Is this the logic here? Organization X received $Y in funding. Organization X in some part denies climate change. Therefore $Y is spent on fighting climate change.
This seems analogous to someone on the right looking at Planned Parenthood's budget $Z and saying that PP spends $Z on abortion.
Am I missing something?
- dylandrop 13y agoWell two things: 1) "Organization X in some part denies climate change" Organization X in _totality_ denies climate change 2) "This seems analogous to someone on the right " The difference (at least in your quote) is that espousing the benefits of abortion is different from actually performing abortion, and no one is claiming that the organizations mentioned are actually burning coal with the $Y in funding.
