Climate Deniers Call for Censorship

Climate deniers like to trumpet the ideas that they are about freedom and openness and against censorship:

It seems NASA has an agenda concerning Global Warming, and if you don’t believe the Cult, you’d better keep your mouth shut.


Yet they always seem to call for censorship when people in turn criticise them - like their so-called scepticism - only runs one way. They want censorship for their critics but freedom for them just as they shout about the most mundane error in climate science and ignore the huge whoppers they and their followers commit. Here's another example of the double standards:

Please contact Father Dennis J. Dease, President of St. Thomas University, djdease@stthomas.edu, and invite him - even at this eleventh hour - to take down Abraham's talk altogether from the University's servers, and to instigate a disciplinary inquiry into the Professor's unprofessional conduct, particularly in the matter of his lies to third parties about what I had said in my talk at Bethel University eight months ago? That would be a real help.


That's what I call freedom, debate and openness.
