I think when people are as far down the rabbit hole as oddball you need to leave them to find their bottom, much like an addict until they hit that bottom they can't be turned around.
In the meantime simply don't give him any energy, don't respond, don't engage. You can't debate climate science with someone too stupid to understand the carbon cycle or the implications of the keeling curve, and you can't educate someone so deluded he thinks he knows more than Carl sagan did, simply leave him be to find his own path.
You also can't educate through shame, you'll just get push back and they become more entrenched. You have to be patient and hope they can see that right wingers with no editorial process making millions from them has its own explanation.
the country bumpkins that try to bait me do dis-engage but only until someone like you with a bit of "scientific jargon" pops up to reignite their fuses.
then they explode into another bout of "we`ve got him this time"
they think i`m a political animal that needs taking down so they`ll always come back for more- don`t waste your time on them, they`re in a cult, they see themselves on a mission to eradicate "wrong think"
i`m open to being educated - school me, don`t just link rubbish like Carl Sagan who is a z-list author of tosh and that Mickey Mouse "carbon curve" piffle.
you do know the famous "hockey-stick" graph was debunked ages ago don`t you.
if you think the simpletons in this thread can educate me then fine but first they`ll have to understand that the Earth has vast cycles and that plants absorb co2 meaning the more plants/trees there are the more co2 absorbed.
anyone with half a brain knows we need to stop habitat destruction for quite a few reasons.
talking of money and making millions- who pays the "climate scientists" and would they be out of a job if they didn`t follow the narrative
