The scientists hired by big oil who predicted the climate crisis long ago

while I ma be histrionic, the only time I ever encounter any climate science denial is when it is brought up as an insult in a "oh those people who beleive this nonsense" way. I have never encountered it "in the wild", so to speak. Not once.

This is why I am sceptical that it is anything other than a fictional bogeyman to obfuscate rich climate change believers unwillingness to sacrifice luxuries, and poor climate change believers inability to live above absolute crushing poverty [without fossil fuels].

Did you just say you've never heard anyone deny climate change, and then immediately say you believe it's a hoax in the very next sentence?

Wait, I misread that. You think no one is denying climate change, and that the alleged existence of climate change deniers is the hoax?

That's pretty advanced stuff.
