Well, I did it again. Got provoked into responding to a wingnut.
Wingnut sends me this link:

from which I excerpt this for your edification:
Climate Alarmist Calls For Burning Down Skeptics’ Homes
“Let’s start keeping track of them…let’s make them pay”

Writing for Forbes Magazine, climate change alarmist Steve Zwick calls for skeptics of man-made global warming to be tracked, hunted down and have their homes burned to the ground, yet another shocking illustration of how eco-fascism is rife within the environmentalist lobby.
Comparing climate change skeptics to residents in Tennessee who refused to pay a $75 fee, resulting in firemen sitting back and watching their houses burn down, Zwick rants that anyone who actively questions global warming propaganda should face the same treatment.
“We know who the active denialists are – not the people who buy the lies, mind you, but the people who create the lies. Let’s start keeping track of them now, and when the famines come, let’s make them pay. Let’s let their houses burn. Let’s swap their safe land for submerged islands. Let’s force them to bear the cost of rising food prices,” writes Zwick, adding, “They broke the climate. Why should the rest of us have to pay for it?”
As we have profusely documented, as polls show that fewer and fewer Americans are convinced by the pseudo-science behind man-made global warming, promulgated as it is by control freaks like Zwick who care more about money and power than they do the environment, AGW adherents are becoming increasingly authoritarian in their pronouncements.
Even as the science itself disproves their theories – Arctic ice is thickening, polar bears and penguins are thriving, Himalayan glaciers are growing – climate change alarmists are only becoming more aggressive in their attacks against anyone who dares question the global warming mantra.
Earlier month we highlighted Professor Kari Norgaard’s call for climate skeptics to be likened to racists and ‘treated’ for having a mental disorder. In a letter to Barack Obama, Norgaard also called on the President to ignore the will of the people and suspend democracy in order to enforce draconian ecological mandates.

My response:
NONE OF THAT SHIT HAPPENED. Find the original sources. Find the Lovelock quote. Find any direct quotes anywhere other than on psychotic or psychopathic RW hate sites. Post them. Cite them. They don't exist. Hell, I've read most of those people in their original words. This stuff ain't there, and a guy who reads 0.1 book per year isn't likely to be aware of that. Which, of course, is what they count on. The greatest ally of the great RW Disinformation Machine is the abysmal ignorance of their readership, most of whom are limited in the amount of reading they do by the fact that their lips get tired after about 300 words.
