Original Post:
I asked, concisely and simply, what was being hidden from us. Most of them just berated me, one user claimed the Syria conflict to which I provided a link to a recent UN Statement on which quite accurately reflected the conflict start to finish. Another user claimed that the recently declassified Nixon era documents about the Chilean revolution and coup, but I was able to find a 1973 archived Newspaper accusing the Nixon Admin of having a hand in it from Times Magazine meaning it was already a mainstream theory at the time.
I’m going to need you to look up “ad hominem” in the dictionary, it’s not just for internet insults
Also let me know if you find one of those climate change articles or anything
I’m actually old enough to remember reading those back in the day. And if you go to any library that has old magazines or newspapers you won’t have any trouble finding stuff. As for Chomsky, this motherfucker (note the ad hominem) has lost every bit of credibility he might ever have had for associating with the kind of people he’s been arguing against all his life.
Here’s an example of what I’m talking about:
https://www.nytimes.com/2000/11/03/us/2000-campaign-environment-favorite-issue-gore-finds-himself-2-front-defense.html
Just a bunch of shit, from beginning to end. Not a whisper of the idea that this might actually be an emergency. In fact, it’s kind of treated as a liability for Gore that he keeps saying that it is.
About as good as it gets is this:
https://archive.nytimes.com/www.nytimes.com/library/national/science/121898sci-global-warming.html
… which, even if we’re not going to take any points off for “While there are dissenters who believe the warmer climate can be explained by normal variation,” doesn’t really address even to the slightest degree why this kind of thing might actually be important let alone a globe-spanning catastrophe.
That’s what I mean about why Gore had to make his own movie. The media was simply violently opposed to the idea of telling anyone the truth about it, limiting itself to sometimes making a grudging acknowledgement that maybe some of the most basic facts about the present might be true, with nothing at all indicated about what it meant for the future.
Okay, your turn. Where’s the newspaper article where they made it clear that it was an emergency? You said anyone could find them without any trouble, so it should be easy.
