Liberals Argue that Climate Change Denial is Worse than the Holocaust! - Eagle Rising:
"Yeah. This argument, like most arguments concerning climate change, skates on thin ice (pah-doomp-tsh). It hardly needs to be pointed out that lying about future murders is only conspiracy to commit murder if and only if people are actually murdered. Climate change “deniers” are not attempting to kill anyone, and as far as I know, you can’t prosecute someone on the potential deaths their beliefs might cause. I mean, how arrogant do you have to be? Prosecuting climate change “doubters” now for the presumed impact you are sure they will have in the future is begging the question at the very least.
Furthermore, Holocaust denial nearly always influences future action and behavior. As Santayana famously said, “Those who don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” I would include those who deny history to the group of people who can’t learn from it. Rosenberg’s entire argument—though typically alarmist, arrogant, and demeaning—is also typically fallacious."
