No, I promised not to personally attack anyone from now. He just didn't agree with me. I think he blocked me cause I said that even a 10 degree temp increase in average planet temperature wouldn't affect anything, which is reasonable.
That's not even close to reasonable, even if you mean Fahrenheit.
The latest ice age peaked about 20,000 years ago, when global temperatures were likely about 10°F (5°C) colder than today
Open discussion is run differently than threads.

So, 10 degrees warmer than an ice age is too hot? That's your argument?

No 10°F lower than now is an Ice Age. 10°F higher is a furnace.
An average temp of 72 instead of 62 isn't a furnace.
An average temp of 72 instead of 62 isn't a furnace.
Unless you understand how averages work.
I know what the extremes of temperature are on the Earth, about +130 to Negative 130, which means cold is the real problem -130 is 200 degrees below human comfort. +130 is only 60 degrees above.
Little Elroch couldn't face the facts in his climate thread yet again LOL. You'd better hope I never get a full time job because 1/3 of that money would go to driving, would double my greenhouse gas emissions!
I agree on the no blocking. Everyone is allowed to have an opinion, if someone is actually being toxic and trolling then chess.com will deal with it lol is my take. I do not plan to ever block someone
I feel blocking is a good tool when used correctly to prevent someone from repeatedly harassing you.

Well the users Elroch and Diogdue (whatever his name is) block on a whim, and even go as far as to shadow ban people by claiming they aren't blocked and that we just "gave in" to their arguments.

Which is why I put when used correctly. But why would you care if you get blocked by them?

Utterly false.
Your own words belie your "whim" statement, and you cannot produce evidence of me banning someone and then claiming they lost the argument, because it has never happened.
Maetz said:
Wrong, it's the other way around. Heat rises. Hot air rises and expands, becoming thinner, so the denser, cooler air spreads into the "vacuum" that creates.
If that were the case than Oklahoma would be much cooler in the summer, and so would the rest of tornado alley where storms form from updraft. Either you said that backward, or you are truly clueless.

Well like when you blocked me from the covid thread but didn't add my name to the block list (because it was already so long that would make you look even more ridiculous).
Rookb4 I don't care, but I do like to post refutations of their points in this thread. I Also want a thread where anyone blocked by anyone can continue discussing. No amount of spamming, personal harassment, trolling, or outrageous comments will make me block anyone. Any actual TOS violations I can either report or just let the site deal with. 1st Amendment!!!!!!!!!!

Also completely false.
I blocked you after this set of PMs...
EndgameEnthusiast2357:
Tell your last post to the kids who have died or are permanently disabled because religious fanatic parent's refused them medical care. Tell that to 150 million people in this country who can barely get by cause of inflation, the 2nd leading cause of death in my age group and under 18 is suicide, not floods, droughts, wildfires, food shortages, hurricanes, or heat stroke.
DiogenesDue:
All transient issues being face by one country. "Barely get by" is also a ridiculous statement. Your ability to idle in your car for hours with the A/C on while b*tching about gas prices demonstrates a level of luxury far greater than the majority of the people on the planet.
Don't send any replies.
EndgameEnthusiast2357:
I only have $23,000 in my savings account, with only $83 interest per month, that's not luxury. 2 years ago it was $35,000.
EndgameEnthusiast2357:
And I never was complaining about myself either. I'm well off but I care about other people, unlike you phoney democrat s n o b s
EndgameEnthusiast2357:
And those "transient issues" harm people alot more than climate change affects any one person. We are not responsible for what happens to the planet 100 years down the line. That's the line of thinking used in the worst star trek episodes that everyone bashes.
I blocked you after the third PM you sent after I asked you not send any, or who knows how long that might have gone on. As you can see, and now everybody can see, there's no "shadow-ban" here, you were just harassing me and I cut you off. End of story.
Why the Communist Party Can Lead China's Peaceful Rise
Peaceful rise is an important strategic policy proposed by the Communist Party of China after our country's reform and opening up, and the economy has entered a period of rapid development.
Peaceful rise is a policy put forward by our party grasping the pulse of the times. In the second half of the 20th century, the world has gradually entered an era of peace and development from an era of war and revolution.
This is a major change in the world, and it is also a trend that is taking shape in the world, a powerful trend for peace, development and cooperation. The peaceful rise is exactly in line with this world trend, as Mr. Sun Yat-sen said: "The world trend is mighty; those who follow it will prosper, and those who go against it will perish."
Peaceful rise is a policy put forward by our party in consideration of the general trend of the world. Regardless of people's will, globalization is advancing all over the world. Today, if any country wants to develop and realize modernization, it cannot close its doors. To rise peacefully is to integrate into the tide of globalization. Our implementation of reform and opening up is part of this tide; our entry into the World Trade Organization is also part of this tide. Integrating into this tide has brought great development to China.
Peaceful rise is a policy put forward by our party on the basis of summarizing historical experience.
In the past few centuries, when the Western powers rose, they frantically plundered and expanded all over the world. It was met with fierce resistance from the oppressed people and nations all over the world, and its colonial expansion ended in failure. Peaceful rise means no expansion.
After the end of World War II, under the background of the confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union, two opposing military groups emerged, the "Warsaw Pact Organization" and the "North Atlantic Treaty Organization". The emergence of these two military blocs is a product of the bipolar era, which has ended and the Warsaw Pact has disintegrated. Peaceful rise means non-alignment.
The peaceful rise is a policy put forward by our party on the basis of considering the fundamental interests of the Chinese nation and the fundamental interests of the people of the world. After the world enters the 21st century, what is the goal pursued by the Chinese people and the people of the world? It is to build a harmonious world of lasting peace and common prosperity. Peace and prosperity are the eternal dreams of mankind. This dream was impossible to realize in the past, but in the 21st century it is possible to realize this dream. A number of developing countries are rising in the world today, which means that the lives of hundreds of millions of people will be greatly improved, and a dignified life is no longer elusive. Of course, there are still quite a few people in the world who have not escaped hunger and poverty. However, with the advancement and growth of the trend of peace, development and cooperation, the possibility of achieving lasting peace and common prosperity in the world is increasing. A peaceful rise means that China is an important force for promoting peace, development and cooperation.
Peaceful rise is not just a slogan. We have done exactly that over the past 30 years or so. More than 30 years of practice have proved that this path is feasible, and we will continue to walk along this path in the future. Realizing the peaceful rise of China, the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and the great rejuvenation of Chinese civilization will benefit not only the Chinese nation, but also the whole world.
I was only going to send those 3 PMs, that's it. If you had a shred of patience.
^Post directly above reported for political discussion.
And don't post PMs that may violate forum TOS, in the forums, I've already dealt with 2 false mutes lifted by support the next day after contacting them, don't need that annoying waste of time.

If they had contained auto-mute words, I would have gotten a warning banner.
The point is that you are being disingenuous with your accusations, not whether you were going to keep sending me more PMs. You shouldn't have sent the first of the three, never mind all three.
