They use psychologists because they know the way to get people to believe in their pet conspiracy theory, Climate Change............
Great video. Thanks for the link. BUMP!
The lie is the weapon used most often by the criminal.
Thought Police/1984:
In the year 1984, the government of Oceania, dominated by the Inner Party, use the Newspeak language to control the speech, actions, and thought of the population, by defining “unapproved thoughts” as thoughtcrime and crimethink; for such actions, the Thinkpol arrest Winston Smith, the protagonist of the story, and Julia, his girlfriend, as enemies of the state.
Among the means for maintaining social control, the Thought Police are said by O’Brien, an inner Party member and agent of the Thinkpol, to operate a false flag resistance movement to lure ideologically disloyal members of the Party to identify themselves for arrest.
Acting as an “agent provacateur”, O’Brien gives Smith a copy of the forbidden book, The Theory and Practice of Oligarchical Collectivism, authored by the opposition’s leader, Emmanuel Goldstein; yet the factual reality of The Brotherhood in Oceania remains uncertain because O’Brien refuses to reveal to Winston whether it does, in fact, exist.
Every member of the Outer Party has a two-way telescreen in his or her quarters, by which the Thinkpol audio-visually police the behaviour of the populace; listening for unorthodox opinions and spying for visible indications of stress that the observed person is suffering an inner struggle (ownlife), such as the words spoken whilst asleep.
The Thinkpol also spy upon and eliminate intelligent people, such as the Newspeak lexicographer Syme, who is disappeared and rendered an unperson, despite being an Ingsoc true-believer of fierce loyalty to Big Brother and the Party.
To eliminate possible martyrs, men and women of whom popular memory might provoke anti–Party resistance, at the Miniluv (Ministry of Love), the Thinkpol break thought-criminals with conversation, degradation (moral and physical), and torture in Room 101. Breaking the prisoner persuades him or her to sincerely accept the Ingsoc worldview, and so love Big Brother without reservation, conscious or unconscious. Afterwards, the Thinkpol release the politically rehabilitated prisoners to the social mainstream of Oceania, for a while, before re-arresting them to reprise torture and interrogation that conclude with execution and vaporisation into an unperson.
Every member of the Inner Party and of the Outer Party who ever knew, was acquainted with, or knew of the political prisoners must forget them, lest they commit the Thoughtcrime of remembering the existence of an unperson.
Such ideological self-discipline, of not thinking such thoughts, is crimestop, an indication of the cultural success of Newspeak as a means of social control. Moreover, at Minitru (Ministry of Truth), the records of the unpersons are destroyed and replaced with false records.
The Thinkpol usually do not interfere with the lives of the Proles, the working classes of Oceania, although Thinkpol agents provocateur continually operate amongst them, planting rumours to identify and eliminate any proletarian man or woman who shows intelligence and the capacity for independent thought, which might lead to rebellion against the Party’s cultural hegemony.

By the way, what media are not already squelching climate change critics? This has been the case for at least twenty years now. It’s only on alternative media sites and internet blogs that you ever read any opinions of skeptics.
Personally, I am a semi-skeptic since I accept there has been some recent warming but not the proposition that human activity is solely responsible. That leaves the question of proportions, how much is natural variation and how much is human caused?
What’s interesting (and the global warming lobby have failed to realize this) is that once you accept a mixed scenario you introduce the possibility that human warming is larger than postulated and overcoming a natural cooling trend.
So in purely scientific terms there is no “denial” aspect to holding a mixed source opinion.
As to what we do about it, mitigate not legislate. It makes far more sense economically to anticipate some degree of warming and even melting, then plan around it and accept that it is a mixed bag of gains and losses.
In other words, China (and increasingly our own western countries).
The Prisoners in the Gulags cried when Stalin died.
This is nothing new. The TOTALITARIAN Democratic party hates the “WILL OF THE PEOPLE” silence and disarm any opposition. After all it worked in Communist China!
There are Cult members who will all have to be eliminated if we want any chance in hell of surviving the returning Glacial.
Don’t bother.
They’ll all freeze to death in their electric cars................
Not too many prisoners!
Of course, not everyone was hypnotized by Stalin’s charisma and propaganda machine, especially those who languished in prison and in the GULAG, or were exiled under false charges. They saw the death of Stalin as deliverance.
“We were in Siberia, near Norilsk (2,800 km northeast of Moscow), digging a foundation pit,” said Anatoly Bakanichev, who was imprisoned in a camp after being a POW in Germany. “I was slogging the permafrost with a pickaxe when I heard my partner from above: ‘Tolya, get out here, the bastard is dead!’ Every camp inmate was joyful, you could notice it. Someone even was told to shout ‘hooray!’ after the news.”
