IMO, it seems these people exist to muddy the waters. I spent half a decade munging temperature and precip data from multiple institutions around the world (MPI, fer instance). These datasets suggest an unpleasant future, particularly by mid-century. But I'm supposed to ignore all of it because a) experts are wrong b) sunspots!

The funny thing is that I am actually upset. I am upset at having to waste so much time on being forced to responding. If we don’t respond, then their propaganda gets to carry to online discussion.

It’s tiring, but ultimately, I have kids and am compelled to respond to the bullshit for their sake.

FWIW, I don't have kids. And given what I've seen in the data, don't intend to.
