I think we can call the first group SINOs...etc...

And then there are those (plenty of them) for whom "facts" simply don't exist...

Here's hoping, still, on the "2-term" part...he ain't gonna want to go...just wait for the reality faker to come up with a fake crisis of epic proportions...but don't worry SCOTUS will stop him...hmmm...ok, worry...

To paraphrase another saying: "You had me a the title."

Exactly -- nicely put Herb!

And Andy Borowitz.

Love it.

Yeah, OK, I read Borowitz's little screed.
My reaction is, "my aren't you clever".
This is the kind of thing that the author hopes that other liberals quote to insult their opponents in environmental debates. They are cute quotes, but are not even based on pseudo-science.

Absolutely correct to be very wary. When a person starts talking about “your” facts versus “my” facts, you are dealing with a mind who believes in the primacy of consciousness. Such a person has no regard for truth because truth can be whatever the individual wants it to be.

"Objective" means: existence exists. That which exists, is whatever it is, independent of any perceiver. This is the proposition of the Primacy of Existence.

"Subjective" means: existence depends upon a perceiver (consciousness) and does not exist independently. Stated differently, the function of brain (consciousness) is not to perceive what exists but to create existence and existence only exists in the mind of the perceiver. This is the proposition of the Primacy of Consciousness.

Ah, yes. Trying to plug the global warming narrative.

I don't resist facts. I resist lies.

Lies like, "I've just completed Mike's Nature trick...to hide the decline."

Easy enough solution...send all progressive liberal greenies, the UN, Soros, Strong, the EPA and all other 'Global Warming' creatures to Mars. Call it an experiment! For those of you that haven't figured it out, Carbon is not the enemy, It is a life sustaining and planet protecting element in our atmosphere. It is the building block of life. These creatures refuse to look at natures cycles. They refuse to leave the data untouched, un-confounded. They have only a brain and no individual identity of which they only use to blame YOU for what they themselves created. Allow 'Conscious Human Value creators' to make us aware, the help us survive a cold climate shift into a new Maunder Minimum, a weakening magnetic shield and one inwhich our poles are moving at ever increasing rates. These will be the very same value creators they have prevented from solving some of the environmental problems their dysfunctional brains created in the first place. In Other words...step aside humanoid, Let us 'Humans' fix the problem.

You have nailed it. More and more cognitive dissonance is created by the indoctrination in public schools Hours of values clarification and group therapy, where academic should be. Yes, they are being trained to be fact-resistant.

Interesting that he equates this condition to a "defect" in the auditory nerve.
I guess that we are to believe what we are told and not to think about it.

Beautiful phrase. I praise your phrase!

Jan, stealing it now...MWAHAHahahahah!

The title says it all...

The sad part is the fact resistant Humans are Scientists, Politicians, and those who are teaching in places of supposed higher learning.

Borowitz's credibility is in the dumper as he is one of those who are immune to facts. What is interesting is that he attributes his ailment to others who try to cure him. It is a glaring symptom of the disease.

There is a particularly vicious strain of this threat to civilization in the form of scientists who are willing to alter facts to create a pseudofact. i.e global warming data sets and the most recent one I have been unwillingly subjected to - deliberate altering of data sets pertaining to sage grouse habitats in the Intermountain West.

Yes, I will elaborate in a different and upcoming post. It doesn't belong in humor.

Be very wary of anyone who uses the argument, "but those are YOUR facts!" The word "fact" has been redefined to mean the latest propaganda statement from favored sources, and has little to do with what scientists and engineers think of as facts.

Fact resistant-humans is nothing more than a new label for what Festinger discovered and we now know as cognitive dissonance. The most difficult beliefs for people to examine are those beliefs which have been (1) held for a long time; (2) adopted before age of reason; and (3) most often repeated.

LOL! Thanks for my first laugh of the day.
The faces of Joe Biden and that "voters are stupid" Gruber dude just flashed through my head.
Oops, per the article, Gruber is right. Plus who is our two-term POTUS?

Even more interesting, VetteGuy!
