The deniers are largely a product of propaganda and shouldn't be overestimated. The ones spreading the propaganda however, are neither deniers nor disempowered, but they would rather go down with the ship than possibly let go of their current privileges. Their phases "It's not happening", "It's not human made", "Don't be too alarmist, it's not that bad", "Ah, well it's over now", all serve the purpose of doing absolutely nothing.
