Here I fixed it for you.
The rights Climate change conspiracy:
“The scientific community is suffering from group think when it comes to anthropomorphic climit change. Whether it be to secure grant money, Peer preasure or Publication bias, the scientific community is putting to much stock in unproven climit models that are arbitrary in the data used and the time periods investigated"
Perpetrator:
Normal every day people succumbing to their human nature to seek out acceptance in the community; to publish positive results in peer review journals; to sustain their employment in a highly competitive and politicized industry.
Politicians who use the subject to sway one issue voters.
Logistics:
Go along to get along. Fug the data. Reduce the sample size. Reduce the time scope. Only publish positive results and by pass the negative results. Learn how to game the grant system (hey it'll keep all your friends in the lab employed)
Give a stump speech and smile at the camera.
MOTIVATION:
No motivation required; most of its human nature. If you need a motivation though a.c. accolades and greed work.
Further one's political career.
Pay out:
Grant money, accolades, publications.
The furtherance of one's political career.

Then it should be easy to point out where I’m wrong...
Something you didn’t do..
You just claim I’m wrong and feel like that is “enough said..”
Are you refuting that the right side thinks the vast majority of scientists, media and the government are in on it???
Does the right have a super solid motivation I am unaware of???
Is their some magical way that running a carbon tax scam is more profitable than just foreign g up the presses at a mint on a holiday weekend??
The lefts conspiracy:
“ A handful of big oil companies have hired a handful of scientists and politicians to to “cloud the waters” about climate change. To stop any loss in sales or from increases to regulations...”
The rights Climate change conspiracy:
“Some mysterious illuminati type group who controls 95% of the media, scientists and government is purposefully pushing a fake narrative about climate change so they can better control us”

Is anyone here able to adequately describe the thinking around why climate change ISN'T occurring and why the VAST majority of scientists say it is?
Since the OP and the follow up posts don't seem to adequately encapsulate a solid argument, I am honestly curious if there is a solid argument coming from the deniers.

There is no way more cows are farting than we have cars and factories and such..
Plus metane would just be on top of it...in addition to.
So that isn’t an argument against climate change, but a carbon tax.

The right's actual position, based on my personal views as well as those I have read on this site and in other places, is that there is insufficient evidence to blame any warming which may exist on carbon dioxide emissions.
