The Latest Climate Lie-ence: The Usual Suspects - Working Up the Usual Fiction
The Climate Change Freaks: Consistently Incorrect
Global warming - oops,…I mean climate change - is The Greatest Scam on Earth. It is a giant lie - perpetrated by some of the world’s biggest frauds.
Being Leftist means never having to say you're sorry. The climate change liars have been caught lying and falsifying and manipulating data too many times to count. They have been so wrong so often on so many things.
And yet The Establishment continues to take them gravely seriously. It’s a joke. A huge, unfunny, accidental attempt at humor.
One of the climate change Left’s biggest bete noires - is the biggest oil company on the planet, ExxonMobil. Exxon is currently suffering a years-long, multi-pronged Leftist attack. The climate freaks keep coming up empty - but they simply retrench and return to lie another day.
The Leftists are working an inside-out-outside-in approach. They have Leftist elected officials bringing governments to bear - while coordinating with outside Leftist groups, and the Leftist foundation funders. How do we know this?
NY’s Government Assault on Exxon: Coordinated in Advance with Leftist Groups: “(O)n Exxon, (New York Democrat Attorney General Eric) Schneiderman ain’t the lead attack dog – the Rockefeller Foundation is: ‘The Rockefeller Family Foundation (which has an endowment of about $130 million) has long targeted the oil industry and honed in on ExxonMobil last January….’
“The (Rockefeller January meeting’s) agenda was to ‘establish in the public’s mind that Exxon is a corrupt institution that has pushed humanity (and all creation) toward climate chaos and grave harm’ and to ‘delegitimize’ Exxon as a political actor….Participants at the meeting included activist groups like Greenpeace and Public Citizen, and trial lawyers who have won judgments against the industry before….
“The ultimate goal would include ‘getting discovery’ from ExxonMobil through legal action brought by public officials, thus ‘creating scandal’ around the country.”
The latest salvo against Exxon - was happily water-carried by the utterly ridiculous New York Times.
What Exxon Mobil Didn’t Say About Climate Change
In which co-screed-ers Geoffrey Supran and Naomi Oreskes try the Left’s (at least) fifth new attempt to say that Exxon knew about actual cataclysmic climate change (there isn’t any), that they failed to disclose what they knew (which is hard to do with nothing) - and that all of the above represents a criminal act of some sort or other.
This is a stretch so far - as to leave Gumby, Plastic Man and Reed Richards all gaping in awe.
Our co-auteurs - quickly give away their game: “Part of the impetus for these suspicions was reporting by Inside Climate News and The Los Angeles Times in 2015 that concluded Exxon Mobil had long known about the risks of climate change but denied them in public.”
The Los Angeles Times and Inside Climate News, you say? Bizarrely, our co-creators - admit to their tightly-closed-circle Leftist scam:
“Today, we are publishing the results of our peer-reviewed analysis in the journal Environmental Research Letters. To our knowledge, this is the first academic, empirical analysis of Exxon Mobil’s 40-year history of climate change communications. (Our research was funded by Harvard University Faculty Development Funds and by the Rockefeller Family Fund, which also helped finance the reporting by Inside Climate News and the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism, which published its examination of Exxon Mobil with The Los Angeles Times.)”
Get that? The Leftist Rockefeller Foundation paid for a bunch of Leftist hackery that they attempted to dress up as “news.”
The Leftist Rockefeller Foundation then takes that bunch of Leftist hack news - for which they paid. And pretend it serves as an impetus for a hack study - for which they paid - of the Leftist paid-for hack news - for which they paid.
In case you think we're joking - here’s the study:
Assessing ExxonMobil's Climate Change Communications (1977–2014): “We examine whether these (ExxonMobil) communications sent consistent messages about the state of climate science and its implications—specifically, we compare their positions on climate change as real, human-caused, serious, and solvable. In all four cases, we find that as documents become more publicly accessible, they increasingly communicate doubt.
Almost forty years - and these clowns come up with four cases. On which they have no definitive proof - only “doubt.”
And “doubt” about climate change - is quite understandable. For a whole host of reasons. The lies. The data manipulation. The prolonged, pronounced wrongness.
And there’s this. Back in the 1970s - when these clowns started their peek into Exxon - the avalanche of “news” headlines…was of the looming, impending Ice Age. Here’s seventy-one such stories - just for starters.
That Ice Age - never materialized. Just as the cataclysmic warming of which the likes of these two have more recently shrieked - hasn’t materialized. Yet the shrieking continues unabated.
This Leftist-funded “study” - allegedly predicated by their Leftist-funded fake news - is just the latest in a long line of climate lies foisted upon us by a Socialist-Communist Left that doesn’t like free markets, or companies that excel therein.
Here’s my global climate prediction: This newest, perhaps-lamest attempt at smearing ExxonMobil - will go absolutely nowhere. Just like all the others.
