Social Greta Thunberg Megathread

[Seano]

You mean tipping in a restaurant. Yes we had that derp

Of course. Waitresses can't get by on the peanuts their employees pay. Thats why people tip, I already pointed that out.

 

[ObamaPhoneLady]

So you're comparing the variation in the past 12k years to 50-70 years? That's ridiculous LOL! You don't see the issue here?

That graph has been debunked.

 

[Voodoo_Child906]

That graph has been debunked.

Actually no, I haven't seen a debunking of it but even if it was why would you compare the variation in the past 12k years to 50-70 years?

 

[Witchhunt]

That graph has been debunked.

Don’t you love the period chosen to represent as average.... Derp

Because cherry picking is bad.

By your logic. If the Lakers outscore the Warriors 84-70 over three quarters, then the Warriors go on a run in the fourth quarter, scoring 20 to the Lakers 8, the score is 92-90 for the Lakers, but you think the Warriors won because they scored the most points in the fourth quarter.

What a strange analogy to make, this isn't about scores or winning a basketball game. A scientific analysis of temperature over time needs a constant and in this case it's time. Comparing a small sample like 50-70 years and saying the delta is equivalent to the delta over 12000 years is remarkably wrong. A change of .8 C over 50-70 years is extremely anomalous when previously it took 10000 years.

So what happens when temperatures go up 1 degree?

 

[Voodoo_Child906]

On the entire earth? That would depend on where the temperatures were distributed.

 

[ObamaPhoneLady]

So again, what are you panicking about?

My argument hasn't changed. I'm not a climate chnage denier, I'm just not sold on this doom and gloom scenario you guys have bought into.

Same way the world didn't end when Trump was elected, we aren't embroiled in WW3 since drone striking that Iranian general, Russia isn't subverting democracy and white supremacists aren't mass lynching people of colour in the streets.

The left has gone into this hysterical freak out over the last few years over EVERYTHING and it's just fear mongering nonsense because you guys lost an election, lost the brexit referendum, have no hope in 2020, and are impotent to stop the rising tide of conservatism in the West.

What's this "You guys", I'm much more center right fiscally and just like your city my entire livelihood is based in the Oil and Gas Industry. The world is NOT going to end in 12 years like some on the left have stated but AGW is real, it an issue as .8 C distributed around the world in 50-70 years (with the brunt being at the poles) is a big anomaly whether you want to admit that or not.

 

[ObamaPhoneLady]

AGW is real

Never said it wasn't.

.8 C distributed around the world in 50-70 years is a big anomaly whether you want to admit that or not.

Disagree.

 

[ObamaPhoneLady]

Also 'center-right' lmao.

That's why a quick search through your posts reveals a Biden apologist who wants to equate Trump to Epstein and has some weird cuckold fantasy about Melania and Putin.

 

[Voodoo_Child906]

Well that's where we're at then, nice talking to you.

LOL Do you know what fiscally means?

 

[ObamaPhoneLady]

LOL Do you know what fiscally means?

Yes. It would mean you were a Trump supporter.

 

[Voodoo_Child906]

Yes. It would mean you were a Trump supporter.

Nope, relates to finances. Are you sure you're from Calgary?

 

[ObamaPhoneLady]

Nope, relates to finances. Are you sure you're from Calgary?

The one thing you can't argue about Trump is he has been killing it with the economy.

You want to throw him out of the white house and put Biden in there lmao.

We're getting off topic, but let's not pretend part of your climate change alarmism isn't just Dem party loyalty.

I agree, Trump has been doing a great job with the stock market so far, still killing it! My climate change position is the same as every Oil and Gas head quarters in Calgary, I'm sure they'd be all Democrats too LOL.

 

[AtomicPanther]

how does it maker her any less heroic. Regardless if she meant it she still represented a noble cause that is being politicized by a bunch of radical right wingers.

Have to admit "my dad told me........" carries a little less weight.

STOCKHOLM — Teen climate activist Greta Thunberg said on Instagram on Wednesday she has applied to register her name and that of the Fridays For Future movement she founded in 2018, which has gone global and catapulted her to international fame.

The move would allow legal action against persons or companies trying to apply her name or the movement’s for uses that are not in line with its values, she said.

How would this be applied? Is this an effort to try to curb the mudslinging against her, or so other people don't make money off of her.
