Congressional Science Committee tweets link to Breitbart climate denial by self-confessed bullshit artist

It’s comments like this that make me wish I was still comfortable posting gifs from Fat Albert. Another thing ruined by rapey Uncle Pudding Pops.

You can’t feed a dead horse, but you can certainly beat it!*
*I highly discourage the beating of dead horses, even if they are named @Ion @Country_Club_Republican.


EDIT: The first troll I named isn’t dead yet, I accept my mistake and give you permission to hose me.

I love this. The old “we aren’t racist or bigoted - you just don’t have any sense of humor” argument.

I am perfectly capable of laughing at racist and bigoted jokes even when I’m the butt of it - but the thing is it has to have some context framing it as a joke or some sort of satire. It’s a fine line and if it really is some sort of humor site - well, you could have fooled me and I love dark humor. I am a firm believer that some of the best humor also has an uncomfortable element to it. But it is very easy to get wrong and then it’s not funny at all - it’s just racist and bigoted.

When all you do is publish horrible stories about horrible things then the so-called punchline ceases to exist.

The term was coined by a white nationalist. It has never meant anything else.

A term that is itself a euphemism for a white supremacist. Which is in turn a euphemism for the goddamned fucking Klan.

It took 'em 150 years to pull it off, but the KKK are back in charge.

I think Inhofe needs some homework assignments. How about summarizing the first page of results from Google for the following phrases:

  1. bible stewardship
  2. West Virginia strip mining
  3. three gorges dam before and after

Then let him explain who the arrogant people are.

Sorry, I came here not to feed the trolley, but to bury him…

Yeah, well, I did say parts of the movement that went mainstream got coy. And by “coy,” I mean not explicitly saying, “Yeah, we’re racists.” Although Breitbart wasn’t even all that coy about it, really. Most weren’t that subtle, obviously, which makes claiming that alt-right is anything but white supremacist is total, obvious, bullshit.

Not directly related, but I read in several publications in the last few days that Merkel is now the last “leader of the free world”. I mean, what the fuck happened. What the fuck.
