    I live in America where climate change denial is common. You made a comment about how this has nothing to do with climate change and this is about insurers screwing people out of money. That’s not correct IMO but can you see why I thought you were engaging in denialism?

      It IS about insurers screwing people out of money, because historically they’ve ALWAYS done this. Any places ravaged by disaster they pull out of, raise prices on. This has been a commonality since the advent of insurance agencies.

      This is a very Correlation != Causation argument here. Not denialism.

        No? That’s actually fairly recent. Unless you live in a declared disaster zone you typically could get insurance. Entire states being uninsurable is new. Insurers are pulling out of states like FL and CA because they could not afford to cover the claims when another disaster hit.
