The people who pushed climate change denialism are the same people who pushed evolution denialism, asbestos denialism, tobacco denialism, race realism, etc.

They have the same goal:

Dismantle US Federal regulations & laws that shut down their lies and harassment.

Singal is yet another former friendly acquaintance who lost their mind and/or went to the dark side. People may not remember that before he started asking questions about trans people's right to exist, he was a decent if unremarkable science writer. Used to come on my podcast to talk climate, etc.

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

They are also the same people pushing to make transgender people a scapegoat wedge issue.

So of course recruiting a decent but underpaid science writer & giving him access to rich, powerful, and influential ideologues while promising him that he can be the "reasonable" voice of their movement —

Hear the drum poundin' out of time

Another protester has crossed the line (Hey)

To find the money's on the other side

Can I get another Amen? (Amen)

There's a flag wrapped around a score of men (Hey)

A gag, a plastic bag on a monument
