That's what really pisses me off about that crowd. Its not that they have a tendency to interpret ambiguous data to support their side (we ALL do that!); its that they continue to do so even when they know they're wrong, just in order to promote their agenda for a little bit longer. They don't even try to solve a problem, they just want to make sure they're the last ones who'll have to deal with it. Look at what's happening in the UK. After getting rid of a truly dreadful PM, floundering around with Brexit, and dealing with Covid, inflation, an energy crisis, a Ukrainian war and general economic malaise, what does the new Tory PM do immediately upon arriving at No. 10? She tries to give the rich a tax cut. You gotta hand it to these guys. At least they're predictable. Yeah, we saw them doing it here on the Zone until we ran them off.

The rightwing bullshit machine is good at picking favorable data points. “Sea ice extent has increased in the last 10 years.”
