But they are
Even apparent adults do it. Roger Pielke seems like an adult:
Roger Pielke, Jr. has been on the faculty of the University of Colorado since 2001. He is the director of the Sports Governance Center within the Department of Athletics. Roger’s research focuses on science, innovation and politics. In 2011 he began to write and research on the governance of sports organizations, including FIFA and the NCAA. Roger holds degrees in mathematics, public policy and political science, all from the University of Colorado. In 2012 Roger was awarded an honorary doctorate from Linköping University in Sweden and was also awarded the Public Service Award of the Geological Society of America. Roger also received the Eduard Brückner Prize in Munich, Germany in 2006 for outstanding achievement in interdisciplinary climate research. Before joining the faculty of the University of Colorado, from 1993-2001 Roger was a Scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research.
Impressive. Serious. And yet…
Updating: Naif informs us Pilke’s a climate change denier.
PSA: Don’t missex
If your comment here to me is that trans women are really women, then that earns me an immediate mute.
Thanks, GW. I might put that on my Fæcesbork page and see who jumps ship. The first time I declared my allegiance to the gender critical side of the debate, my friend count went down by about six over the next week;
and increased by over a hundred over the next month.
Many people might be scared to speak out, but they’re very happy that someone is doing so.
Pielke Jr. is a climate change denier whose area of expertise is neither climate science nor biology.
Ohhhhhhh is he? I missed that.
Ahhhhh OK, that fits logically with genderwoo (science denial meets science denial), even if not socially (right/left).
Ah, my alma mater, the University of Colorado. CU (and Boulder) have always been fairly squishy-left in political terms (my disparaging way of referring to left-leaning persons who are more concerned with appearances and virtue-signaling than actually effecting useful change in the world), but I’m surprised to hear that someone formerly of NCAR is not only a climate change denier but also a genderwoo fool. NCAR/UCAR were always bastions of real science and critical thinking. It’s sad to hear. That being said, “Scientist” is something of a general job position there, sort of like “Senior Software Engineer” at an IT firm. I doubt that he was doing actual climate research with that resumé.
