Michael Moore has a new movie

Post by marksman » 27 Apr 2020, 9:05 pm

Michael Moore released the documentary “Planet of the Humans,” free to charge this week to mark Earth Day.

"Green groups are actually trying to get 'Planet of the Humans' banned.

"Isn't that a sign of the times? If you don't like the message, just try and ban it."

the left is imploding, worth a good laugh

He is a biased doco maker, famous for making the anti gun "bowling for Columbine" film..

He is notoriously left wing which makes it hilarious that they are trying to ban him, and for what? Pointing out that which those in Cologne Germany have already pointed out through a mile of research ten feet deep, that EV cars are starkly inefficient compared to diesel and petrol hybrids and turbo diesel engines. And that the EV push is merely backed by the same coal and gas burning energy companies that already pollute, and take the piss.

What a wonderful transformation Bill.
It went from "who dat" to placement on the forbidden to watch register in no time.
So it looks like I will be compelled to watch it now.

Sergeant Hartman, propaganda only has any effect when the susceptible unquestioning target audience don't realise that they are being propagandised. Have you ever noticed just how much regurgitation of advertising slogans there is on shooting forums.

I find it absolutely hilarious Michael Moore is compulsory viewing for the right wing gang bangers, must be that time of the month :lol:

Id prefer to watch fishing black bass in PNG and rock fishing for spandiards, each to their own I guess :drinks:

Hell boyz maybe watch some local content instead of some Seppo Leftard crap, Amberleigh West (Playboy bunny) was on plenty of YBS episodes

Well i just watched it...maybe you other boys should go to your room & do the same...naughty naughty...!!...

SOme good things in there i think... :clap:
Although it is using the same style of dramatic sensational editing to get its point across, & personally im sick of that style of reporting-
Good on him for admitting his attitude toward green issues in the past was naive... :thumbsup: ...i doubt we'll see the likes of Greta & co admitting such things... :silent:

49:32 -- 51:50 is worth a watch--particularly something David Attenbro & Greta's followers need to listen to...how cool is that Social Psycologist...!!!!... :clap:

And for what its worth...for those thinking of building a deck out of Indonesian/Malaysian timber without having world class certification traceability to the source of the timber...skip all the way to 1:30:40 & watch it for 3 mins until the screen goes black to see why its worth paying extra for native Australian selective harvested timber... :clap:

Just my little "environmental contribution" to the world for today... :D

it's always hilarious when the dumbest group around, the lefty climate change "activists", get called out by one of their own. It's also satisfying to see a doco that is talking about stuff I have been banging on about forever and something that more people might now understand; the supposed cure for "climate change" is worse than the disease.

What I mean by that is that carbon dioxide is being used to gain money/power at the expense of the actual environment, and so all they are doing is creating more waste and more pollution to solve their "problem" of choice, which is actually just a way of enriching themselves. If you forget about the carbon dioxide nonsense, focus on pollution, water issues, sustainable forests etc you go a long way to solving the environmental problems it is highlighting.

The whole "too many people" thing needs to be called out; that's something that the Club of Rome in particular started talking about have been talking about for decades (back when it was global cooling, and the cold would cause crops to fail...) and they have always been wrong because it is part of their agenda, not based on proper science. Plus, population growth is actually slowing around the world and will start to decline in the coming decades. The UN numbers are showing a peak of 10-11bn people this century and then the population starts to decline, and even now population growth is being driven by Africa with Asia flattening out and the rest of the world either steady or in decline. Of course, this is never mentioned by the "cull the population" folk.

Solving the real, underlying, problem is more complicated, because that is an economic/financial one. "Economic growth" is based on consuming, and that's because of the way economists do the calculations and how the money supply works (they always tell you that "consumption" is 70% of economic growth, so you need to "consume" more...basically the retail outlet contributes more to the economy than the production to make the goods it sells, total nonsense). There are a lot of people with a lot of money at stake who want to make sure that doesn't change.

Precisely poid it's all been a divide and conquer strategy from the start. Pure propaganda and a complete waste of actual time and life.

"I’ll go further and state that I don’t think a clear truth can be found anywhere anymore - it’s a new world with fake news everywhere and...there’s no such thing as “unbiased or without prejudice”

your spot on there Tassie :thumbsup:

being old school l will not associate with anyone who cannot plain speak the truth, there are still a few out there :drinks:
