I see conspiratorial ideation expressed quite often by my much beloved «skeptics» here at Climate Etc. — so I don't really feel like I need Lewandowsky's evidence to support
such a conclusion, but: (1) I think that while it is often expressed, it is likely that
such expressions of conspiratorial ideation are often only skin deep — and that if you probed more deeply, you'd find that it was mostly back - slapping,
yuk - it - up rhetorical hyperbole of the sort we saw from NW in this thread.
