Global Warming and Manhood
Global Warming is all about Manhood. I know this from listening to Rush Limbaugh and reading the right-wing blogs (try here and here). This is why GW liberals are losing the propaganda war. They are talking about Science, not Manhood. This is a mistake. They should be calling out their opponents as whiners and wimps. Most denialists don’t understand the science nor do they care to, because this drives “libs” crazy. But scratch a denialist and you will find a man apparently insecure about his masculinity. Read the blogs – it’s all there (my favorite Limbaugh sneer is “castrati”). With California AB32 (story here) now under attack, it’s going to be about Manhood all the way to the November ballot. Scientists, of course, should continue to talk about science, but media and policy types would be well advised to talk about a different kind of emission. Elitist policy-makers should make more of an effort to engage opponents on green job-creation (like this). Their opponents are the dispossessed. They resent being shut out of the political process and, rightfully, they resent the hypocrisy and the Nanny State over-reach. Too much policy-making in this country since the 1980’s is done top-down. But, if policy-makers reach out and the whiners continue to complain, which they will, then call them on it for being wimps who defend unsustainable population growth and corporate polluters in order to keep their manhood intact.
