Trump supporting agnostic anti-theist here.
Your ignorance in introducing politics to this thread is obvious.

He just reposts it because it's some republican meme.

The funny thing is that he reposted an anti trump meme and I doubt he realizes it's anti trump.. Like HOLY ****...

The point is, imagine being a doctor, and your telling your patient they develop cancer if they continue smoking, and they say that your part of some conspiracy to raise money for a cancer hoax.
Sooooo.... because you are a relative of an imbecile that means science does not often get politicized or perverted by various self serving interests?

Only people who have interests are people like Gore. Rip and tear at him all you want. Scientists don’t care about him.

The politicians and MEDIA blame "Man Made Climate Change" which is their easiest scapegoat. Then the politicians are NOT HELD ACCOUNTABLE for their government policy.
Exactly!

Fires are supposed to be a normal part of nature. These fires are awful, but suppressing naturally occurring fires is largely responsible for this current event. Another man-made disaster by getting involved in the natural course of things.

To me it was about mediocre music given notice merely by political message.
MTV picked it up because there werent any good guilt for indians songs in their play list.
