@s8n @freemo some of us have grown less responsive on issues that have become highly politicized, reliably wrong in their predictions, and condescended to that we wouldn't understand it and should just whatever experts say.

i'm sure there are hosts of ecological issues abound but the ones i do understand we do basically nothing about and we're supposed to believe now that carbon is the answer to all of our problems that we are too stupid to be worth talking to about unless it's to be condescended to by an autistic girl being given scripts by adults.

but then i'm more cynical about the future than ignorant of it.

Except it hasnt been "reliably wrong" in fact the average of all the models from 20 years ago about global warming have been far more accurate than we could have hoped for.

@s8n @Pat @trinsec

@freemo they told us there was going to be global freezing, then it became global warming, then it just became "climate," simulations that couldn't replicate were used to push news stories, and some of the simulators that predict doom can't even get the temperatures of the tropics right.

part of the texas power failures involved people trusting adjusted climate reports that said it was supposed to be warmer due to climate change and it turned out to be false and it was as cold as texas usually is.

i haven't had the care to goalpost this issue for years.

@s8n @Pat @trinsec
@freemo or more specifically, it was as cold as texas has been in the past.

"They told us"... I already posted what science told us, and it was extraordinarily accurate... now if some other "they" other than the consensus of mainstream scientists told you something else, then so be it. Listen to scientists and not random morons.

What you meant to say is, like always, main stream media did a piss poor job of explaining the scientific consensus... doesnt change the fact that the consensus at the time was correct.
