Cult deprogramming is a tricky business. It is emotional, dangerous, and protracted.
Once indoctrinated, the cult member clings tenaciously to the cult's beliefs--regardless of reality.
Journalists, all Western citizens who have passed through the public school systems in the last 20 years, and nearly all Americans and Westerners who rely on the legacy media for information, are, in effect, Global Warming cult members.
The deprogramming of this cult will be long, emotional and loud. But deprogram them we must.
Let the fun begin.
