Science should not advance via consensus, anyway. Those pushing the anti-CO2 campaign changed the paradigm from evidence-based science to group-think science, following the crowd science and being dishonest to have a career science. Now we are disempowered, and those wielding the propaganda baton are more powerful - till the 'climate' legislation is repealed. We have to demand the repeal of all 'climate' legislation.

Here here. Cattle farmers in Oz slaughtered large portions of their herd last year, because the weather bureau forecast a hot and dry summer - amplified by the media into a another dire climate catastrophe. Prices dropped to $650 a head, from $1300 in two weeks. Instead, Oz has had above average rainfall and a very wet summer. Farmers are mightily or rightfully pissed off. Even on the apple weather app, a 30 degree day is cast red with the notation "Extreme heat". More brain washing.

It is becoming more blatant with the current difficulties Boeing are facing. Failures of quality are showing up with possible bad consequences and people are falling over the intricacies of processes looking for when certain steps weren’t followed.

But is anyone standing back and looking at the underlying premise that you can only do such inspections and tests because you have a robust quality process ethos? Even if you failed to follow it you know in principle how precise source measurements are and when modelling is used how tightly the uncertainties are kept.

But try that with climate data. The source temperatures have systematic errors of at least 1 degree C at best. The Met Office even state this in their papers. So they assume all errors are random and then push out a purely hypothetical temperature are real. For real world consequences.

Take a minute. Think about Boeing and what’s being asked of them as a minimum.

Now look at climate science again and see if they are the same picture.

Climate emergency… Covid emergency… banking crisis: funny how it all ends up with the State assuming ever more control over every aspect of your life. Those crazy conspiracists might be forgiven for thinking they’re all part of the same playbook.

Many thanks for your post. I would have thought nowadays people would say the government is the prime cause of depression!

As regards 'follow the science' the phrase itself gives the clues as to the problems with it.

Great essay. Some more statistical questions: what % of MSM journalists are group thinkers? What % of scientists are group thinkers?.... and what % of humanity are group thinkers?

A very nice piece of “climate change” mockery, especially in linking the climate change scam to the Covid-19 pandemic scam. The general public will surely soon awaken to realise that they are being horribly abused: https://metatron.substack.com/p/we-are-being-horribly-abused-by-lies.

Pre pandemonium I was totally sucked in to the 97% BS. I had even done a MOOC called Denial 101 on how to debunk "climate deniers". On that course I met a teaching assistant (BW) who put me onto Citizens' Climate Lobby Australia and for a few years I lobbied politicians. I should thank BW, because it was she who woke me up to the climate scam: during the "get-jabbed-for-the-greater-good" bombardment, I discovered her on FB talking about "inoculating" people against "misinformation" about the "vaccines" - sprung! And I discovered that the Denial 101 originator (one of the sources of the 97% meme) was now, amazingly! designing computer games to "pre-bunk" "misinformation" about all-and-sundry subjects. WOW! If they were professional PsyOppers on the shot Narrative...what else had they lied about? Well and truly turned this climate activist on her head!
