The word swindle in the title tells me all I need to know about this one without watching it

How so? It's a documentary posted in "General" discussions. Although not a popular side of the discussion, it is nonetheless not a political film. Have you watched it?

I don't know if 10furlongs has, but I have. And, there are two points I'll raise:
1. I can change your knowledge, but not your beliefs. 2. Not the place, Dino.

There is no such thing as a non-political documentary on Global Warming. Someone always has a finger on the scale with that topic.

Not trying to change anyone's political convictions. Just offer up some rational Objective data. 2. Not the place, General Discussion, to have a .... General Discussion? 3. Why? Because it causes one to think, to question one's paradigm, possibly based off of incomplete or inaccurate information? Because it is not congruous with your belief system? Despite not being politically motivated, it is possibly an uncomfortable topic, so let's not talk about it?!?!? I disagree By the way.... You've been a member here how long? 21 days!?!? Help me understand how in all of your tenured wisdom here you have somehow earned the esteemed position to determine what I, or anyone else should post? Especially when it is NOT intended to be political?

To label someone a denier because they disagree with you is for lack of a better description, is passive aggressive, or bullying.

You're playing the victim which says more about you than me.

Actually, it doesn't say anything about me. You're playing the victim which says more about you than me. Not playing the victim. Another nice snarky jab there. First the aspersion of calling me or others "Deniers" and and now more name calling. In the end, this is how you play the game isn't it? Knowingly call something other than it is or as it was intended. If you disagree with the facts and arguments posed in the documentary, then dispute them with countering facts. Stop the sophomoric petty attacks on those that disagree with your world view. So, to be clear. Not playing the victim. Simply refuting your false accusations.

Dino, we've all posted after too many drinks. Please give this one up and get some sleep.

Sorry Ted, but I can't agree sir.
The fact that the herd disagrees with the opinion of someone else doesn't give them the right to try and shout em down or start their name calling.
It's pretty frickin simple. IF you disagree with the subject of the documentary, don't watch it. But to impose the mob rule mentality on others is pathetic.

Yes, really. I see enough off this shite everywhere else from ALL sides of the aisle. Doesn't belong here. I don't care what side of the fence you're on.

Dino, that’s the issue...this thread is turning into members attacking each other. I’m not saying I agree or disagree with your post, but obviously it offends the majority. Let’s just all back away.

My politics are sure to rattle some here, so I just leave them. I hold political views for more than one country so its more or less a guarantee! I like the avatar though, Dino. Thats a nice picture. I just look at some places like it was when I was in the Navy. Talking about politics in most places in the Navy could get you in a whole heap of trouble. The one chief who really threw the book at me, after we were done, told me he agreed with almost all of my politics. Its just how some places are.

Honestly, I'm not even offended. I don't even give a crap about the content of original post, except to say that its a politically sensitive topic. It's bound to cause a big fat stupid argument that goes nowhere, and everyone involved is going have a sore hiney in the end. The amount of red inflamed bums on the rest of the internet is enough. Let's keep keep our posteriors happy here, like they're supposed to be.

It never ceases to amaze me how polarized the Vocal Minority can get about things with which they disagree. I don't get it.
This WAS NOT intended to be political. IT WAS and IS a Documentary based off of Fact Based Data provided by REAL Scientist.
Calling it a Political Documentary is at it's least naive. At its worst, intentionally untruthful.
Look at the facts here this evening. 1, Only 1 of you have even watched it, yet you feel you somehow have the right to DEEM what should or shouldn't be posted or discussed, despite the complete absence of politics or religion in the film or my responses to you all.
There are thousands of other threads here, yet you feel it necessary to Pile On?
I'm utterly amazed and quite disappointed really.

Seriously guys? Is it a full moon?
All I can say is I’m disappointed in everyone involved, including those who felt the need to respond from the peanut gallery.
If anyone has any questions, feel free to private message me.
