Just when I thought climate-change deniers couldn't get any more stupid or dishonest. It's as if they aren't even trying any more.
Once it was all complicated (and falsifiable, i.e. scientifically legit, if mistaken) arguments about sunspots and the solar wind, or sophisticated theories about clouds acting like Irises causing negative-feedback to regulate the climate. Now they just make up total nonsense and don't even care whether it has any relation to reality. They are getting asymptotically closer to saying what they really mean - "we don't care if huge numbers of people suffer and die, all we care about is money, because we are a right-wing death-cult"

Melting ‘snowflakes’? How climate change became a new front in the right’s culture war | Leo Hickman
The Daily Mail and others have now switched focus to criticising the policy response, says Leo Hickman, editor of Carbon Brief
the Daily Express published an article on Monday by James Whale, who claimed that the reason we should all ignore the “climate-fanatic panic” was because “planets move and we have been getting closer to the sun for thousands of years”.

the Daily Mail published a comment piece by a writer called Stephen Robinson. “Why can’t the Met Office just tell us the weather, instead of spreading alarm and scolding us with doom-laden lectures?” he raged, accusing the UK’s leading centre of climate and meteorological research of being “woke” and “alarmist”.
It turns out that he’s a “speech writer and consultant” for “companies operating in the energy sector”
