re: #584 Charles

One thing I really find hard to understand — why so many people are willing to parrot the denial industry’s claims, without having a single clue about the real issues.

They just KNOW those tricksy scientists are lying to them.

Tricksy. Evil. Scientists. We’d be so much better off without them and their lies.

Fear of change? Fear of science? Advertising dollars? The tendency of mass media to try to maintain “balance” when “the other side” is telling blatant lies and it is not noted? Rush Limbaugh? Faux News? James Imhofe?

Really, I’m not surprised at all. Sheeple. The Great Unwashed. My Fellow Americans. God Fearing, Willfully Ignorant Idjits.
