<p>[quote user="jeffhergert"]No, nothing directly or only for you. I just used your post because it was the handiest one that was appropriate for the comic's theme. [/quote]</p> <p>It is a nice comic, and contains the necessary exaggerations and factoids to make it funny. Does it fit? I'm not sure.</p> <p>I always thought discussions are used to exchange arguments. You try to convince your dialog partner of your own opinions.</p> <p>With global warming it doesn's seem to work. But one keeps trying, and when one reads what looks like a false argument, you try to show the error.</p> <p>And then there are arguments like: must be wrong because it is a leftist agenda, is not proven (there might never be 100% proof), the "believer" don't allow so called "deniers" in the discussion, academics vs. less educated people etc.</p> <p>If we won't allow deniers in the discussion why discuss with them here?</p> <p>Some of the above mentioned "arguments" are called thought-terminating cliché in Germany.</p> <p>Presumably we have a different discussion culture in Germany and it is for sure much less guided by political bias that might blind people for evidence and/or facts.</p> <p>One last comment: A today published representative survey showed that for 71% of the eligibler voter in Germany climate change is the greatest concern.<br />Regards, Volker</p>
