You either agree with the Left or you’re branded as a heretic. Its their way or the highway.
“Their way or the highway” is not a viable choice. There is no highway that takes you out and around all this fever-swamp in which the “Climate-change-warmists” gather to wallow, like a great mass of crocodiles.
Critical thinking, in actually being able to present contrarian arguments and backing those arguments up with demonstrable factual evidence, is in very short supply these days. “Science by consensus” is no science at all, it is a duel of whoever has the loudest bullhorn.
REAL science, by its very nature, can NEVER be “settled”. Only practical applications of repeated tests and proofs may be expected to be relatively reliable indicators of probable future outcomes.
Cockamamie theories are rarely ever subjected to the repeated tests and proofs.
