Skeptic's guide to trolling.

A Skeptics Guide to break, enter and annoy.

A brief guide for climate skeptics who troll and display their ignorance.

1. As an accredited skeptic activist register in every climate change forum.
2. More argy-bargy and bluster, not less. Just push in and make yourself at home. 
3. Never let a bit of science get in the way of your deeply held opinions.
4. Accuse your opponents of alarmism at every opportunity.
5. Better. Accuse them of ad hominen attacks. Latin rules.
6. Use derisive language and cast aspersions often.
7. Gloss over inconvenient facts and round out your figures and findings. Be blunt!
8. Express disgust about researchers scheming for funds and the f******  IPCC.
9. Dismiss peer review science as stacked against the skeptics, or us.
10. Tell all and sundry that you once knew a scientist who didn’t believe in AGW (even if he did work for Gina Rinehart).
11. Sing the praises of Fox news, the Heartland Institue, American Thinker, Rush Limburgh, Steve McIntyre and Richard Linzden both frequently and often.
12. Disregard the preceding tautology as you’ll be using lots of them in the game ahead.
13. Be generous in your wordiness. It’s a great way to sidetrack red-hot issues.
14. Speak learnedly about the uncertainties, and the costs of climate change mitigation.
15. Never disclose your hidden perks, memberships or stock holdings.
16. Never ever disclose your psychiatric assessment or medications
17. Sneer at opponents for living in comfort zones of climate group thinking. None of that in the parallel universe of skepticism WE inhabit. Gasp, it’s hot in here!
18. Never admit defeat or take a backward step. We know where you live.
19. Defend the right of free speech, yours in particular.
20. Always engage in debate with your brain in neutral.
21. Remember logic is for losers and that your opinion rules.
22. Say you have been authorised by President Trump to spread his views about fake news.
