Grand Scareporn Maximum
As the purchased press ramp up the climate porn, it is time to speak the truth: that the coming shift in climactic conditions will involve not a warming of the Earth’s temperature, but the opposite.
Something in the air?
This article is an extended version of an extract from this week’s diary, which is why some of my full subscribers may find parts (by no means most) of it familiar.
The scribes and Pharisees are laying on the next course in the continuing banquet of lies. The poltroons of the purchased press have been out in force this weekend, announcing the desertification of Europe and the end of continental holidays for, among others, my Sun-loving countrymen, the palefaced Irish.
The ever-ready Brendan O’Connor of the Irish Sunday Independent (aka Sindo) has (very) briefly interrupted his holidays in Italy to don the cap of doom and announce the end of life as we have known it.
‘When it’s too hot to go on holiday something is very wrong,’ advises the headline on the top of O’Connor’s Junior Cert standard composition that might more appropriately be headed 'My Summer Holidays Having to be Interrupted to Warn People Not to Go On Summer Holidays’. This article not merely contradicts itself from the off, but beggars its own central questions, for if O’Connor is able to write even such a bad article as this, there are reasonable grounds for assuming that he has not expired from the heat.
In fairness, the subhead obligingly declares: ‘We don’t need to be scientists to see global warming happening.'
This is fortunate, because perhaps the corollary may be claimed also: I don’t need to be a scientist to know that it’s all a load of b, double-o, double-l, double-o, double-x.
O’Connor’s idiotic but compliant article begins:
Not to be dramatic, but it feels as if things are never going to be the same again, doesn’t it? [You talkin’ to me? Then: No.]
The news that we have probably entered the Anthropocene, the first epoch of Earth that will be defined by the overwhelming impact of humans on the planet, might have been a bit of an abstract notion for some of us.
That’s not in the least dramatic, is it? Luckily, what he refers to is merely the first epoch on Earth that will be defined by the relentless lying of its journalistic class as they did their utmost to demolish it.
Actually, the subtext of his article gives the game away.
It’s ‘not so bad’, he says, where he is — ‘in southern Italy — up a hill and with a sea breeze’, but that would not be what the witchdoctors ordered, so he goes out and finds a couple of Italian farmers who give him what he seeks to pass off as evidence of a once-in-all-infinity episode of climate change.
An obliging adjacent farmer tells O’Connor that, last year, by the end of June, the agapanthus (African lilies) around the garden of his old farmhouse ‘had come and gone already’. The farmer was ‘spooked’ by it, as was his son, who helps him out.
Then the farmers son, as though aware of O’Connor’s urgent need for something more solid to help him with his deadline, declared: ‘My neck.’
It was sunburn, the first time he’d ever been sunburnt. He barely knew what it was.
I’d say that alright. Those Italian farmers are wild backward!
In the end, like all purchased scribes, O’Connor sings the prescribed chorus for his supper:
But it’s hard to escape the feeling, as we start to question the sanity of the habit of flying a couple of hours south in summer, that things are never going to be the same again.
But, just as one suspects that the scribes cannot imagine themselves being denied their seats on the ark, nor does it occur to them that, once their usefulness is exhausted, they may not be popping off on a Ryanair to Italy either.
The day before, in the Irish Examiner, a similar script was delivered by one Pádraig Hoare, under the headline: ‘Heatwaves may put end to Irish taking summer breaks in Europe.’ Now, there’s a coincidence.
Only joking! The approved script of the month is: Stop home, stay pasty-faced.
The ‘news’ here bears little or no connection to science, climate or weather: The real news is that the Predator Class — otherwise the Cult, the Combine, the New World Order — has now pressed the Go button on their initiative to ground the people of Europe in the 15-minutes cities that, at the moment, they imagine these innocent neo-serfs imagine then have killed off with their minor tantrums of refusal.
The subhead of the Examiner article reads:
The climate change crisis is warming Europe twice as fast as anywhere else on the planet. Perhaps two weeks of rain in Ireland is not so unappealing. [A reference to the fact that the weather in Ireland at the moment is inconveniently that of a typical Irish summer.]
The notion that ‘climate change is warming Europe twice as fast as anywhere else’ is a standard trope-line of the climate change crimesters. The manifest lie that ‘climate change’ can simultaneously be ‘warming’ Europe/Africa/Parts of the United States/Canada/Latin America/the Middle East/Singapore — and just about every corner of the planet — is here given a rather excellent seeing-off by the Irish (true) scientist, Ivor Cummins:
The Examiner article is more useful than the Sindo one in that it exposes more of the methodology of the scam, which includes techniques like: Cite lots of stats but quote only those who are already in on the scam and therefore on the Predators’ payroll:
Senior scientist for the C3S, Freja Vamborg, said that temperatures of 50C in Europe are now inevitable because of global warming, after Sicily saw a record 48.8C in 2021.
‘48.8C is not that far away from 50C, and the 48.8C was already 0.8C warmer than the previous European record. I won’t give a timeframe, but, for sure, this is not going to be the last temperature record we’ve seen in Europe,’ she said [of her own prediction that European temperatures are headed for a new normal of 50C].
Research by scientists at the University of Washington last year found that days exceeding 39C will be three to 10 times more common in Western Europe by the end of the century, even if global warming is curbed to levels agreed in the historic Paris Agreement.
Interesting, no?: Even if we do everything we are told, it will make no difference!
The article also claims:
More than 100 weather stations in Spain alone reached 35C before 6am on Wednesday this week, with the country's national weather agency warning that ‘hot winds blowing from the interior will cause temperatures to soar’ even higher.
In Italy, 10 cities including Rome and Florence were put on alert for extreme temperatures, with some parts of the country reaching 45C. The islands of Sicily and Sardinia were braced to surpass such temperatures.
Head of the Italian Meteorological Society, Luca Mercalli told CNN ‘the Earth has a high fever and Italy is feeling it first hand’, as tourists passed out at Rome’s famed Colosseum.
All uncheckable assertions, of course, though likely to be accepted as a result of the blanket propaganda that repeats the same figures ad nauseam. But temperatures in the mid 30s are not unusual in Spain. Moreover, is there any sentient person who still trusts the word of any governmental body anywhere in the world? Can there be any doubt that both the Spanish ‘national weather agency’ and the Italian Meteorological Society are, shall we say, on message?
Hoare then comes to his doomed punchline:
The climate change crisis is warming Europe twice as fast as anywhere else on the planet, incontrovertible evidence now tells us. Such heatwaves are becoming as depressingly familiar in Europe as rowdy stag parties and roasted pink skin.
June and July are on their way to becoming months in future years where typical holidays — taken for generations by Irish families — will become seriously compromised.
Exaggeration? Doomsday embellishment? You never hear of anyone staying a couple of nice relaxing weeks in California’s notoriously unforgiving Death Valley, do you? Furnace Creek in Death Valley almost reached 57C more than a century ago — an unimaginable and unassailable record then, but more likely a summer norm at times in the coming decades.
And so on an on and on and on. Exaggeration. Doomsday embellishment. Lies.
'Spain and Portugal,’ Bernard O’Connor, back at the scorched Sindo tells us, taking up the tune, ‘parts of which are practically suburbs of Dublin in summer, are suddenly not those comfortable places people return to again and again — but hostile environments.’
My wife, Rita, and I have been in Andalusia for the past three weeks, and therefore in a position to judge whether several of these assertions are true or false.
Mostly, they are false. I’ve been spending several weeks of the summer here in the same part of Andalusia, close to the Costa del Sol, east of Malaga, for 20 years — in the early years of the millennium with my daughter, then a young child, and more recently with my wife. On multiple occasions in that period I’ve encountered far higher temperatures than those of the present week.
In my two-decades’ experience of coming here, I have several times encountered temperatures in excess of 40 degrees, usually in July and August, which was when I used to take my daughter here on holidays every summer — when the schools in Ireland were closed.
Rita and I haven’t been here in these two months for some years, mostly because we come off-season to get better flight deals. But I, for one, have no difficulty with hot weather. Our house here, with its four foot thick Moorish walls, is a veritable cave. On the hottest day, when we return here out of the noonday sun, to walk in the front door is like stepping into a deep freeze. In winter, conversely, the walls keep the heat in. Being a pasty-faced Paddy, of course, requires one to be prudent if the temperature goes north of 20, but you quickly become used to it and, by staying indoors in the middle of the day, can avoid any adverse events.
This year, by all accounts, the hot weather came early. After an intermittently rainy May, June was a scorcher, hitting the 30s maybe two or three weeks earlier than usual. Now, the temperature is in the mid-30s and may well reach the early-40s in another week or two. All perfectly normal, and, aside from a fairly acute water shortages (barely ameliorated by the May rains), not a problem. But when we arrived back here in the last days of June, I began to notice something peculiar. Some — I stress: some — of the locals were inclined to wipe their brows dramatically and remark on the heat. Sometimes, they might go on to refer to ’climate change’, as the air-conditioning man did the other day — well, he would, wouldn’t he? But when I point out to them that summers have always been hot here, and that our beloved Pueblo’s great claim to fame is having ‘the best [i.e. the hottest] climate in Europe’, they generally grin sheepishly and agree that it’s all a load of cobbler’s small pointy tools.
‘Too much TV!’ I caution, and they agree with a wry shaking of the head.
In the past 40 months, we have had good cause to observe, as though for the first time, the capacity of malevolent powers to use behavioural and psychological trickery to confound people and fill their heads with lies. What I have encountered here in this context is a rather typical but especially dismaying example: people who have lived all their lives in the same essential climactic conditions starting to reinvent history at the bidding of paid liars.
Already last week, in advance of the slight early surge in temperatures across continental Europe, the purchased media had been ramping up the climate change alarmism, as it had in every weather circumstance for the past several years. In the winter, they tell us that the cold is due to . . . climate change; in the summer, even a burst of watery sunshine is blamed on . . . climate change. Every time the wind blows, they give the gust a name, and issue stern warnings to stay home, stay safe, avoid the coast and roads with trees, which in my country means every road not running though an urban area, and most of those as well. All this is directed not at ‘saving the planet’ but at controlling the planet’s population in as total a manner as can be achieved.
The plot thickens:
‘How Bill Gates wants to hack the weather to save us from extinction,’ screamed a headline in the UK Telegraph on July 15th.
The report seems to overlook that, for many years, guerrilla media figures have been asserting that weather hacking was already happening, to which mainstream journaliars invariably responded in a spluttering of ‘hahahahatinfoilhahahahatconspiracytheoryhahaha!’ In fact — and the sole reason bought-and-paid-for journaliars felt free to respond in this way — the official line until the day before yesterday was that geoengineering was a ‘conspiracy theory’.
Undaunted, the neo-Jeremiah scribe cautions:
As we inch closer to catastrophic temperature rises, the question is increasingly being asked: can we hack the climate to keep us cool? More importantly, should we?
Until the last few years, geoengineering had been background chatter among climate observers more concerned with cutting emissions as fast as possible. But governments are beginning to look for ways out.
Nonsense and knowing nonsense. As has been common knowledge among observant and sensible people, weather engineering operations have been a constant feature of our skies for decades. Atmospheric particle testing conducted by GeoengineeringWatch.org has established beyond doubt that those familiar, lingering, spreading jet aircraft trails — more amorphous and dispersing than the ones you may remember from my youth — are to be seen virtually every day, pretty much anywhere you go in the known world. And this process of geoengineering is, by many accounts, far more dangerous to human health and existence than anything arising organically from the climate context itself.
If you don’t believe me, spare 45 minutes or so to have a listen to this pair of tin foil hat conspiracy theorists: YouTuber Richard Vobes and Dane Wigington from Geo Engineering Watch:
It’s true: Things may never be the same again, but for reasons Brendan O;Connor and his accomplices have been rubbishing for years — not because of the weather or the Anthropocene, as he suggests, but because of interference in the Earth’s atmosphere by — yes! — conspirators seeking to weaponise a spurious notion of climate change to create the conditions they regard as necessary to enslave and imprison the human race.
Since personal anecdotes (sunburnt farmers, et cetera) are now permitted in the zone of The Science, allow me to tell one of my own. My wife, Rita, became ill the other day, suddenly succumbing to vomiting and a severe headache. She appeared suddenly, dramatically, immensely weakened, acquiring within minutes the disposition of a rag doll. She could hold nothing down, not even water. My first thought (I do not claim to be totally immune to propaganda!) was sunstroke, which can be more serious over here than back home because dehydration can lead rapidly to some serous consequences. I had already ruled out food poisoning, because we had eaten the previous night at an excellent pizza joint where we’re been many times, down the costa, with family members. Neither of us being especially hungry (the hot weather, doncha know!) we shared a pizza and a caprese salad, but I was exhibiting no adverse effects.
I looked up the symptoms of sunstroke and checked them against her condition: headache? yes; vomiting? definitely; not sweating even while feeling too hot? on the contrary, drenching every towel in the place; fast breathing or shortness of breath? no; feeling confused? no more than usual; high temperature of 40 degrees Celsius or above? no — her temperature was 36.5, just marginally below normal; a fit (seizure); nothing like it.
I got some rehydration powders at the farmacia and mixed them into a jug of cold water, but she brought the whole thing up almost instantly, which seemed to trigger a total purge, in the course of which emerged the kind of stuff you might find in the sump of a 1966 Volkswagen Beetle that had been lying idle for 20 years.
We were blessed. Our angelic Sudanese neighbour, on hearing of the crisis, immediately made an ice-cold jugful of potion with fresh lemon juice, fresh lime juice, water and a little sugar. Rita started to sip it, then gulped it down. Within minutes she had drunk half the 1 litre jug. She slept for a couple of hours and then vomited again, but after then started to stabilise. By the next evening she was eating pasta with Parmesan cheese.
Our angelic neighbour mentioned that she had heard there was some kind of virus going around, manifesting similar symptoms to Rita’s, thus triggering my next train of thought: What if the effects people are attributing to the temperature are actually the consequences of whatever they’re spraying in an alleged attempt to block out the Sun? The more I think about it, the more certain I become, at least on the balance of probabilities, that what ailed my wife this week was atmospheric poisoning, a process that a friend of ours down the Costa has been warning us has been occurring in the area for some time. And, now I think of it, I would gently raise the possibility that the cause of the confusion of the Italian farmer’s agapanthus and his son’s first-time sunburn may be down to the same cause. (Agapanthuses do best in full sun and a well-drained soil. They are drought-tolerant plants, able to cope in a gravel garden that isn’t watered, and do especially well in pots.)
On a recent episode of the UK-based YouTube channel Triggernometry, the American mathematician, hedge fund manager and physicist, Eric Weinstein, made an interesting observation about the way official lying is having the effect of causing people to be confused about everything. It’s a little like the boy who cried wolf, except in this case it’s the wolves crying lies from their lying eyes, to say nothing of their mouths, rendered crooked by incessant mendacity. Weinstein reckons that what he calls ‘the epidemic of lies’ has made certain topics terminally inaccessible to most laymen, because nothing we hear can be verified other than from the same sources the lie came from.
‘Scientific consensus is being manipulated by official bodies to get certain narratives to do things,’ he said. Not half!
His point is more subtle than simply a blanket accusation of lying against the political class. He thinks politicians and other categories of ‘authorities’ and cultural influencers have fallen into a form of default lying for all kinds of reasons — some bad, some (he intimates) not necessarily bad. Sometimes, he seems to suggest, the lies are told for well-intentioned reasons, but are nonetheless damaging because they contribute to a culture in which it has become impossible to know with any certainty the truth about almost anything important.
‘There are plenty of reasons people lie,’ he says, ‘both in your interests and against your interests, so the epidemic of lying has created a general sense that whatever is being lied about is untrue.’ Here, unfortunately, he uses the example of Covid, a topic on which he appears to be unaware of the actual scale of the lying that went on, and its precise purpose and end. People died from Covid, he asserts — but did they really? Did they? Really?
But he goes on to turn this banality into a rather good point:
‘So I think we're just really confused because we've been lied to so many times we're punch drunk, and as a result we just don't know what we're advocating for. I don't know how big a problem climate is. I know it's a problem; I don't know how big. I don't know what we actually know. I've been confused, so the variance in my opinion about how big of a problem this is, and whether it commands the lion’s share of my attention or not — I don't know, because I've just lost faith and trust in the IPCC [Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change], and that's a very real problem . . .’
I feel much the same. I have a general certainty that the current relentless climate change narrative is profoundly mendacious and sinister, but I also know that many of the major corporations — the pharmaceutical industry, for example — have for years been poisoning the watercourses and polluting the landscapes of innumerable countries, and that this is likely to have very serious consequences for future generations unless we can intervene to stop it. And I also have a growing sense that the damage of this, not incidentally, may well be dwarfed by the damage caused by geoengineering.
As Weinstein intimates, the continuing campaigns of lying — largely directed at blaming regular people for the problem ('the first epoch of Earth that will be defined by the overwhelming impact of humans on the planet’) — are not merely tyrannical, but also counterproductive and destructive. In the all but ubiquitous skewed analysis, every adverse weather event is interpreted as linked to rising levels of CO2 and the supposedly inevitable catastrophic environmental events arising therefrom. These prognostications are incoherent on their face, since climate is a stochastic phenomenon that does not yield up its secrets on the basis of short-term data.
I first delved into the climate question back about 15 or 17 years ago, after seeing a tremendous exhibition on the subject — produced by open-minded scientists — in, as it happens, Italy. The conclusion was essentially as I have stated it: manmade climate change is not a provable hypothesis — there are too many random variables. This caused me to become not a ‘climate change sceptic’ (an ideological spell-term) but a sceptic of those who make claims about permanent damage to the biosphere on the basis of — essentially — year-on-year weather data, since weather and climate are two quite different things.
I have become more and more persuaded by those who warn not of climate warming, but climate cooling. For example, multiple forecasts have been made by climate alarmists for an ‘ice-free Arctic’ . . . in 2009 . . . in 2013 . . . in 2018 . . . and counting — and yet Arctic sea ice volume is currently at its highest for years. In reality, the climate of the globe is on the point of cooling overall, and rather radically, due to a periodic weakening of the Sun. This phenomenon, a cyclical one in history, is called a Grand Solar Minimum, and the forthcoming one is called the Eddy Minimum. I have a lot to learn about the idea, and there’s a lot of complicated-sounding stuff about sunspots and solar flares and suchlike — stuff that I do not claim to follow entirely — but I find this thesis far more compelling than one that seems to be propelled by bullying, moral blackmail and massive vested interests involving money and power — and yet somehow seems to relieve the chief malefactors of responsibility for whatever might be happening, while enabling them to use the issue as an excuse to imprison and pauperise the general population. Last winter, I went to investigate a community in the Sierra Nevada mountains near Grenada, and spoke at length with a man who has been part of that group of people and families from all over the continent, who initially arrived there decades ago to prepare for precisely this moment. I found his witness compelling and hope to return to the subject in the coming months, having delved somewhat further into possible lines of inquiry he indicated to me.
This coming grand solar minimum will indeed bring some ominous consequences — just not for the reasons that the ‘climate scientists’ beloved of the purchased media have been warning about. These may well include acute food shortages and extreme weather events, including floods, volcano eruptions and other seismic episodes, leading to power outages, communication breakdowns and other forms of systems collapse.
The processes that the Gates Foundation is said to be planning are already in train, as per the Telegraph article referred to above, with the alleged objective of increasing cloud cover to maintain the Earth at cooler temperature, have been in train for a verylong time. In fact, they have bean contributing to increasing haze over many parts of the Earth — in some places more or less constant — and result from geoengineered ‘aerosols’ (airborne particles, mostly toxic) which, as a collateral aspect, cause light to be reflected back into space, thereby provoking a cooling of the Earth’s temperature. Since the Sun drives almost every aspect of the world’s climate system, blocking its light and heat will inevitably cause the planet to cool.
But the Earth is soon to begin cooling radically of its own accord. This happens periodically dues to various cycles of warming and cooling that occur in relatively longterm and shorter-term loops, known as solar maxima and minima.
The cyclical alternations between solar maxima and minima have been found to correlate with periods of speeding-up and slowing-down in the Earth’s rate of rotation. The Sun has always undergone regular patterns of cooling and warming, occurring at different levels of intensity in different cycles. At present, due to a combination of factors, we are heading into the lowest solar activity in at least 400 years.
My crude sense of things is this: There are two essential cycles in which temperatures go up and down — i.e. solar maxima and minima — one of these being the normative one that occurs in 11 year loops, and is currently approaching its zenith, which it will attain in two years’ time. The other loop is a much longer-term one, and occurs over approximately 30 years, this being what is called the Grand Solar Maximun/Minimum. The Eddy Minimum, which has just started (2020), is a Grand Solar Minimum, scheduled to last until the early 2050s. Normative/regular solar minima and maxima cross over and intersect with grand solar minima and maxima, and are in effect discrete phenomena, exhibiting more moderate changes in one direction or the other. Our current situation, therefore, is that, in the next couple of years, we will experience the zenith of the standard cycle, while still being in the early stages of the Eddy Minimum. This means that, in all probability, our temperatures will increases during 2024 and 2025, then begin to plateau, falling off quite dramatically at we approach 2030.
By 2026, in other words, we shall have passed the most extreme of the temperatures we are likely to experience in the present phase — at least by natural means, though I cannot speak for what Bill and his mates may have planned for us. If the climate conspirators have their way, the climate scareporn, which has now entered its maximum phase, will have achieved its objectives by the time the temperatures begin to cool sufficiently for the truth to get its boots on. By then, of course, Bill Gates and his co-conspirators will have achieved their objectives of persuading most of the human race to abandon their right to travel in search of sunlight and warmth, and, as the Earth’s temperature cools in accordance with the predictions concerning the Grand Solar Minimum, will declare themselves heroes for having acted ‘just in time to save the planet’ from Climate Armageddon, doubtless asserting that their Zero Carbon strategy — if it has not already wiped out the human population — is what has saved us.
There are, in fact, some real dangers arising from the present complex moment. Last year, NASA warned about a dramatic increase in solar flares coming up to the solar maximum of 2025, which it claims present a risk of geomagnetic storms. As the Sun shifts from relative calm to stormy, sunspots appear all over its surface, and frequently erupt. These storms can cause all kinds of electrical convulsions, affecting on Earth such technologies as GPS navigation systems, satellites, and possibly aeroplanes and spacecraft. There have been several recent episodes of pieces of old rocket debris coming crashing down to Earth because solar activity caused their orbits to shift. These occurrences, to say the least, could be dangerous to human beings who stray into their paths. So far, the mainstream media have have nothing at all to say about these.
It is estimated that the coming Eddy Minimum will last for about 30 years, counting from 2020 until just after the mid-point of the century. It follows in the wake of the Dalton Minimum (1800-1830), the Maunder Minimum (1645-1715), the Spörer Minimum (1460-1550), the Wolf Minimum (1280-1350), and the Late Antique Little Ice Age (535-660). During the Spörer, Maunder and Dalton Grand Solar Minima, the circulation patterns of the North Atlantic changed dramatically, and during the Eddy Minimum, such conditions are likely to recur — i.e. a return to Little Ice Age conditions, which are expected to bottom-out after 2040. During the last three grand solar minima, Arctic water strayed all the way south to Portugal, with Europe experiencing severe climatic conditions. This would mean a dramatic change in the human approach to reality, but, according to many of the climate scientists we are rarely if ever allowed to hear from, will by no means prove disastrous.
According to the paper linked below, by Nils-Axel Mörner, published in Natural Science in 2015, we should expect cold climatic conditions and extensive ice expansion in the Arctic by mid-century — in total contradiction of the ubiquitous conventional ‘climate change’ agenda. Mörner notes that the imminent arrival of a new grand solar minimum is evident from ‘multiple studies of quite different characteristics: the phasing of sunspot cycles, the cyclic observations of North Atlantic behaviour over the past millennium, the cyclic pattern of cosmogenic radionuclides in natural terrestrial archives, the motions of the Sun with respect to the centre of mass, the planetary spin-orbit coupling, the planetary conjunction history and the general planetary-solar-terrestrial interaction.’ I don’t claim to comprehend all these metrics, but he sure sounds like he knows what he’s talking about — and rather more so than Eamon Ryan or most of the purchases scribes parroting his one-track message!

But none of this is longitudinally novel or in any sense terminal. During the 20th and early 21st centuries, Earth’s inhabitants have enjoyed an epoch of very high solar activity that is rare or unique in the context of the last several thousand years. This epoch — known as The Modern Warm — followed the Minoan Warm (3,750 BC), the Roman Warm (2000 BC), and the Medieval Warm (1000 AD). These warmer periods are association with progress and expansion in science, medicine, art, music, literature, et cetera, and it is therefore to be anticipated that we are entering a doldrums period under some or all of these headings. As in so much else, we have lived through an especially blessed period in human history — now about to come to an end, though not for the reasons you will read about in your newspapers, or hear about on the Six One News.
As Eric Weinstein appears to suspect, therefore, the alarmists are correct in claiming that some of the factors creating the current climate patterns are manmade, but are incorrect in their fundamental assertion that the Earth is heating up in some kind of terminal fashion. In the immediately approaching decades, the challenge facing the Earth’s human population will be increasing cold, resulting in a radical degeneration in weather patterns everywhere; the issue is not ‘global warming’ due to increasing temperatures, but the opposite.
My chief quibble with Weinstein is that he doesn’t seem to ask why we’re being lied to, a question that might enable him to take his argument to another level. Instead, he seems to accept that there is some kind of positive intentionality behind the climate change untruths, that somehow the lies we’re being told are white ones.
There are, in fact, the blackest of lies. As with everything else we are observing at the level of politics, economics and culture, what is being purveyed is designed to ensure that the very rich stay very rich, and that the rest of us become poorer . . . and learn to keep our mouths shut except when asked a question by our betters, and given permission to speak briefly.
