Ask a question, find a problem, question the process...you're attacked, you're threatened and your career is over...if not your life.

Sounds like the climate warming tactics? If they were on the up and up...why would they resort to gorilla tactics?
They have no idea how it effects us because they've never checked, watched or I suggest...cared.

Are they moral or immoral in their actions in the Ayn Rand world.

    Freak snow, ice and flood and sudden freeze events threatens our food supply...we've already lost many crops this year in china, India, Asia, Australia, South America, Europe and some in the States also and we've are just barely on the door step of the grand solar minimum. see: adapt 2030 on youtube...this guy travels the world trading in seed crops.

    Homonyms are nasty. You're- you are attacked, you're threatened and yes your (2nd personal possessive pronoun) career and life.

    "Companies like Monsanto use gangster tactics to go after scientists who publish studies calling the safety of GMOs in to question."

    Who cares what happens with the climate really. Most of us will be dead anyway by the time their dire predictions would come true. In the meantime there are a lot of current issues and problems that need careful attention.

    "I've just completed Mike's Nature trick...to hide the decline." Phil Jones, Director, Climatic Research Unit, University of East Anglia, Norwich, England, UK, couldn't have made it any clearer. Why speak of hiding a decline in the absence of a meaningful decline to hide?

    And why did Kevin Trenberth call it a "travesty" that he and his colleagues couldn't show a warming trend? Did he even know what that word travesty means? If he did, he'd soon realize that if anyone is making a travesty--a grotesque burlesque--of scientific inquiry, it's he, Phil Jones, and the rest of that rogues' gallery.

    Lowest common denominator...beyond that it is hit or miss, a shot in the dark. You can see that in old testament history, in the Greek and Roman Civilizations... and today? We need not say more...

    Any force fed opinion to be accepted or else is an immoral initiation of force overriding one's rational judgement.

    The difference between having and conscience and not having a conscience...My conclusion here and every other discussion is: "That is the only true division in society."

    Since they are creators. providing meaningful data and analysis to support the predetermined discussions, I suggest they are moral from the POV of their customers.. What does it matter that any data they obtain from the world around them is dropped, massaged or just swept under the proverbial rug if it doesn't fit the narrative.
    From the POV of the critical thinker and true scientist, they most likely are not moral and are at best Amoral.
