I guess you could read ysavir's post that way, but I don't see anything in there that implies your reading. All they said was:
> I equally roll them at people that talk about [climate change] happening as if they've done the calculations themselves.
Which I think is a strawman.
- ysavir 10y agoThat quote says it all: I have no disrespect for people that, as the OP did, acknowledge that they are putting their trust and faith in modern science. The people at whom my eyes roll are those that skip over the trust and preach global warming as a gospel. It's the difference between saying "I don't know what's going on, but I trust those that specialize in this field" and saying "Oh, I know what's going on (even though I never touched science since high school)." As I said in the previous post, it comes down to intellectual humility.
- coldpie 10y agoI don't think those people exist in sufficient quantity or have sufficient political power to validly equate to climate science deniers.
