Climate Kristallnacht
Bad Timing.
Seventy Two years to the day of the start of the government sanctioned pogrom against the Jews, the Greens in Germany are trying to purge another undesirable group from the German rank and file – Climate Skeptics. From unofficial resistance leader Anthony Watts at WUWT:
When I first saw this I thought to myself “maybe posting this isn’t appropriate on Veterans Day”. Then, after additional reflection, I realized this is exactly what our American veterans and the allies fought for: freedom of speech and freedom from tyranny. The seeds of tyranny appear to be taking hold again in the German government at least when it comes to climate change issues…
Right smack on the anniversary of Kristallnacht, German Parliamentarians, in a frontal assault, are now openly calling out and branding scientists for the crime of scientific dissent. These out-of-control Parliamentarians are demanding that the German government take a position against dissenting views in climate science.
What follows makes McCarthyism look like a treasure hunt. What a number of zealous German Parliamentarians are calling for borders on a call to launch a science pogrom.
The climate dogmatists are finding it increasingly difficult to cope with the growing scepticism and dissent now spreading in Germany and Europe, and want to stamp it out – and now.
Thank God they weren’t smart enough to get around to this while their power was at its peak, and are only doing it as a response of their political decline.
