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
Becoming??? It has been for almost a decade. Anyone else remember the idiocy of flat-earthers??
The difference is that flat Earth theory people were honestly very few and far between. There were not a whole lot of these people around, but now, it seems like at least a quarter of the population if not more Don’t believe in climate change, because if you look at every election in the USA, it’s damn close. That means about 40 to 48% of the population honestly believes the bullshit that the far-right conservatives are pushing on them. Just look at Florida if you need any example. Banning books like we are in the 1800s, now they took down information that has the words climate change off of the official state websites, which is extremely dangerous after a major storms have decimated entire towns and cities. And people still won’t believe it
There is no difference, flat-earth was the test. It showed that with little effort duping people online is easy because our educational system does not teach critical thinking.
