re: #17 ozbloke

And I’ve been meaning to ask you because I really don’t understand it. I know that people in the states are worked up enough by shit like the right wing media and fox news to make death threats to scientists here, but why in Australia? I mean, what is the political dynamic there that allows this? I thought that the average Aussie was a little more willing to trust science than the typical American. Obviously this is not so. What do you think is going on?
