Young Voters on Climate Deniers: ‘Ignorant, Out of Touch, Crazy’
YahooNews ^ | 7/26/2013 | Salvatore Cardoni

Say what you will about us millennials—we’re a wilting bouquet of narcissistic, socialistic, overeducated, underemployed, tatted-up hipsters who still live at home—but, from this day forward, don’t you dare say we’re climate change deniers.

A strong majority (66 percent!) of young independent voters, ages 18 to 34, accept as dogma that man and his dirty deeds are causing, and will continue to cause, climate change—this according to a study conducted by a bipartisan pair of political strategy groups for the League of Conservation Voters.

This shows the power of propaganda - both in the media and in school.

The Greenies will press Marxism at every turn and the f*ing asshats at Yahoo! push the lies.

Because it’s the only religious training that 66% of school students receive.

Actually, I'm surprised it's only 66%. I would have expected 90%+.

It is safe to say that the 66% are the low-information drones. No one who spends a few hours researching the subject could believe that AGW holds water.

The same over-educated, under-employed, stay with parents, brainwashed by the university professors, can not answer how the last ice age came to an end. The global warming which ended the ice age was so powerful, it melted 4 mile thick glaciers sitting on top of Chicago and created the largest body of fresh water, aka The Great Lakes.

Millenials sure as hell are not “overeducated.” Most of those worthless and dangerous fools think that “Ben Gazi” was some dude, there isn’t much difference between Chechnya and Czech Republic, and they sure as hell don’t know the difference between General Patton and General Eisenhower. They are mostly ignorant, feckless, arrogant dreck.

I have a niece who falls into that demographic. She and I have discussed potential candidates for the 2016 presidential election and I was shocked to hear that her favorite is Michelle Obama. She is the epitome of a low-information drone freshly indoctrinated by her favorite liberal college professor(s).

Better to be an anthropogenic climate-change (formerly global-warming) skeptic than a zealot who considers it irrefutable gospel.

All the self-depreciation was insufficient, and affected. He really underestimates the gravity of the situation and totally fails to gauge the depth of this ignorance.

The issue is science and the scientific method, which, among other things, disregards polls when trying to determine the truth or falsity of a thing.

But, that's goes without saying, doesn't it? Cold truth cares nothing for Fashion Law.

A post from Saturday offering a ray of hope, or something:

Our Climate-Change Cathedral- The science of global warming is weak, but the idea is strong.

Me too. My niece is about to start UT.

She believes global warming is real and that Zimmerman was out hunting black kids.

propaganda works

lol! Not funny, really because these people vote.

When I asked my niece what qualifications Michelle Obama had to be POTUS she said she didn't want to debate it with me. I was not surprised by her answer as that's exactly what her mother said to me in 2008 when I asked her why she planned to vote for Obama.

There’s a reason why the phrase “young and stupid” is so popular.
