If you haven’t already noticed, suddenly there is a joint media effort around the globe pushing the same message at the same time, making all the Chicken Littles scream in terror: Climate Crisis.
One headline read: What would the Earth look like if all the ice melted? The answer is terrifying. Oh, dear. All the fun spots of Earth underwater, you know, like the pretty islands where the rich and famous vacation and Martha’s Vineyard where the rich and famous live and the five boroughs of NYC where the rich and famous live way up high and so forth.
Another headline read: Humans have exceeded six of the nine boundaries keeping earth habitable. [The rest of the unstated headline reads: What will happen if we exceed all nine?] Oh, dear. Billions will die! But isn’t that good for the Earth not to have so many people using it up and wearing it out?
During the last couple of weeks as I’ve been slapped silly with similarly scary statements, I began to see a pattern. It is the use of the word if, even if the if is implied.
All these things are based on Science. Yes, science with a capital S which implies the discipline is sacred, hallowed, pure, and virtuous like all the Vestal Virgins whose task was to keep the goddess Vesta’s fires ever burning. Vestal Virgins were chosen from highborn families in Ancient Rome and granted unimaginable privileges unheard of for any other woman.
Sounds like the mainstream media are those Vestal Virgins keeping hot the fires of the deity Climate Crisis.
One of those “Vestal Virgins” is Mohamad Safa who posted a graphic on Twitter/X that said the following:
“If you are not a scientist, and you disagree with scientists about science, it’s actually not a disagreement. You’re just wrong. Science is not truth. Science is finding the truth. When science changes its opinion, it didn’t lie to you. It learned more.” Twitter/X handle: @mhdksafa
Who is Mohamad Safa? He tells us on his Twitter/X page with this information: CEO. Diplomat rel. @PVAenglish main representative at United Nations ECOSOC and accredited at United Nations Geneva Office.
What is the #PVA? It is an international NGO with Special Consultative Status at the United Nations ECOSOC supposedly to ensure human rights and improve the lives of people affected by poverty & emergencies though, frankly, they speak grandiose things but that tongue of theirs is getting them into hot water as they fail grandly around the globe.
ECOSOC serves as the central forum for discussing international economic and social issues, and formulating policy recommendations addressed to member states and the United Nations System. ECOSOC has 54 members. That means they are good at running that mouth at citizens but they run it on behalf of dictatorships, Communists, and other radical elements as they also recommend solutions that punish rightful citizens of every country.
Were you aware that Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) have risen from about 130 at the beginning of the 20th century to currently 6000? Other than the one mentioned here, can you name another? I can’t. All we ever hear is “the NGO this says…” and “the NGO recommends that…”. All that 6000 number does is tell me we’ve got more rabble rousers than we can shake a stick at — and I bet all of them are Vestal Virgins, right?
However, let’s break down that original quote.
It is interesting that Mr. Safa, born in Lebanon, started out with an opinion stated as fact: That anyone who is not a scientist is wrong when they disagree with Science.
To prove that statement, Safa then states that Science is not truth but is about finding truth.
All that sounds really cute as he twists up his spin to full rotational force by admitting Science can be wrong, too, and upon getting more information, why, lo and behold, it will change its truth. Of course, now we are back at the beginning of the statement: “If you are not a scientist, and you disagree with scientists about Science, it’s actually not a disagreement. You’re just wrong.”
Don’t you just love that circular reasoning? Science is correct until it decides it missed something and then once it finds that then it is still correct. That’s right, Science is never incorrect or wrong. No, no, no. Science is still searching for the light of that great truth that nobody else that isn’t a scientist can never find. O! The agony and the ecstasy.
But is this the whole story?
No. Most folks with half a logical brain have already spotted the holes in Mr. Safa’s reasoning.
What Safa fails to acknowledge is that Science is not and never has been the sole holder of nor the only one privy to all knowledge or understanding at any given time.
Neither does Safa acknowledge that one does not have to pay for the title of Scientist nor pay for a degree to experiment in The Sciences. Before such titles were bought and paid for, scientists existed and could be found all over the world in little rooms behind their houses in little workrooms or in their attics and basements.
Safa also fails to point out — and I believe this is deliberate on his part — that Science has been weaponized against freedom, free will, and bodily autonomy. The man has come to the defense of Science when it is the citizens he claims he comes in defense of. Does this make him a double-dealing little NGO rep?
Has Mr. Safa forgotten?
Or, Mr. Safa, have you forgotten about the almost total worldwide lockdowns where in the name of all that is scientifically holy, all good and decent and smart citizens from infancy to adulthood of all ages in almost every country on Earth were threatened with loss of jobs, housing, children, and parents, and some were jailed or fined, unless they wore a mask and partook of the holy scientific sacrament otherwise known as The Jab?
You, sir, have called millions of people stupid for having a brain and using it to challenge Science — that, by your very own acknowledgement, is ignorant of the unknown — to produce accurate evidence of its premises.
You and the likes of you are hypocrites of the highest order, Mr. Safa, the Devil’s tools. And you’re all — dare I say it — dictators wrapped in shrouds of wool pretending to be the wise men of the ages blessed by the United Nations Seal of Approval.
There are millions, maybe billions, who will no longer comply when their governments overstep their bounds.
