The Daily Stormer is still here, but barely. No one can find us unless they know the address. It cant be linked anywhere and it cant be spoken of. Elon Musks claim that he was going to allow free speech on Twitter turned out to be total bullshit. The war that started in 2017 with the censoring of the Daily Stormer ended in 2023 when Elon capitulated to allowing the ADL to run Twitter. Of course, there is always something that needs to be silenced, so these anti-hate censorship groups are now moving on to silencing people who say that windmills are not efficient. CNN is of course on the frontlines of justifying an entire new front in the American mass censorship program: If youve been on YouTube lately, you might have come across someone claiming wind and solar energy dont work, that rising sea levels will help coral reefs flourish, or that climate scientists are corrupt and alarmist. These are all false and misleading statements taken from a handful of thousands of YouTube videos analyzed by the nonprofit Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH), which has identified a stark change in the tactics of climate deniers over the past few years. Where once climate deniers would outright reject climate change as a hoax or scam, or claim that humans were not responsible for it, many are now shifting to a different approach, one which attempts to undermine climate science, cast doubt on climate solutions and even claim global warming will be beneficial at best, harmless at worst. Yes. The globe is warming regardless, because were at the tail-end of an ice age as a result of the solar cycle. Obviously, warmer weather is better in every way. Its virtually impossible to die from heat. Warm weather means every type of abundance, which is why brown people are so reproductively successful. If warm weather is bad, why not have the debate? Presumably, the same reason you wont have a debate about whether Jewish domination of America is a good thing. However, the claim is that it cant be talked about because this is a democracy, and therefore the voting public has to be protected from wrong ideas in order to prevent them from voting the wrong way. Personally, I would prefer an authoritarian governmental system that allowed for personal freedom of thought and open inquiry. The idea that democracy means you cant have any open discussion about any controversial topic because it could make people vote the wrong way makes democracy nonviable, in my opinion. The past five years have seen a startling rise in this new denial, according to a CCDH analysis published Tuesday, which also suggests this shift in narrative could also be helping YouTube video creators circumvent the social media companys ban on monetizing climate denial. Researchers gathered transcripts from more than 12,000 videos posted between 2018 and 2023 across 96 YouTube channels that have promoted climate denial and misinformation. Transcripts were analyzed by artificial intelligence to categorize the climate denial narratives used as either old denial or new denial. New denial content attacks on solutions, the science and the climate movement now makes up 70% of all climate denial claims posted on YouTube, according to the report, up from 35% in 2018. Classic old denial claims that global warming isnt happening declined from 48% of all denial claims in 2018 to 14% in 2023, the report found. Claims that climate solutions wont work, however, soared from 9% to 30% over the same period. Personally, Im an old denialist and a new denialist. I still deny that humans are capable of changing the weather in any significant way by increasing greenhouse gasses by a fraction of 1%.

They're not. The EROI (energy returned on energy invested) is negative before my buddy Rainman and the other truckdrivers get done hauling the lime dust for ground stabilization. They don't. Look at Texas a couple years ago. They're not rising. They're just chasing grant money. They are corrupt.
HERETIC!!!! Burn the unbeliever!!! /s
Please do. This global warming is freezing me to death. The heat would be welcome. This is the first day it's been in the double digit temps in I don't know how long, it's 18 right now. I did some contract research work for companies around 2010 +/-... Solar sucks. Too expensive, too unreliable. Smart meters preclude grid- tie installations.
