what? who's giving Iran Nukes? And why the deflection?

This an awesome list

Interesting- so you think trump should get a pass? And govern in an unchecked capacity because he was elected ?

Odd- the LEap Manifesto seems like common sense from what I have read.

True true. But the justice system decides who goes to prison.

I think that's what he means- the trump as mob boss and treating the presidency as a side hustle is getting out of hand.

Are you talking about the Leap Manifesto and those who support it?

I would be happy with a Liberal minority propped up by the NDP. There needs to be some better checks and balances.

Holy shitballs. Lybian dictator and prostitutes.... JT? I need some links.

Or- I just don't buy into the Hyperbole and respond in kind. Also- I think I am pretty numb when it comes to political scandals- I have been following the USA politics since the primaries in '15- you need to cut me some slack here. 😀 This may be big- time will tell. Did JT do anything wrong here, if so- what specifically? I am honestly a bit ignorant here in regards to each parties respective roles. ANywyas- no offense taken, my previous post was cheeky.

I have to disagree- this doesn't even crack the top 500 "where we you when" days. it doesn't even beat out Pete Davidson and Ariana Grande's engagement announcement- and it certainly doesn't beat out their subsequent break up. (I was picking up my son from the Y and the latter I was at Costco)
