Dude.
 
That is the math.
 
Right the fuck there.
 
58 meters
 
I’m a fucking astrophysicist, don’t question my ability to research and do math.
 
Just because it has yet to completely melt doesn’t mean it won’t, and people like you who continue to deny the overwhelmingly proven trend of climate change are the ones who are going to leave a world uninhabitable by our posterity.
 
Science is not a liberal conspiracy

The Antarctic ice sheet covers about 98% of the Antarctic continent and is the largest single mass of ice on Earth. It covers an area of almost 14 million square kilometres (5.4 million square miles) and contains 26.5 million cubic kilometres (6,400,000 cubic miles) of ice. That is, approximately 61 percent of all fresh water on the Earth is held in the Antarctic ice sheet, an amount equivalent to about 58 m of sea-level rise.
 
Hell, even the Greenland ice sheet is 2,850,000 cubic kilometres (684,000 cu mi), voluminous enough to cause a 7.5 meter rise in sea level if it melts.
 
People like you are exactly why climate change is an issue. Look shit up and do research before you speak.

Oh, what, so I should just concede? Throw up my hands and say “Oh, welp, I guess it’s Obama’s fault”?
 
There is a difference between compromising on an issue and defending oneself and one’s political ideology from attack with LOGIC and REASON instead of propaganda.

Do you even read your sources? What Obama did wasn’t a “complete shut down” of immigration from those regions. Besides, even if Obama did exactly what Trump is doing, that doesn’t make Trump innocent nor does it make our criticisms of his plan irrelevant
 
This.
 
Obama didn’t ban people from those countries from traveling to the US, which Drumpf is now doing.
 
Again, you conservatives cease to fail in your propensity to only hear what you want to hear.

If you’re referring to the 2011 Iraqi refugee visa ban, that is wholly different.  
  1. it literally concerned only Iraq  
  2. it wasn’t a travel ban that applied to immigrants and tourists
     
    If you’re referring to anything else,

Statism, as I know it, is the belief that the state should have substantial control over social and economic affairs.
 
I don’t want totalitarianism, I just say that laws and regulations are necessary to keep society from utterly collapsing into a chaotic mess.
 
Tell me I’m not the only one who’s not an anarchist here
