Asheville NC and Western NC has been destroyed by hurricane Helene and flooding. People are saying the same boring tired things there and sharing the same misinformation.
This is just ordinary weather which happens all the time.
The only thing we can do is pray.
Climate change isn’t real
This is dangerous to say things like this because it makes people believe that there’s no climate change, and that is ordinary and expected when that’s not even remotely true. It’s leading people to ignorantly become complacent, not contact their government, and when disasters like hurricanes happen, they don’t evacuate because they don’t believe it’ll be serious.
I started commenting on everything telling people that climate change is causing these issues and got the most unhinged glue-sniffer responses ever like
‘this has always been like this’ or ‘liberal snowflake tears’
and the worst ones are always religious.
‘we can’t do anything to save our planet, you need to pray. Send your prayers’
God didn’t create this issue? We are ruining our planet!
Example 1. We now have to surround hospital in Tampa Florida with a literal fucking wall just for ordinary storms

@Kevin R. Sullivan:Hurricanes have nothing to do with climate change
Deranged comments like this are very dangerous and spread false misinformation
The thing with climate change is, like science, it’s true whether you believe it or not. I’ve seen those types of comments as well because I follow some news pages and I honestly don’t even bother engaging. The people who have the time to go on comment sections of news articles like that are never going to be convinced otherwise.
Th evidence is undeniable right now, whether you trust the science or not, the facts are easily observable to the layman.
We have a new summer heat record every year, for at least 10 years.
Hurricanes and severe weather becomes more frequent and more powerdul every year.
