Can anyone recommend really BAD left-/right-wing opinion sites?

if you want to live the entire "arguing with climate skeptics" experience in about 2 minutes, just read this:

https://skepticalscience.com/1934-hottest-year-on-record.htm

then read the very first comment, along with the response.

(realizing that the majority of people reading this thread won't click on the link, i feel the need to point out that "skepticalscience.com" is a terrible, misleading name for the website - it's dedicated to providing simple, organized answers to common climate "skeptic" arguments)

i forgot about wattsupwiththat, then remembered it again. i thought i'd check in and see how they're doing. they are deeply angry with greta thunberg, who recently replied to a tweet by some kickboxing asshole.

yes, please do enlighten me. email me at smalldickene✧✧✧@getal✧✧✧.c✧✧ https://t.co/V8geeVvEvg

But that inspired an idea. Maybe more of us should have some fun, because what Andrew Tate did was important.

If you have any high carbon personal transportation or a gasoline guzzling toy to show off, make sure you let Greta Thunberg know via Twitter that living in a free country means you still get to enjoy using it.

But scrub the registration number before posting. No need to let her nasty army of trolls know your inside leg measurement.

the amount of projection with these kinds of people - alt-right? far right? normal right? - is kind of unbelievable sometimes. the comments, though. some of them are vile. absolutely everything is upside-down, like the dumbest things get the most votes and the rare traces of a decent point of view get heavily downvoted. then there's this guy

It doesnot add up

Seems to be appropriate to reprise this adaptation of Neil Diamond’s song (made popular by the Monkees)

Climate change is only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me.
Gore was out to get me
That’s the way it seemed.
Disappointment haunted all my dreams.

Then I saw the Beeb, now I’m a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
I’m a Mann, I’m a believer!
I couldn’t leave her if I tried.

Climate aid is more or less a givin’ thing,
Seems the more I gave the less I got.
What’s the use in tryin’?
All you get is pain.
When I needed sunshine I got rain.

Then I saw the Beeb, now I’m a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
I’m Greta, I’m a believer!
I couldn’t leave her if I tried.

Greta’s out to get me
Now, that’s the way it seemed
Disappointment haunted all my dreams

Oh, then I saw her face, now I’m a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
I’m in love, I’m a believer!
I couldn’t leave her if I tried.

Yes, I saw the Beeb, now I’m a believer
And not a trace of doubt in my mind.
Said I’m a believer
I’m a believer
I’m a believer
Said I’m a believer
I’m a believer
I said I’m a believer
I’m a believer

(the Beeb is slang for the BBC)

The dude's response to Greta's burn was "How dare you?!" - which is so pathetic and makes Greta's Tweet even more hilarious.

yeah, i didn't realize that Greta Thunberg saying "how dare you" in that speech at the UN climate convention is something a lot of people on the right are obsessed with. either the kickboxer doesn't realize that it's not a comedic catchphrase to everyone else, or all he cares about is his core audience of bitter snowflakes

really weird coincidence of timing here, and i didn't know who this andrew tate guy was until the thunberg tweet thing, but

BREAKING: Andrew Tate has just been raided by Romanian anti terrorism authorities. This is not related to Greta Thunberg nuking him into orbit online. pic.twitter.com/0J4LzTsQDC

jeez, look at his website. this is at the very top, the very first thing you see

Ah...I didn't get the reference - but even knowing it now, the dude's "joke" doesn't land.

yeah, it's very revealing of what he and his followers think is funny. the completely abysmal sense of humor of rightwingers is low on the list of their problems but maaaaaaan it's so stupid, just like 6th grade is the pinnacle

Haha...yikes...I found this link: https://euroweeklynews.com/2022/12/29/luxury-villa-of-influencer-andrew-tate-and-his-brother-tristan-raided-by-romanian-police/

Greta's tweet has now become one of the top 25 most liked tweets of all time with 2.8 million likes. It could easily hit the top ten by the weekend. This is absolutely legendary. https://t.co/edp071iCdC pic.twitter.com/C3A5xZL1Oq

it'll be interesting (for me and only me) to check back on that wattsupwiththat comment section and see how everyone is handling this
