Bill Nye, how far you have fallen
" No. You are talking about biological sex and they are talking about sexual orientation. It is like chicken and dog speaking a different language. " 1 ) Science should be independent. If Climate change is a scientific theory, you either find evidences supporting it or against it. We don't care what your opinions are or what you think. 2 )They do care about pollution, but if you think they would do it in a way that would vastly affect their economical progress, you would be mistaken. Dealing with poverty and their economical prosperity is their higher priority. |

" There is supposed to be biological sex, then gender and then sexual orientation, ie. three (3) things. Ask your progressive buddies, if you don't believe me. You actually have biologically born men, who identify as a woman and have sex with other women. Which would make them lesbian trans-women, according to progressives and weird hetero dudes according to everyone else. " Well DOH!, that's my point. How are you gonna save Earth from global warming, if you get on board just EU, US and Canada? That's why people are so skeptic about this and see it as a mean for our governments to extract more taxes from our businesses. Sure, "science away" and debate global warming, but when you arrive to some solution, make sure you can implement & enforce it across the whole globe, not just gimp the western economies with it.

" In all seriousness, Lesbian trans-women sound fine to me, I wouldn't call them heterosexual. " Nearly 200 nations signed the Paris agreement. USA, Russia and China have the largest carbon emission. Cut the carbon emission of those countries and it is cutting carbon emission by a significant amount. OR alternatively if these largest carbon emission countries refuse, cutting carbon emission would have significantly less impact. It is nonsense if you say USA does not have significant impact. USA would be gimping the Paris agreement and everyone if it back out. Just so you know. How many countries would still keep to their promise or break the agreement? |

Regardless of your feelings on the issues of gender... that segment was unwatchable. What in the actual fuck. If nothing else, that does quite a disservice to people who *are* trying to make a serious argument for gender fluidity, or whatever else. Having that kind of cringe-worthy "musical number" shit... is probably more HARMFUL for their cause than it does good...
U MAD?

" Nearly 200 countries signed the Kyoto protocol, and? Not much was achieved, else we wouldn't need a Paris agreement. The only party that is serious about carbon emissions & pollution is Europe / EU. If there is a mostly man made global warming, the world is at mercy of China & US and seeing how these two are tied in a competition for the title 'superpower', it doesn't look very promising.

" Well the problem as you should very well know, its exactly that, politics in science. It is on both sides. That climate change happens is accepted, whether its caused by humans or not is the part where people disagree with, people include scientists. When you monetary backing is withdrawn because you reach a different conclusion than what is politically wanted then its when we have a problem. While it always existed, I'd say politicization of science started peaking with a "documentary" by a well known political liar ("I invented the internet" AH!) As I see it, the data is inconclusive. I do think however that its ideal that we reduce pollution. Oblivious

" I think the idiom went over your head. /facepalm The big deal is that this video is so cringeworthy and makes me wonder if it is nothing but propraganda. The old Bill Nye videos was comical, but at least it got the point across for young adolescences to understand some of the science topics he would bring up while not trying to brainwash. Another thing I noticed from one of the comments that pointed out on the video " Sometimes you can take the game out of the garage but you can't take the garage out of the game. - raics, 06.08.2016 Last edited by JohnNamikaze on Apr 26, 2017, 3:02:09 PM

I wish atheists would return to their old-school Darwinist roots. It's as if only religious fundamentalists like Erdogan believe in natural selection anymore, while the politically correct, culturally acceptable opinions all point towards rendering oneself sterile through elective medical procedures, killing the unborn in the womb, and in delaying parenthood in favor of career until one is too old to properly pursue it.
Don't get me wrong, here: I am firmly for the liberty to reassign one's gender or engage in non-reproductive sex. I'm also against the draft, but that doesn't mean I'd be okay with no one wanting to join the military in a time that calls for war. Respecting the right for one to do something is different from being okay with the popularization of such behavior. We need people with good genes and, more importantly, good values to have children and raise them to be even better than they were. That is our future and our secular afterlife. And I fear the current glamorization of non-reproductive lifestyles and abandonment of family values poses a grave threat to the future of human civilization. When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero. Since his life model decoy isn't up to the task, please do not mistake my performance as political discussion. I'm just doing what Steve would have wanted.
