Hate mail of the week

I get plenty of hate mail here at WUWT. Marc Morano at Climate Depot gets more than I do, and shared this with me. It’s fairly typical for climate alarmists and leftists to resort to such smearing, because they really don’t have anything else.

Here’s a real gem. Warning – graphic language. Note, the email address is left in because he threatens to “make a new email” if he’s blocked, so I have no privacy concerns about this cowardly jerk as the email address is likely faked to begin with.

But it’s Trump who’s coarsening the national conversation.

This writers IQ is too low to make a debatable argument in favor of you re-evaluating your actions, that they find offensive. They find those actions “offensive”, because of a “belief” structure that they cannot effectively describe because they don’t fully understand it. They just trust others who generate “fear”, more than they trust someone that outputs “logic”. And as many have pointed out “logic”, seems to be beyond the scope of their thought process. Rage has become the highest priority thread, in their system, and it is blocking the “rationality thread” from executing.
I have pity for people like this. They derive temporary satisfaction from venting on others. It is a lonely life, that ends sooner than most, in a place not of their choosing. And are not missed when they are gone.

I just prayed for your good health and peace for your immortal soul.

God answered the nasty sender of Mark’s e-mail by creating a major winter storm across the southern USA.
Best that people pray to be decent.
We await to see what God sends your way.
Peace.

God answers all prayers. It’s just that sometimes the answer is no.

Including the child who prays for his father to stop raping him at night?
Funny how that prayer never gets answered. If God exists, he must be a heartless bastard.

I used to teach high school in Sydney’s west, and could mix it with the worst of them if needed. 😉

That email seems pretty tame to me, written by a pathetic, lite-weight, non-entity !

I worked as a cop in Glasgow. Our everyday dialogue was unrepeatable on here.

This moron has no imagination whatsoever. As Einstein said (I believe) “I have been dead for millions of years and it has done me no harm whatsoever.”

Humanity exists in the blink of a celestial eye. To imagine we could do any meaningful damage, or good, to this planet is just hedonistic narcissism.

We will all be gone before the planets eyelid is lifted; believing we make a difference during it’s blink is simply clinging onto the desire for life in the face of certain death, which is humanities normal state.

Death is nothing more than a state of change and change brings with it, opportunity.

I have no fear of climate change, population growth or alien invasions. It’s simply change, and we have no control.

The idiot who wrote that email is frightened of death and seeks to project his fear.

Sad little Noollaberob*.

*We got so bored with profane language when I was a cop we were forced to concoct insults for a giggle. This is one of the few repeatable ones. ~hint~ read it backwards, the first word has 4 letters.

PS. A relative of mine was a Commander in the Royal Navy. They were so fed up with profanity (as were their wives following a deployment) they substituted ‘Harry’ for the eff word. Makes everyday expressions interesting. One wife was alleged to have squealed excitedly one evening “For Harry’s sake Harry me darling” ~Ahem~

The sailor understood and din’t divorce her.

Hot Scot, I like the way you think. When I was young, still in High school, we had professor for an environmental class. He taught us about homeostasis and how the earth adjusts itself and compensates for whatever happens to it. He then told us about the wagon trails and the paths that we create in the woods and then told us in 18 months, if no one uses them, they are back to normal.

Later he went on a rant about mankind’s footprint all over the place and how “evil” we were–with our developments and such–I raised my hand and said something like, “Well, you told us a out homeostatic and in 18 months it isn’t going to matter, so why are you upset?” I never understood why he got so angry with me. It’s like he didn’t understand his own lessons.

Obviously they don’t teach “love your enemies” in his religion!

There is wonderful climate allegory in that Christian admonition to love your enemies and to pray for those who persecute you:

“He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous*.

There is probably a lesson in those old words for all of us in the strange chaos of this post-modern world.

And so from Luke: (I did have to look these up!)

“But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.**”

I’m not religious, I just like Comparative Mythology if anybody wondered! The Upanishads are a great read too! 😉

*Matthew 5:43-48 New International Version (NIV)
**Luke 6:27-36 NIV

Many solutions comes to mind
1) track IPs from the form and give the info to the FBI
2) apply a filter on the form to block those messages
3) you can ask the location, through the browser and if not given, refuse the entry.
4) ask to answer a fairly hard math question on the form before accepting it. This will block low IQ like this ☺

Keep up the fight!

I suspect that a simple math question would be sufficient.

Thunderbird’s Bayesian algorithms do very well at learning and detecting spam like this. The giveaways are probably tiny things that we wouldn’t consciously notice, but a computer sees it.

Sorry, but guy/girl/it just doesn’t it it any more. New York City has identified thirty one genders (yes-31!). Man and Woman were created by God. The other 29 are created by the Donks.

“I get plenty of hate mail here at WUWT”
A lot of people do, and it doesn’t come from just one side. A while ago, WUWT ran a post linking to examples of mail to Phil Jones which had been obtained under FOI. Samples are here (WUWT link).

Nick,
Do you know if someone tried to examine those, at the time?
Some seem a lot alike, and not just the nasty words.
Also, I wonder if English is a 2nd language of one of the writers.
Because the 2nd Amendment is mentioned, that one is likely a USA person.
The education level seems to be very low.

It is a shame people write this sort of thing.

Of course you’re right, Nick, however, it’s just that one of the much touted premises of the modern Progressive Left about themselves is that they are the tolerant One’s, i.e., that they are ensconsed (or at least, they ensconse the Ilks of They) upon the Captain’s Chair of inclusion and what-not, when as we see with this example and others that such a belief is just another boatload of mephitic hypocrisy.

“Which of course should not decrease the repudiation…”
Of course. Actually, this email went to Marc Morano. In the earlier WUWT article I linked, speaking of emails to PJ that were similar or worse than the one cited here, AW said:
“From my perspective, having been in television and radio newsrooms for 25 years, this is pretty run of the mill stuff. I’ve also gotten emails like this in my work on TV and radio, as well as during my publication of WUWT.”

I won’t claim that some skeptics aren’t seduced by the ‘Dark Side.’ It takes great restraint not to respond in kind. When I leave detailed, factual comments to Yahoo ‘news’ articles, I have come to expect to receive insulting, emotional responses that are not responsive to my facts. They are simply the kind of name calling that was typical in elementary school, most commonly, “denier.” They behave as though they believe that they have a license to insult based on their moral and intellectual superiority. In a word, they are insufferable.

Incidentally, one of the things that I respect about you, is that even though often criticized by me and others, you respond civilly and, generally, factually. Although, we may disagree on the ‘facts.’

I disagree – I think he’s like Mosher – coming here to play the victim, claiming a phony high ground, while acting as an apologist for the real reprobates, who dominate his side of the fence, and to blur the fact that this is what WE are actually responding to.

It’s not equal – not even close – and it’s not the same thing at all. Left to our devices, WE wouldn’t be bothering anybody.

All these haters with their hate emails and threats. I keep thinking of an old joke about 2 ladies in a maternity ward about to give birth. The first if very talkative and can’t take a hint that the second doesn’t want to talk:

1st: This will be my third baby. How many will this be for you?
2cd: 2.
1st: When I had my first my hubby bought me a 2 carat diamond ring, see (holds hand out).
2cd: That’s nice.
1st: When I had my second my hubby bought me a fur coat, ankle length.
2cd: That’s nice.
1st: When I have this one my hubby is buying me a red sports car.
2cd: That’s nice.
1st: What did your husband get you for your first baby?
2cd: A book on etiquette and manners.
1st: Whatever for?
2cd: That way when someone annoys me instead of telling them to go F* themselves I just look at them and say “That’s nice”.

Maybe Mr Moranno and Watts could have an auto reply of “That’s nice” to all their hate mail?

In Texas, the phrase is “well, bless your heart”!

So much more culturally refined than the British “bugger off”.
