Communists get a free pass for some reason. Do nazis get a free pass too?

They tried to use the same bull in the 1970s, saying that in 50 years the earth would be so polluted that crops would fail and everyone would starve.

Ramona Massachi says "end of story". Anyone who says 'end of story' or 'case closed' has no argument.
Akkad Daily: Bernie Sanders is Leading a Dangerous Movement, with his supporters "driving trucks of peace into Republican voter registration booths" and sniping Senators at baseball practice. Another Democratic Socialist candidate Bre Kidman is using a guillotine as a logo.

Despite the theory [some hold] that we live under a crystal sphere, this paper (which may or may not be peer reviewed) finds Low Latitude Lightning Activity Responses to Cosmic Ray Forbush Decreases

Or claims that it's "settled science".
Even laws of science aren't as settled as we thought they were.

Refraining from name-calling is not a free pass. Communism scaled up to national level size is heinous, which is why the ideas need to be criticized in more detail. Commie Pig convinces nobody. |

Think in terms of casting aspersions. Generally doesn't elevate the discourse.
That's different than 'getting a free pass' on some rando's opinion.

If your link means we should be worrying about the planet warming.
Then my link means we should be worrying about the planet cooling... 
Time will tell...

These cold snaps are part of the overall warming of the planet - the melting Arctic ice is leading to a weakened jet stream, and this in turn is why we are seeing cold temps in some areas - cold Arctic air is "escaping" from the Arctic. And the Arctic ice continues to diminish more and more quickly.
Your data point doesn't challenge what we know about the climate. |

I is unusually warm up here, has been for some time too. Up to 17 degrees Celsius.
I guess Saudi Arabia got a polar vortex and we got their wind.
