Celebrities actually do have influence, horrifying as that is.

  And I would argue that it's hard to overstate the harm of global warming, so a few ignorant celebrities being incorrect against the mountains of well fund misinformation is not doing more harm than good. They are wrong on the scientifically correct side of the issue, and that matters. They are unlikely to cause harm to anyone, like climate change denier or Jenny McCarthy on vaccines.

    And then people like yourself scream and rage when you see a result like Boris Johnston being elected and wonder why anyone would vote for such a "liar". When you are at the point of openly arguing with people that as long as "fact" supports the right cause, truth be damned, how on earth can you blame people for not trusting you? The worst part is that people like yourself are too blind to see that the only people who buy into these bullshit overstatements are already on your side, your just perpetuating your own doom.
