As I’ve noted, the UK Guardian has gone all in on Hotcoldwetdry, seriously moving from journalism to activism. Like most Cult of Climastrology organizations, they are totally pimping the divestment from oil movement. For example, articles here, here, here, and here. Of course, as in most things Warmist/Progressive, their beliefs set applies to Other People, not themselves. We learn from Bishop Hill, via Barry Woods, of an amusing Guardian podcast
Amanda Michel: You know, there are big questions about asking people to do something that we ourselves have not done.
Aleks Krotoski: What Amanda is talking about is sorting out the Guardian’s own pots of money, their investments.
Amanda Michel: It will seem like hypocrisy.
Alan Rusbridger: We have about £600 million invested at the moment, and I don’t think our fund managers could say exactly how much was invested in fossil fuel. But it is there, we haven’t said that it shouldn’t be, so we have got money invested. And so, if we’re going to be calling on people to divest, people are bound to ask “Well, is that what the Guardian’s going to do?”
