Sharing it via web archive because the main site is being inundated with traffic.

The tl;dr is that they generally agree that the article was fair, backed by evidence, and that he raised some good points.

Are you a Snowden supporter TC?

If you have different opinions on the two what are the differences?

Well since they went against the liberal narrative I guess you have yer answer for this example at least.

You on the other hand seem to be upset with their conclusion. So you anti-science now?

So in this case because they're against "liberals" that means they're good? Got it.


re-read what I said

but that was a funny retort

gives more credence to my comment

Re-read what I said. You've given much more credence to my comment. If scientists support liberals then they're bad but if they don't then they're good? Got it.


no I said if they support liberals then they are good

I'm confused, is your argument that these specific scientists responding to these specific claims are wrong? Or are you hoping to dodge the issue entirely by trying to pivot the discussion from Google's practices to "the right"

If they say something you agree with, they're infallible.
If they say something you don't agree with they're just a liberal echo chamber.

I'm pretty sure he's bitching about how liberal scientists say that global warming is real, there's nothing wrong with vaccinations, and they're all believed and trusted, but conservative fringe scientists who believe the craziest shit aren't trusted and "it's not fair" or something.

Byron I think you're making the false assumption that people here are climate change deniers. But that's not the case. Here we have 1)people who support science and 2) people who support science as long as they like what science says.
