It is tough for the borg to control people in the information age, since the educated public has access to actual facts and data.
Poll: One in Four ‘Solidly Skeptical’ of Global Warming
A new Gallup poll that coincides with Earth Day finds the number of Americans with mixed opinions about global warming has declined from 49 percent in 2001 to 36 percent today, but many have joined the ranks of the skeptics

I firmly believe that this is great news. Having an educated view of the CAGW ruse will, in general, force a life long liberal to abandon their party. Get that percentage a little higher, and it will become political suicide to support green energy policies with regard to energy generation.
I have been a liberal Democrat most of my life, but no longer can stand to listen to their drivel. The time is ripe for a 3rd party candidate, as many people are sick to death of the two traditional parties, that are both corrupt and have both stunk up the works.
If it is Hillary vs Jeb, Mickey Mouse could run as a 3rd party candidate and easily win.
I would love for a 3rd party candidate to come in, but I doubt anybody will even manage to equal Ross Perot’s 1992 totals. The (D) noise machine (NBC, CBS, ABC, PBS, NPR, NYT, WaPo, & the plethora of agitprop websites) won’t let anybody with a chance of beating their guy in without subjecting them to a massive smear campaign.
On the other side of the aisle, far too many (R)s remember voting for Ross Perot & thus helping elect the rapist Clinton (who would be a best-case scenario Republican these days).
Now that weed is becoming legal, I don’t see any future at all for the Libertarian party. Suckers.
Personally I’m in the “Let It Burn” party (since 1990, baby!), except that I’ve moved to the “Help It Burn” side of the aisle. I’m voting for the person I think will lead to the soonest collapse & then going into hiding.
The plan of the Progressives now is to control more and more by force. They intend to do this by stealing elections. Once they have enough control, they will complete their treachery. I suspect the only thing that could stop it is the military.
The more educated the public becomes, the greater the skepticism.
The public may actually see that keeping the UN and all it’s ideas at arms length was a good idea.
Only one in four? That is depressing news, to me.
I remember a poll from about 10 years ago that indicated 80% believed in AGW!!!
We ARE making progress.
The usual Time Inc spin was applied, limiting skeptics to the “solidly skeptical category. I take more comfort in their statement that believers remains relatively stable at 39%, which means that number is falling.
Yes! A real bummer for the “scientists”, because it makes consensus science so difficult when the educated public has access to actual facts and data. that the consensus is nothing but hot air and political rhetoric.
Must be all that oil money holding the line. /sarc
Yes, Steven, despite continuous warnings that “resistance is futile”, you have shown the Borg can be defeated by reliable facts and data !
The historical effectiveness of your approach to the current battle is documented in a common teaching of ancient scriptures:
“Truth is victorious, never untruth!“
Mundaka Upanishad 3.1.6; Qur’an 17.85, etc.
That is why the Second Chapter of my biography includes nine pages (pages 19-27) of precise experimental data that refute Standard Models of stars and nuclei by showing the Sun:
1. Is a pulsar
2. Made our elements
3. Birthed the solar system five billion years ago
4. Sustained the origin and evolution of life after 5.5 Ga ago
FEAR of nuclear annihilation is the reason world leaders decided to hide the source of energy that destroyed Hiroshima and Nagasaki sixty-nine years, as shown in this one-page summary of 1945-2014 events:

4. Sustained the origin and evolution of life after 3.5 Ga ago
GO TO THE HEADWATERS OF THE STREAM?
Although we are slowly making progress convincing the masses they have been deceived by the Borg, . . .
Might it be quicker to convince Bill Gates and other Borg members directly that their own lives are threatened by falsehoods disguised as “settled science” of the source of energy that:
1. Made our elements,
2. Birthed the solar system
3. Sustains our lives today?
I.e., instead of pushing water back up the stream (convincing the masses they have been deceived), it might be quicker to change the direction of flow at the headwaters.
They should take a poll where I work, a very large global energy equipment manufacturer. We know energy! … I would be willing to bet a weeks pay that better than 90% of the folks here consider the “Climate Change” garbage to be 100% fraudulent. And these people aren’t your average run of the mill street walking Obama supporters either. We are about 90% engineers, with a large portion of doctorates and other such high ranking edumacation stature… Almost everyone here also agrees that Bird Choppers and Sun Crispers are also huge scams. Again, we know energy, and Bird Choppers and Sun Crispers are not viable sources of energy.
Thanks, squid2112
I would appreciate your comment on the possibility of approaching the headwaters of this stream of misinformation directly with evidence that the lives of Bill Gates and every other Borg member depend on reliable information on the Sun’s source of energy.
The AGW nut jobs are getting so hysterical and ridiculous that even the average intellect person is seeing their dark intentions.
Progressives can’t understand why so few people love their Carbon Tax idea.
