The word "denial" -- meaning refusal or withholding -- entered the English language from Old French hundreds of years ago, but it gained linguistic muscle with A.A. Brill's translation of the Austrian father of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud, in the early 20th century.

how about LIAR, HOAXTER, DECEIVER, BOBBLHEADS, FOOL

I guess a close cousin to “denier” is now “skeptic”—anyone who is not fully sold on leftist dogma.

“Global warming denier, a real epithet for leftists to throw out against any who haven’t consumed the global warming kool-aid.”
I call “Globo’ Warmin’” Religionists “Flat Earthers”. They believe, and their RELIGION doesn’t allow them to entertain any unapproved though, lest they get kicked out of the “Kool Kids Klub”.
This REALLY wizzes them off, and it’s fun to watch them stutter and stammer, as they try to come up with an answer. Which almost always ends in some form of a shouted insult.
I like “climate alarmists”.
I’m a proud denier of Alchemy, Global Warming, Astrology, etc
Liberals, environmental wackos and members of The Church of Global Warming do that a lot.
It is just one of the symptoms of their mental illness
Must be referring to those people who deny Hillary Clinton is Corrupt...and has been for years. Nixon Commission; Whitewater; Travelgate; Rose law firm time sheets; 100k return on cattle investment; Benghazi; Emails; foreign money contributions, i.e. influence peddling; and on, and on, and on. Totally Corrupt.
I enjoy destroying prog/commie’s imaginary utopia.
Its one thing if you want to live in la la land.
Its quite another if you want to force others live there with you!
Hubris.
Four billion years is enough! Stop cyclical global climate change now!
This is odd. Doesn’t bother me at all. I not at all slow in telling the thought police to shove it.
climate scammers
OK!! Everybody pay attention!
Lesson for today:
1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.
2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls the climates of all its planets.
3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.
4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.
5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.
Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?
