And so it begins . . .

Because banning books is always a good idea eh?

I wonder how long until "they" start asking Google to ban/suppress links to information they disagree with.

Science by consensus! We will tolerate no dissent! Is your mind for the purge!

Well, the climate change deniers threw the first stone anyway (see Canada for a government wide effort at that under conservatives). That ban is peanuts by comparison.

Want to protests the ban of that? Sure, go ahead, you are on principle right that authority is not the way to do science, yet they will have the same pity that we'd have for flat earthers or creationists.

Is there any reason books denying climate change should be taught in public schools except to point out how wrong the authors were? If I were a math teacher I wouldnt want books that teach incorrect match to be allowed in a public school.

It's not the consensus among scientists that climate change is real that invalidates such a banned book but the scientific evidence supporting climate change.

But I do understand your point of view, sometimes science gives us answers we don't like. For example I'll always call Pluto a planet even though I agree with the science behind the classification of it not being one.

If that were true the solar system would consist of like 1,300 planets.
That political correctness imposed by social justice warriors will destroy our society.

It's because of it's orbit or something like that. I'm at work so I can't really research it right now.

I haven't actually looked at that for a few years (?) so I could be wrong. Now I gotta glewgle it. ><
