    I remember when conservatives were hooting and hollering about Climate Science Being Wrong, because the predicted “Worst hurricane season on record” wasn’t producing a record number of powerful storms.

    Well… now what? I guess we can fall back to Gaetz and DeSantis blaming Biden for a bad cleanup job. Or go the MTG approach and start talking about HARP and the Jewish Space Lasers.

        oh hey, all those east coasters can sell their worthless flooded houses to the west coast coasters selling their worthless burnt down houses fleeing the fires since no insurers will cover anywhere.

      Well… now what?

      Years went by and Earth-destroying profits continued for all these years, again.
      The goal was well defined, misinformation carefully funded, the results what they hoped for.

      They will probably say “it’s just a hurricane, doesn’t prove anything”

        Climate deniers can never be dissuaded from their idiot beliefs by science, because they are already ignoring science to these beliefs in the first place.

          I’ve always liked the phrasing “You can’t reason someone out of a position they didn’t reason themselves into”.

      Didn’t you know those space lasers heated up the atmosphere just over Republican counties, to maximize the damage there?

        I would simply not live in a majority GOP county. Seems like they were victims of a personal choice.
