If global warming deniers are actually skeptics, then why do they block everyone that disagrees with them from answering questions?
Every day in here there are multiple questions from someone that goes by "Anonymous" that are usually based on some falsehood or misleading information. I'll often write detailed answers to the questions, only to find out when I try to submit the answer that I'm blocked. Would true skeptics block others from answering their questions? Aren't skeptics supposed to look at all the evidence? If they're not really interested in answers, is the point just to spread propaganda?
As a side question, who do you think these people are that asking the questions anonymously? Since I'm blocked by them, I assume that they're people like Maxx or Cyclops, both of whom block me and used to ask numerous questions where they would intentionally mislead people. I never see questions from them any more, but I suspect that's just because they're hiding their identities.
I forgot to point out that unlike the questions from "Anonymous", not a single person is blocked from answering this question.

It is not only the people you call "deniers" who block.
How does that affect your argument?

Of course. Why should they listen to logic when they have disinformation on their side?
