  Right, but they're not. Because as stated, the reason we're in this situation is because we've let obvious falsehoods masquerade as legitimate opinions when those making the claims don't even believe them. You think the petroleum industry actually believes climate change is a hoax? Of course not. That doesn't stop the right from being ideologically opposed to clean air. The problem here is people such as yourself, and other's, are far too forgiving. You're attributing more good will then you have any right to. These people are lying, they know they're lying, and they're doing it to make a quick buck. If we can't even acknowledge the situation we're in, then we have no hope of fixing it.
