Are liberal/alarmists just character assassins?
It seems that whenever anyone disagrees with these elites (liberals/socialists/alarmists) they are
immediately attacked on this site and the name calling starts or that a denier has misspelled a word, or whatever the attack may be. These elites who call them selves scientists (who are not) have and see only one truth and that is their truth in contrary to what a true scientist strives for.
This virtue of the elites are not apparent on this site and please open the link below on Keith Olbermann's appology to Brown after calling him a homophobe, racist and every name in the book because he won the race in NJ.
This I believe is the American socialist party. Most moderate democrats I know are appalled at the actions of the far left in their party and this is just but one example.
What say you?
Dawei, you proved my point to the letter...but I still have to delete your answer as you do so many others. Grow up kid.

This is an example of a seemingly sincere question (it isn't) that received largely sincere, polite responses.

These are examples of non-sincere, impolite, and offensive questions that largely receive similar responses. You see the difference?
It's ironic that you ask "Are liberal/alarmists just character assassins?", while also asking "Who agrees that many alarmists are Hitler youths?" just hours before.

From the Christian perspective, making fake statements approximately yet another person in step with gossip and hearsay is tantamount to mendacity approximately them, and such behaviour is roundly condemned in Scripture. Any that passes on such gossip without first ascertaining its reality and accuracy is likewise a breaker of commandments and does devil's - the Accuser - paintings. merely those that are merciful with others will qualify for a merciful judgement while that Day dawns. gaining understanding of the reality in this IT age is easier than it ever has been interior the history of mankind. there are various stable web content whose researchers seem into the tens of millions of spoofs and hoaxes that abound on the internet, and that are continuously revived, as much as date, and recirculated. making a judgement that a guy or woman is a character murderer relies upon, as do all different judgement calls, upon regardless of info for and against is offered. whether, if i chanced on a tremendously spiced tit-little bit of gossip a pair of properly oftentimes used public discern, and overjoyed in sharing that information with others, whose ends is that revelation serving? God's? devil's? Mammon's? Telling all one is standard with for no different reason than self-aggrandisement, or religious, ethnic, or political dislike is to dismiss the severe ethical standards of revealed faith. And, if the Bible is right, people who gain this are mentioned as 'liars' and have chosen death over life, lies over reality, and darkness over gentle. contained regarding those liars that don't repent, they are, in accordance to the Scriptures, 'thrust down into hell.'

The character attacks are for those who are condescending and use offensive words like "alarmists". The very few people who come here genuinely open minded and interested in learning are never called names. Maybe you think the deniers here are subtle, but it is very, very easy to tell the difference between a biased person who otherwise has no interested in climate science, and an open minded skeptic.
And as for you, you are clearly biased, extremely conservative, and generally closed-minded with regards to AGW. You are not skeptical, you are 100% confident that you are correct (opposite of what a "skeptic" should be), that the hard work of thousands of scientists is a massive conspiracy, and that AGW is fundamentally flawed because of things like the well understood 800 year lag (which is the only scientific argument I have ever seen you make).
Come here with a mature attitude and some hint that you're actually interested in discussing science in a calm and open minded way, and you will be amazed at how much differently you are received, even if your ideas are completely contrary to the mainstream opinion. But if you continue being detached from reality, acting like the science of AGW could only possibly be believed if you are part of some "elite" handful of communist extremists, then you will continue to be received negatively. Open your eyes a little and you might be surprised to learn that many proponents (including myself) are just not as interested in politics as you think we are. I've said this before, but there really is more to life than American politics.

Liberal/conservative, it makes no difference. Politicians, in general, have very low moral values. How much power do we really want to give to the power-hungry?

Alarmunists build their strategies on character assassination, and faulty appeal to authority.
No logic there... let's move along.
Edit...
Astonishing that the person who tosses around the word "denier" so easily can weep about being called an alarmist.

Liberals get so flustered when they encounter dissent. Character assassination is the only weapon in their bag.
- Didier DrogbaLv 61 decade ago
Yes. And they consider our relentless questions of/on the merits of their thesis to be "attacks."

You forgot communists and vegetarians. I fail to understand how this has anything to do with proving or disproving the scientific basis behind climate change though.

I say that there is the *EXACT SAME* behavior from deniers/teabaggers...so don't go playing holier-than-thou. You, especially, don't qualify.
