I doubt it's all that unprecedented - the fossil fuel / finance lobby has been attacking basic climate science for decades, even though their own scientists knew about it by 1980: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/exxon-knew-about-climate-change-almost-40-years-ago/ https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/exxon-knew-about-... As the evidence has piled up and the model projections have been proven accurate, their ability to recruit third-party promoters of climate denialism in public has steadily fallen, so they've turned to using social media puppet accounts to orchestrate denialism campaigns.
