Ah, the stupid, it burns like a magnesium flare.
Here’s a collection of some of the most zany, crazy and interesting signs, tweets, and photos from the “People’s Climate March” going on today. To understand what you are about to see, view their game plan first:
This post will be updated through the day.
Ok here we go…who says a college education isn’t worth anything today?
BTW this photo below looks to be in Dallas, on the “grassy knoll” in Dealy plaza…maybe they don’t realize the symbolism of standing there with this sign, maybe they do, and that’s their point. Either way – bizarre.
Umm….WTF?
Polar bears and swamp things…RESIST!
I’m guessing bust…
Maura Healy, attorney general for Massachusetts part of #exxonknew
Sheldon Whitehouse – Mr. #exxonknew
Hmm, I see a visit from the secret service in her future.
I’m guessing this burned some eyballs…
UPDATE: 4/30/17:
When I want advice about how to reduce carbon emissions, I prefer to listen to someone like Richard Branson, who RUNS A FLEET OF AIRPLANES.
Seems they left a lot of trash while “saving the planet”…
…and this is where they went:

further proof that stereotypes exist for a reason…
Why do all the guys look like the nerds we used to beat up in high school? Oh, wait, they are the nerds we used to beat up in high school
I was one of the nerds in High School.
I was also 6’3″ and 250lbs, and the smart jocks knew to keep steppin’ ^¿^
Funny I was both a jock and a nerd and a band kid…no one knew how to characterize me but none messed with me either.
Of course it didn’t stick because now I am both of three things… oh well
I was looking through those and looking for Boy. Him and Wifey are visiting in DC and I can just see him wander around, pointing and laughing while eating pulled pork samiches and drinking a beer.
They are a mass of contradictions. They want $15 min wage but then wonder why their favorite bookstore and restaurant closed. They want the “collective” and claim to represent “the people” but when the people vote and we get Trump they reject it. The same people here talking about resistance and revolution also want safe spaces and to ban guns and frankly I wouldn’t follow any of these people into battle. They claim the moral high ground and then have leaders like Gleick.
Venezuela.
Didn’t you notice how quiet they got when the Tomahawks flew after Assad’s gas attack? How many of those zeta-males visualize themselves in battle, eh? The Deplorables will fight while these chromosome-deficients will scuttle back under their polyester rugs.
Mindless drones empowered by the collective, amplified by the media and weaponized by the manipulators.
Does the majority of the US population view these protesters as loonies or concerned citizens with a valid platform?
Mark, if 1 million people marched (street partied) today…
…320 million people did not
Of the 319 million who didn’t march what is their position? We know from poll after poll that it’s last on their list of worries but that’s not the question. Do they believe the hype or not?
Many times more people, mostly male, are concerned with the NFL draft.

Of course most Concerned Believers are more concerned about other issues.

We elected a skeptic president. He got 46.1% of the vote. Some Libertarians and even Democrats are also skeptical. Green Meanies, not so much.
The majority of the US population doen’t care. The rest think they are loonies (all the not so hidden Marxist/socialist stuff), troughers (renewable energy types and climate scientists), or brainwashed and deluded college kids and their professors (McKibben of 350.org)- if not just cycnical politicians (including Whitsides of Rhode Island and Healy of Massachusetts).
California Governor Jerry Brown recently advised alarmists to emphasize coming catastrophes. Translation: Our problem is not that we lie. We just don’t lie enough.
I’m trying to remember the name of the “scientist” (Schneider????) who told his fellow scientists that they had to decide for themselves whether it was more important to be honest, or to be effective.
view these protesters
=============
a whole lot of people would like to see reliable, non-polluting, cheap energy. some believe that governments are like loving parents, passing out an allowance each week to take care of their children. others see governments more like the bully at the end of the street, that beats you up if you don’t give him your allowance.
The Founding Fathers of America were definitely in the second group. Having forgotten the lessons of history, their descendants are more like the first group.
A government big and powerful enough to give them everything they want and desire; is also capable of snatching it all away.
Which leads back to real purpose of Global Warming ShamWow – United Nations and its member governments being able to control respective citizens.
You will buy ethanol gas, you will pay carbon taxes, you will use non incandescent lights, you will accept smart meters, you will pay to subsidies Wind and Solar farms, you will drive Eco-friendly cars, you will buy Green, you will buy low-volume toilets, you will shower with trickle, you will think what we tell you to, you will Comply…
The majority of the U.S. population is grilling burgers and dawgs and watching a baseball game. “Global warming” is way, way south of nose hair and toenail fungus on the list of Americans’ concerns. Rightfully.
Most likely they ignored them, because they had sh*t to do.
Admittedly not a representative sample, but everyone I know considers the marchers to be looney tunes.
The morons are marching in the snow in Denver!!
Make Earth ‘Cool’ again, dude.
To the chubb-face on the right.
You can’t cultivate anything without CO2. !!
Mind you , cultivation probably also quite difficult at your current temperature. 🙂
All 15 of ’em. “Soros’ Children.” Gee, I’m all inspired, ain’t you?

Usually.
Science was invented by white men. Any use of the Scientific method or discussion of scientific issues by, people of color, women, or the LGBTQASDFJKL community is:
CULTURAL APPROPRIATION!
The sexuality of Copernicus and Newton is questionable, however. Church canon Copernicus was accused of living in sin with his cousin housekeeper, so was probably straight, even if they weren’t an item. Newton, maybe not so much. Probably just asexual, but there have been rumors of an intimate friendship with a man.
But most great scientists have been flaming heteros.
History as gossip. The kids like it better that way.
Einstein was a playa
I thought the complete acronym was LGBTQWERTY.

None of them seem to live in the real world.

You have to be a fan of Superman comics to get that reference.

There are people who aren’t?
Regardless, Mxyzptlk made it to one of the Saturday morning cartoons.
Hear, hear!!!!!! Beat them bloody with their own crap.
Wouldn’t you have to wait for it to freeze first?
Confucius believes you are confused.
Who taught the Greeks math?
How did men of the steppes learn to utilize horn in their bows?
Was the Northern Egyptian Kingdom, suddenly overrun with Caucasians?
How did Native Americans learn to avoid rickets and scurvy during long winters?
Who did the Aborigines learn their survival skills from?
The Inuit still hunt whales from skin covered bumbershoots afloat on Arctic seas.
Who poisoned the Greeks when the Greeks were convinced they had conquered the world.
Perhaps a little more honey, Alexander?
Science is where and when applied, by people learning from observations that then use reason to thoroughly test hypothesis.
“Who taught the Greeks math?”
Me thinks it t’was either the Sumerians or the Babylonians.
I wonder how many of these folks can find their way home at nght?
That question presupposes an unsubstantiated assumption that they are not homeless. Many in the march photos resemble the many homeless here in Fort Lauderdale.
Liars and Leftists and bears, oh my.
How is it that so many causes are all hitched to the same wagon?
Is there an unwritten law of the universe that requires every progressive cause to to support every other left wing cause?
The uniform adherence by all is not a healthy kind of advocacy.
Steve Oregon, you need to look up the concept of intersectionality, which is now the underlying philosophy of the SJW movement. Yes all causes are hitched to the same wagon.
Thanks Charles. I did look it up. This explains everything.
“Intersectionality is the idea that multiple infections intersect to create a parasite that is more aggressive than the component identities.”
Ok I may have amended that a bit.
But it looks like it makes ya dumb.
http://www.tabletmag.com/jewish-news-and-politics/196754/intersectionality-makes-you-stupid
CtM, thanks for that. Learned something new.
Not all causes, Charles, only the Left Wing ones.
Someone above mentioned what happened to the CAGW believers that tried to promote nuclear power as clean and CO2 free. And for some reason the Lefts absolute faith in ‘Science!’ doesn’t extend to genmod foods or fracking.
In fact, it seems to me the only time the Left has absolute trust in science is when that science is fairly weak and unconvincing. ~¿~
Name that parasite!
Bureaucracy?
Totalitarianism?
Selective Coexistivism?
TwistNshoutivism?
The Puppeteers
The synonym for “intersectionality” is “Ouroborus.” As in “snake, swallowing itself tail-first.” 😉
Mutual back-scratching
“so many causes are all hitched to the same wagon”
It is only way they have sufficient numbers to drive each of their whining needless faux causes.

Once you discover you’re a whole lot smarter and more socially just than hundreds of millions of supposedly fellow citizens, it’s just hard to hold back your greatness.
Yes. Feeling superior in every way can be very addictive. And just plain fun!
It’s hard to be humble when everyone else is so inferior. Here’s Mac Davis with his take on it with the Muppets.
It took Hitler 12 years to completely destroy Germany. Democrats only ruled for 8 years.
H had help from thousands of Allied bombers.
The ‘Women’s March’ was a pasty white sore-loser march.
The ‘March for Science’ was pasty white sore-loser march.
Today’s ‘Climate March’ is just another pasty white sore-loser march.
I had to go to Capitol Hill at noon today… I saw the folks heading to th march
“People’s Climate March” org reminds me of Communes and People’s Republic of China – a communist State.
Which also reminds me, the members of “People’s Climate March” should leave the United States of America, being we are a Republic. If People’s CM want Communism, Fascism, or Socialism – there are plenty of countries they are not Free to live in.
It is very strange and hilarious to be told that “THERE IS NO PLANET B” by the very people who live in that Planet B of Nay….:-)
Oh for the ‘B’ Ark.
That reminds me, a friend who grew up in Columbia recently told me that she knew a number of girls whose names were pronounced oosnavee. It’s spelled USNavy.
There was also the popular name pronounced onaydoyar. Spelled OneDollar.

I’m worried by all the confusion
I wonder ’bout the lies I’ve been reading
I wonder where this madness is leading”
I am sick of all the whining about Polar Bears. The population continues to grow even as they whine about it.
But more to the point, the “cute” polar bears a viscous, mean predator. I would like to see some of those protestors try to pet one of the darn things.
In a metaphorical sense, polar bears are already biting warmunists big time. Dr. Crawford has definitively shown the ‘science’ was just wrong. The bears are thriving, defying the catastrophic projections based on the faulty bear science. One of the top ten skeptical soundbites to explode watermelon heads. Posted 8 of the soundbites again today at the Willis debate guest post.
Oh no! It’s worse than we thought. The polar bears are now able to ooze about stickily to get their prey. How vicious can they get?
Just a little ribbing. I don’t know how many times I have done something just like that!
‘I am marching for climate change’
I thought we were supposed to be against it?
They probably ‘give for world hunger’ too.
I wanted to give to world hunger, but I couldn’t find it’s address.
Is it just my opinion or do many of these people seem, as the British might say, not well formed?
..it’s their uniform
I’d call them ‘barmy in the crumpet.’
Crumpet? as in ” A bit of crumpet”?
The syllogism is solid:
1. Tens of thousands of people drive hundreds of thousands of (aggregate) miles to Washington
2. Walk around holding silly signs
3. Tens of thousands of people drive hundreds of thousands of (aggregate) miles home
4. (Missing step)
5. Climate improves
OK, OK, I’m not quite done, but I have four out of five
4. Force other people (“deniers”) to live like they are in a Third World hellhole, “offsetting” all those miles. Serves them right for not contributing to the cause.
Dim bulbs marching for a dimmer future.

Oops. I meant:
Damn it Bruce, you actually had me excited for the Chicken March. >¿<

Illegal immigrants boycott Trump immigration policies. Makes sense. Run and hide in a sanctuary city before he catches them and cuts off fed funds to the sanctuaries.
Sooo, a whole bunch of illegal immigrants are going to gather in one place at a pre declared time…
Why won’t Immigration be there in force to round these people up?
word didn’t like some word….

I see Peter Gleick has managed to worm himself into the climate march.
That truck with the polar bears? Top Kek.
The Easter parade has mutated .
Just a bunch of relics from “The Greening of America.” Been there, done that. Then I grew up. Some of these marchers look like they are going through a second childhood.
