"They don't know what they're marching for," says climate statistician William M. Briggs in a lively interview with Discovery Institute Fellow Ray Bohlin. "They just know that they're unhappy and they want us to know it too."
The April 22 March for Science on the National Mall is ostensibly about, well, science, not least the science of climate change. But as Dr. Briggs points out, everything its organizers have said up till now indicates that science really isn't the point for them and few know much about anything to do with it. The March will be much more about politics, power, status, and an amorphous sense of discontent that has come to define the ideological Left.
The word "diversity" is a stand-in for swirling sources of irritation that can never be assuaged. The March seems more like a planned, collective temper tantrum than anything else...
