Arlo's "demonizing" made me smile, wonder who demonizes the most?

[Arlo]
Arlo gave a valid, historical example of "environmentalism" acting 
"coercively" to regulate and restrict business practices that led to 
a river being so polluted it caught on fire. How is that 
"demonizing"? Mark said there is no such thing as "reasonable" 
environmentalism, I contend there is, and that this is but one fine example.

[Bo]
But the CO2 doomsayers has now taken over completely and the public 
debate sounds more like a  "Jehovah Witnesses" meeting than the wise people

[Arlo]
Arlo wonders if you read any of his posts, of just skim for areas you 
think you can post some disagreement about? Because if you had read 
his posts, you would see that Arlo holds little sympathy for 
"doomsayers". But he also holds little sympathy for those who blindly 
demonize any and all environmental considerations. Arlo has said 
repeatedly, the truth is somewhere inbetween, but is tired of the 
idiotic Holy War whose only goal is to blindly advance an ideological 
view rather than discuss real concerns (just as with "PC"). As for 
sounding like "Jehovah's Witnesses", those who insist there is a 
global, one-world conspiracy afoot, where "the academy, media, 
government and entertainment" are all anti-liberty, freedom-hating, 
tyrannyists bent on enslaving the world... well, they sound like 
"Jehovah's Witnesses" to me as well...
