I love AOC- she's awesome. Her ideas are great and she seems to be a champion for the middle/working class. Also- because she is a young, non-white, woman in an elected position of power- she is the new Alt-right boogeyman. LOVE it. Everytime she speaks- Alt-right head's explode.

Why can't I ask questions? Why is it always such a threat when anything is questioned? Why are people so scared of questions? Ask questions- absolutely. But your questions are disingenuous- they are not meant to promote discussion or further a scientific cause - it's always cherry-picking a small data point and discarding THE ENTIRE theory that thousands of scientists agree upon. It is a threat when people try and sow doubt and are unwitting participants of a disinformation campaign. It's like all those people that sowed doubt on cigarette smoking severely increases your chances at lung and heart disease- it's ****. So yeah- people should be scared of that, when disinformation on sound science leads us away from making good decisions from an evidence based approach. and the stakes are considerably higher now. 16 minutes ago, kelownabomberfan said: LOL - whatever lets you sleep at night.

Really? That's your opinion, and that's fine, but that's just your opinion. Quote she was just trying to draw a parallel between how the Whole of America can together and worked together after Pearl Harbour was bombed- which is true, it';s going to take everyone pulling together to combat AGW. No hyperbole there. World War 2 was a cataclysmic event that resulted in the death of tens of millions of people. To compare an unproven scientific hypothesis to that war is not only hyperbole, is incredibly disrespectful. It's virtue-signaling and dog whistling to her base. I've been reading a lot about how Trump started and how AOC is now starting, and it is horrifyingly similar. They both make outrageously silly statements, and outright lie as the WaPo pointed out, and yet their base just shrugs and accepts it. Then the other side goes bananas and calls the person all kinds of names, which just endears them further to their base. AOC = Trump on so many levels its actually kind of scary. Quote The Pinocchios were for her statement about the 21 trillion being absorbed by pentagon spending- which is wrong. Is that what you were refering to? yes, but there's been so many other blatant lies that have been just "shrugged off" by her base. It's really scary. Quote But they do have that money though... you just need to shift priories. So laugh all you want- it is possible. oh man, and laugh I do. I love how the gender pay gap is "a complex issue", as is so many other invented and imaginary problems that are purely designed to create a victim complex of a sub-group, but yet, finding $40 trillion to blow on far left dreams and rainbows is simple. You just need to "shift priories" (sic). Yes, it's just that easy. I just burst out laughing every time I read this. I am glad we have free health care, as I will need to get some pain-killers for my sore ribs. Quote Thanks for your nonsensical reply- always appreciate it.

But your questions are disingenuous- This comment is right up there with the term "alternative facts". "Disingenuous questions". There is no such thing. There are "disingenuous statements", such as saying that there are "hundreds of billions of dollars" of clean-up costs in Alberta from abandoned wells. This is not true. Not even remotely true. Just like saying the FA in Fort Chip have high rate of cancer. Not true. And yet these comments were made. And no "enlightened" person even questioned these comments, other than Mark, who did the research. Questioning bizarre and false statements is not "disingenuous". It is just that. Asking questions. I will repeat my previous comment - why does questioning false statements make certain people so uncomfortable? Why? Is it because no one questions you? Are you just not capable of answering questions? Quote "LOL" good discourse, good discourse. you keep it up- smug looks good on you. and being a cowardly Orwellian NPC berating people for asking simple questions and calling out false statements looks really bad on you.
