There was a time when Americans built dams, not just to harness rivers, but to command nature itself. Now we’re told to fear our own breath. The same political class that once sent men to the moon now insists that cows, gas stoves, and pickup trucks are a civilizational threat. Not because of war. Not because of plague. But because of carbon dioxide — the very gas you exhale.
Welcome to the age of the Climatist.
These are not conservationists. They are not lovers of clean air, nor defenders of natural beauty. The Climatist is a political animal who cloaks control in the language of crisis. He does not plant trees — he plants regulations. He does not ask you to recycle — he commands you to obey.
And like all cultists, he sees apocalypse behind every sunrise.
What Is a Gorism?
Named after Al Gore — the charlatan laureate of the modern climate cult — a Gorism is a deceptive tactic, a kind of sanctified misinformation, used to convert political agendas into sacred truths.
It’s not science. It’s propagandist trickery.
The “Hockey Stick” graph, which conveniently erased the Medieval Warm Period to sell a straight-line apocalypse? That’s a Gorism.
The endlessly parroted “97% consensus,” born of a cherry-picked review of academic abstracts, used to silence any and all dissent? Another Gorism.
The prediction that New York City would be underwater by 2015, or that polar bears would vanish by now? All Gorisms — tools of emotional blackmail, not objective reasoning.
Gorisms operate on fear, fraud, and finality. They’re designed to bypass debate, short-circuit logic, and silence resistance. They serve a singular purpose: to make you believe that your freedom is a threat to the planet, and therefore must be surrendered for the “greater good.”
Just like the apocalyptic cults of old, Climatism relies on terrifying predictions that never materialize, then moves the goalposts and demands more sacrifice. Only instead of robes and Kool-Aid, they wear lanyards and peddle carbon credits.
The Climate Crown Demands Obedience
Here’s the genius — or the devilry — of the climatist scheme: you never voted for this. You never signed on to be taxed for the sun’s activity or regulated for how warm you keep your home. And yet, here it is.
Through executive orders, international treaties, and regulatory mandates, climatists have built a shadow government — one that no Congress can override and no court dares restrain.
The EPA, under its newfound religion liberty, redefined carbon dioxide — again, the very gas every living human exhales — as a pollutant. Not because it poisons the air. Not because it harms human health. But because it offends the models created by climate priests in academia.
Try to opt out. Try to drive the car you want, heat your home affordably, or refuse a smart meter. You’ll find out just how green the iron fist of totalitarianism has become. Fortunately, the Trump Administration has begun to roll back these unscientific claims about CO2, but there is still an army of Climatists to deal with, embedded in nearly every facet of modern life.
Not a Science — a Cult With a Spreadsheet
The Climatist doesn’t want you to think. He wants you to believe — in the rituals, the dogma, the sacred graphs handed down from on high. He offers salvation, but only if you confess your carbon sins and tithe accordingly.
Just like every doomsday cult, he thrives on anxiety. He feeds it. Amplifies it. Monetizes it.
Weather used to be weather. Now every storm is a “climate event.”
Summers used to be hot. Now they’re “unprecedented.”
And if you question the high priests? You’re not just wrong — you’re a “denier.” A heretic.
Climatism is not about protecting the Earth. It’s about building a new theology, one where bureaucrats sit on the throne and the Constitution is just another relic to be recycled.
This Is Not About Climate — It’s About Control
If Climatists truly cared about the Earth, they wouldn’t crush American industry while China builds a new coal plant every week. They wouldn’t ban gas stoves in the suburbs while flying private to climate summits. They wouldn’t demand population control while making exceptions for themselves.
This is not environmentalism. It is neo-feudalism wrapped in a cult of catastrophe.
It’s a war on the middle class disguised as a weather forecast. A global bureaucracy using Gorisms to condition a generation into self-censorship, self-denial, and ultimately, self-subjugation.
What’s at Stake
You are both the carbon they want to reduce and the citizen they want to restrain.
Your truck, your thermostat, your diet, your property — these are now subject to a climate ledger written in by bureaucrats at the UN and rubber-stamped in Davos.
And unless we draw a hard line now — not against nature, but against the political cult exploiting it — then your grandchildren won’t inherit a cooler Earth. They’ll inherit a colder, grayer, poorer America. An America where freedom has been rationed, and truth outlawed by consensus.
The Climatist wants control. The Gorism is his lie.
And Climatism is his religion — a doomsday cult with tax exemptions.
