A great debate speech!
The book Intellectuals and Society by Thomas Sowell covers this issue. It was published in 2010 which shows this isn't a new argument, even if it's a strong one.
Those in attendance asking questions have really got to think through what they are asking before they speak up. Really wasted a lot of time of his making him repeat himself. Smallpox is back because we don’t vaccinate for it anymore 🥴 anyone previously vaccinated won’t get it unlike Covid.
There is no legitimate claim that can hold water against Actual experts. This straw man is all about supposed or improperly legitimized "experts", not the same thing at all.
But who is a legitimate “expert?” And who decides?
Hasn't this guy disqualified himself from being taken seriously with his climate science denial?
He has become like the creationist he used to argue against.
Are you no longer allowed to deny science on climate ?
I think you are proving his point.
Acknowledging that it is real whilst also acknowledging that the dangers are grossly exaggerated and solvable isn't denial, moron.
denial........is a trigger word, akin to Holocaust denial. Thus: fail. Climate 'change'?
@@sichere sure...you can deny as much of the real world you like. Just don't expect me to waste time on listening to it
