I looked him up. He used to be a paid lobbyist for Venezuela.
- ThomPete 8y agoin 2004 when he was against nuclear. There are so much more about him that you haven't included. You can start here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-7DIv3AU1o https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-7DIv3AU1o It's pretty obvious that him being a registered lobbyist means absolutely nothing in this context. But again that's how this whole thing work. Shaming and fingers in ear.
- starbeast 8y agoYou told me to look him up and that he wasn't a lobbyist. So I put his name and lobbyist into google and almost immediately found that he used to get paid by Venezuela as a lobbyist. I have no real idea who this guy is until you said to look him up. And somehow this is my fault?
- ThomPete 8y agoI said that it was absurd to use that as an argument against him when you actually know what he DO not what he did in 2004 which isn't really interesting for what he is doing and writing about today. So again. Show a concrete problem with him being a registered lobbyist otherwise it's just a cheap shot which is why you would have to go back to 2004 when he was against nuclear to find anything related. You can simply google Michael Shellenberger and you will learn who he is today. You can check out this interview https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-7DIv3AU1o https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-7DIv3AU1o as that gives you a pretty good idea of his stance.
