Global warming is a farce.
Marshall Islands pleads with world leaders to stop the 60,000-person nation from drowning
A World Bank report identified the nation as one of the first whose existence will be threatened by rising sea levels
Rising sea levels could sink buildings and flood much of the Marshall Islands, but the country’s climate envoy refuses to accept the scenario experts describe as a looming reality: She wants world leaders to step up.
“I don’t think it should be acceptable to any person in this world to write off a country,” Tina Stege told Sky News at the COP26 summit that started Monday in Glasgow, Scotland, where dozens of heads of state and government are gathering Monday for climate negotiations.
Her country doesn’t have the luxury of waiting. The central Pacific island nation, home to nearly 60,000 people, is already reeling from droughts and flooding while it prepares what she calls “a survival plan.”
But like many of the countries hit hardest by climate change, the Marshall Islands needs help and money. While developed nations had pledged more than a decade ago to mobilize $100 billion a year by 2020 to help poorer ones cope with climate impacts, they have fallen short, according to the United Nations.
“Those who are the larger wealthier nations who have really created the problem in the first place, unfortunately, have the resources to respond and we do not,” she also told the BBC on Sunday. “We need to start thinking about how to raise land, buildings, how we are going to survive.”
Voices from around the world on what’s at stake at COP26
Her appeal comes after a World Bank report said last month that the Marshall Islands will be one of the world’s first nations where rising sea levels will threaten its existence.
The study visualized how projected rises from 0.5 to two meters will confront the islands with the difficult, and expensive, task of protecting hospitals and schools, driving communities out of their homes.

Okay, you got me there with that literal definition. But that response there still is tame compared to other posts I’ve seen here by other people. That’s the point I’m trying to make.
I'm not trying to play "gotcha" with literal definitions.
The above example may not be excessively vitriolic but I would at least describe it as excessively imperious.

I'll just leave it at this, Europeans dominated the entire world, created all the innovation in the world, created the scientific method and all medical advances, even a nuclear bomb.
I don't have to put a value on that, let's say that I am not even calling it "good" - just that it is.
Others haven't, and are not capable, of doing such things. You have to appeal to things like "unfair" and fantasyland ideas - to try to explain it all away and act like those aren't realities. They are obvious realities to even a retard who tries to be truthful.
History is what it is and we know the results.
You are either a cult member, or a retard, or both because you can't counter any actual fact that I stated before or just now. And you won't, because you aren't honest and you can't, in any case.
It is proven yet again you have no truth in you.
Even if I were the meanest, "bigot" "tribal" "-phobe" whatever the dumb name calling of the day (and I am not any of those), it still would not change the fact that Europeans in many ways are more advanced than other human groups. You won't respond to this, because you can't.
Goodbye. Your leftist leader is waiting for you in the Gulag - even then you won't admit you are a diseased imbecile - you'll act surprised why as a friend of the lies, you weren't spared.

I don't dislike you at all. I just think you're full of crap a
lot of the time. I don't dislike Mazanec or Butler either.

First off, I have no idea who the "Guest" is, so if he's sucking up
to me then he's wasting his time.
Having said that, your conversation with him has been absolutely
hilarious.
I started laughing when you said that I "get emotional just like a woman."
In years past, when I was dating, women accused me of being too logical.
Furthermore, I thought that many of your responses were "just like a
woman."
However, I didn't say anything about it, but I thought it was very
funny when the mysterious "Guest" made that list of phrases where
you were emotional just like a woman.
So I think that the "Guest" enjoys sticking it to you in the same way
that you try to stick it to me.

Mostly Burner and I agree on things, yet John always puts my posts in another thread and the occasionally calls me names. Mostly because he hasn't been right in decades on his prediction, is wrong about the deflation and inflation debate, and can't muster responses to the criticisms so butt hurt is all we get. Big picture he doesn't care though and that's why he posts crazy shit with themes regarding nihilism, which is sad.
The funny thing about the forum is the unwelcome attitude many of us get who are clearly on the same side (not Bob Butler's) yet just want people to think and clarify their positions, particularly the ones that have been wrong or taken wayyyy longer than anyone wants to admit here. It's not everyone, and I know our personality types can be know-it-alls, but we are also truth seekers so it is pathetic when you counter someone on his not having predicted X, be able to explain y, or speak accurately on Z, and then he just gets emotional like a woman or a Bob Bish type character.
You said John "just gets emotional like a woman." I was going to underline the parts of your response where you got emotional like a woman. Problem is, it is the whole response so I couldn't do it.
Let's make a list:
Burner and I agree
John always puts my posts in another thread
occasionally calls me names
he hasn't been right in decades
he can't muster responses to the criticisms
butt hurt is all we get
he doesn't care though
he posts crazy shit
which is sad

so it is pathetic
These phrases are what women use when arguing with men. Someone else agrees with me. He calls me names. He's never right. He doesn't answer me. He doesn't care. He's crazy. Etc. I think they call it gaslighting.

A variant of the above hate crime article appeared in the Butler's Perspective thread, along with my full reply. I shall only repeat here that the Atlanta shooter was white, that his motive was thus hardly jealousy of a 'model majority' status, and that both black and red xenophobia against Asians would be equally deplorable.
This man is a prototype of everything that is wrong with the country. Lies and identity are more important than anything else. A truly disgusting thinker and promoter of all lies and Alinsky's favorite rebel.
Are you talking about Butler or the Atlanta shooter when you say "This man is a prototype of everything that is wrong with the country"?
Butler. He has absolutely no idea how deluded he is, and pushes all manner of lies and deception as a willing stooge. Like many others. I have explained why elsewhere.

You and Butler may have your prejudices, but for the most part you two, unlike Burner Prime and the “Guest” trolls, know how to express them in a calm, non-vitriolic manner.
Vitriolic
Via Webster
Full Definition of vitriol
1: bitterly harsh or caustic language or criticism
Not that I didn't know, but you are totally delusional. You can't come to a right conclusion with a wrong premise (or premises). COVID is not a crisis issue. The economy is the way it is because of lack of free markets and cronyism from large government and corrupt pols. Structural racism is a meaningless, nonexistent term and bankrupt idea. Violence is blue or pro communist. Global warming is a farce.
Your analysis can never be correct because you believe in, and promote, lies.
Not vitriolic?
Okay, you got me there with that literal definition. But that response there still is tame compared to other posts I’ve seen here by other people. That’s the point I’m trying to make.
Reading back a bit, now I'm a CCP asset/troll. I would respond to the accusations, but as I've said, I don't even know who "guest" is.
We don't agree on everything, but you are a thoughtful poster and not an emotional one, like so many of the known and unknown people around here. I appreciate your posts.

At least you acknowledge that concept.
Did you buy Navigator's book or respond to the thoughtful post about the Petrodollar?
How would you atone for the fact that you called Butler a "diseased imbecile"? Among other things. What would your Jesus say about your pathetic behavior?
Do you feel you come across as being "Emotional just like a Woman"?
So many unanswered questions from our mystery "better" troll!
