    It's cold as fuck, then some years it's warm as fuck. 11 years ago, I was in New Orleans and was as freezing cold as I've ever been in my life. They got the same arctic blast this year....it happens.

    So, yes, there is 'climate' change.

    But somehow that's being a denier. And the statistical sampling window is one week now.

    I always find it amusing that you never hear anybody talk about global warming in times likes these

    That’s you ^^^^

    How did I misrepresent what you said?

    And BTW, your last point is the most flawed attempt at thought that you’ve made ...

    How much of a pompous ass do you have to be to think that 45-50% of the country (conservatives) are just flat wrong and there are some decent ones that can admit that they are ...

    Let me give you a life lesson here ... we’re all wrong ... and we’re all wrong OFTEN in life on a day by day basis. If you think you have all the answers and that you’re right on everything ... let’s just say life has a funny way of humbling those that get too far ahead of their skis.

    I'm just glad you split up your post

    It’s called sarcasm

    When heat related events take place (notably hurricanes) ... everybody is really quick to point out the link between the event and temperature

    Yet when really abnormal events swing the other way there’s never a recognition that things swing the other way as well

    My point is that what bothers me most about climate change advocates is that they cherry pick events to their narrative ... it’s off putting

    You want to show evidence that the effects of climate change results in greater volatility in weather ... I’m listening

    You want to talk about observable data that we need to address ... I’m open to talking about how that is done

    But I will always be critical of those that selectively use data to advance a pre-determined conclusion
    I think it’s odd that you said you were being sarcastic but you then spent the next few sentences arguing for the exact point that you were saying sarcastically.

    You think cold weather disproves climate change.

    You don’t understand the difference between weather and climate.

    And the cold weather events to get addressed. Constantly.

    Again ... out of context

    Everything about more volatile extremes in climate makes complete sense to me. I have never been one to not only embrace the direction of clean/green energy but recognize that there are elements of climate change that is definitely more controllable than what we’ve historically done.

    Where I pause with caution is making sure that as we transition we make sure we don’t let things slip through the cracks and go “oops” after the fact ... which is what is happening in Texas

    And let’s be clear, what’s happening in Texas looks and feels like gross negligence in terms of protecting infrastructure in case of these types of events.

    The reason I say I’m being sarcastic is because I’m not seeing the same level of vigilance about claiming this vortex is indicative proof of global warming as when warm weather events happen. I suspect that that’s because it’s easier to draw connections to warning to warming events. The reality is people need to understand it goes both ways ... which was really my point (likely poorly made)

    I think this is a good example of how if you want to actually have a conversation ... have one and engage. But if your path is to take something out of context and put someone out on blast, that’s just the wrong way to go about doing things.

    And @TheKobeStopper apologies for using “Bitch” in the thread title ...

    I was pretty pissed in the moment (still not happy) about you taking things out of context and reacting on a different medium (which you shouldn’t do) and reacted emotionally (which I try to avoid)

    Please accept my sincere apologies

    There’s always been a lot of twisters in this community. I’m sorry it had to happen yesterday to you too.

    Don’t be a twister.

    Arguing with an fool until they drag you down to their level is a waste of tim.

    I prefer to just skip right to it and call him a fool immediately.

    Your apology is so Beta. Was it sarcasm? Why do you care what that dude thinks? It’s entertaining pushing these dunces away from reality.

    Zero BidenBros to be found.

    Regardless of whether I agree with someone or not, calling them a bitch isn’t the path that I want to go down. Hence the apology.

    I can’t expect others to act in a more civilized manner if I don’t take my own advice right? And the least that I can do if I make a mistake is to own it.

    Wait what? I think the primary term has changed from “global warming” to “climate change” for this exact reason. These extreme weather events aren’t always just warm weather events. And I think climate change activists are using this cold snap as evidence for their agenda, not dismissing it and being quiet about it.

    I think the bigger issue is that people just can’t grasp the concept of small sample sizes. Just because the average temp is increasing over time doesn’t mean we can’t still have extreme cold snaps like this occasionally as well.

    Yes, they changed it to climate change so what ever random event that has zero to do with carbon emissions can be blamed on it. Pure crap

    I didn’t intentionally take it out of context. You must know the guys here would 100% make that argument. I went with it because it stood out to me, like god damn even Tequilla believes this shit. But I was wrong, so sorry I called you a dumb fuck.

    I don’t really get the problem with taking things to another medium part but I won’t do it to you since you so strenuously object to it.
