Climate ?Science? is Now Pure Politics Wed Oct 15, 2025 07:00 | Ben Pile
The appointment of Imperial's Dr Friederike Otto to the IPCC shows that climate 'science' is now pure politics, says Ben Pile. Unable to produce actual evidence of 'extreme' weather, they resort to 'attribution studies'.

Jump To Comment: 1A small relevant extract from new translation of Comments on The Society of The Spectacle By Guy Debord. Translation by Not Bored. It is truly a wonderful read.
"Thus, a thousand of conspiracies in favor of the established order tangle and clash almost everywhere, with the overlapping of networks and secret questions or actions always pushed harder; and the process of rapid integration is pushed into each branch of the economy, politics and culture. The degree of intermingling in surveillance, disinformation and special activities continually grows in all areas of social life. The general conspiracy has become so dense that it is almost out in the open, each of its branches starts to hinder or trouble the others, because all these professional conspirators are spying on each other without exactly knowing why, or encounter each other by chance, yet without recognizing each other with certainty. Who is observing whom? On whose behalf, apparently? And actually? The real influences remain hidden, and the ultimate intentions can only be suspected with great difficulty and almost never understood. So that while no one can say he is not deluded or manipulated, it is only in rare instances that the manipulator himself can know he has succeeded. And, besides, finding oneself on the winning side of manipulation does not mean that one has justly chosen the strategic perspective. It is thus that tactical successes can get great forces stuck on bad paths."
