      Climate deniers use scientific aesthetics to reinforce and legitimize their message. At the same time, their main opponents, the climate activists, are portrayed as emotional and irrational. This has been demonstrated by researchers from the Universities of Gothenburg and Amsterdam, who have studied how climate deniers communicate online. "Disinformation is not just about incorrect facts, but about how these facts look and feel. In today's digital media landscape, messages are spread through images, memes and visual narratives that influence us in an instant, before we even have time to think. By understanding the aesthetic logic behind climate denial, we can...
    
  
  
    
    
      Peter Thiel, the billionaire venture capitalist and PayPal co-founder, has a provocative theory about how the Antichrist could take over the Earth and enslave humanity. "My speculative thesis is that if the Antichrist were to come to power it would be by talking about Armageddon all the time," Thiel told Hoover Institution interviewer Peter Robinson earlier this year. The greatest danger we face, according to Thiel, might not be from global warming, terrorism, nuclear winter, or artificial intelligence going rogue. The real danger is that we're so afraid of these threats that we're willing to give up our freedom in...
    
  
  
    
    
      Peter Thiel, the billionaire political svengali and tech investor, is worried about the antichrist. It could be the US. It could be Greta Thunberg. Over the past month, Thiel has hosted a series of four lectures on the downtown waterfront of San Francisco philosophizing about who the antichrist could be and warning that Armageddon is coming. Thiel, who describes himself as a “small-o orthodox Christian”, believes the harbinger of the end of the world could already be in our midst and that things such as international agencies, environmentalism and guardrails on technology could quicken its rise. It is a remarkable...
    
  
  
    
    
      His post, which has since been removed, was picked up by the San Francisco Standard, and had reportedly said that Thiel argued that because we are increasingly concerned about existential threats, the time is ripe for the Antichrist to rise to power, promising peace and safety by strangling technological progress with regulation.

      (Hostages and Missing Families Forum) Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg drew criticism Tuesday after sharing a picture of an emaciated Israeli hostage in a social media post about alleged mistreatment of Palestinians in Israeli prisons and detention centers. The post, which was made in collaboration with several pro-Palestinian activists, included graphics with statistics and pictures of Palestinians in Israeli detention, and was meant to call attention to “the suffering” of those in custody. “The suffering of Palestinian prisoners is not a matter of opinion — it is a fact of cruelty and dehumanization. Humanity cannot be selective. Justice cannot have...
    
  
  
    
    
      U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday urged Swedish career protester Greta Thunberg to see a doctor because, “… for a young person, she’s so angry. She’s so crazy.” Trump was speaking after Thunberg was deported from Israel along with 170 other activists who were detained while taking part in a flotilla bound for Gaza, as Breitbart News reported. He was asked about Thunberg during a press conference at the Oval Office. The president’s advice to the left-wing Swede was simple: “She is just a troublemaker … She has an anger management problem. I think she should see a doctor. If...

      Celebrity Climate activist Greta Thunberg claims she’s been subjected to heinous conditions inside a bedbug-infested Israeli holding cell following her detention as part of an aid flotilla bound for Gaza. Sweden’s Foreign Ministry notified Thunberg’s parents via email, which was shared with The Guardian, that they had met with the outspoken 22-year-old in Israel. In the email, officials said Thunberg has complained of dehydration, claiming she hasn’t been given enough food or water. “She also stated that she had developed rashes, which she suspects were caused by bedbugs,” the email said. “She spoke of harsh treatment and said she had...

      Newly discovered documents connect Hamas to two key organizers of Greta Thunberg's Global Sumud Flotilla and reveal that dozens of the fleet's boats are owned by the terror group, Israel's Foreign Ministry announced Tuesday. One document released by the agency showed a list of operatives in the Popular Conference for Palestinians Abroad (PCPA), an Israeli-designated terror group that counts Hamas terrorists and flotilla leaders among its members. It included Saif Abu Kashk, the CEO of Cyber Neptune, which Israel's Foreign Ministry called a Hamas front company in Spain that "owns dozens of the ships participating in the 'Sumud' flotilla." "Thus,...
    
  
  
    
    
      A single "queer activist" has thrown Greta Thunberg’s Gaza-bound flotilla into disarray, with several participants blasting the group’s leaders and at least one coordinator ditching it entirely. The beleaguered Global Sumud Flotilla aims to bypass Israel’s blockade to deliver aid to Gaza. But when self-described "queer activist" Saif Ayadi joined the effort, Khaled Boujemâa, a Tunisian coordinator for the flotilla, resigned in anger. "We were lied to about the identity of some of the participants at the forefront of the flotilla," he said in a Sept. 14 video posted to Facebook, the French outlet Le Courrier de l'Atlas reported, according...
    
  
  
    
    
      This is too hilarious to be true. But apparently it is, and it couldn't be more entertaining, wondering how it's going to play out. You know, the part where indulged, hedonistic, virtue-signaling, bubble-wrapped Westerners run straight into that ugly brick wall known as 'third world cultures' on their territory, not in the safe laboratory of a London or San Francisco street protest. Their first big mistake of the Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF), a multinational convoy of several dozen vessels seeking to breach Israel’s naval blockade of Gaza, was picking St Scowly Pants to lead the repeated watery charge into Gaza....
    
  
  
    
    
      The fire on Greta Thunberg’s Gaza-bound flotilla was likely started by one of the activists onboard, according to authorities in Tunisia — who said there was “no basis in truth” that it was struck by a drone. Tunisia’s Interior Ministry said there were no drones detected when Thunberg’s Global Sumud Flotilla [GSF] claimed it was hit by one Monday, starting a fire as it was off the Tunisian port of Sidi Bou Said. The ministry maintained that the group’s claim that a drone attack started the fire had “no basis in truth” — and that it was likely started onboard,...
    
  
  
    
    
      The European Union said on Monday it doesn’t “encourage” aid flotillas heading to Gaza, as vessels carrying humanitarian aid and pro-Palestinian activists including Greta Thunberg sail for the war-ravaged territory. “We don’t encourage flotillas like this, because basically they can escalate the situation, and they also put their participants at risk,” EU spokeswoman Eva Hrncirova said. She said the EU believes the “best way … to deliver the humanitarian aid” is via partner organizations working on the ground. …
