The summer before covid I was in a public park campaigning for Bernie. The vast majority of interactions we had were positive. Anyway, some chunky white Gen Xer came up to me while he was sucking down a vanilla ice cream cone and started ranting about how he was a chemist and climate change was fake. I remembered something Bill Nye said once, and asked this guy why Venus was hotter than Mercury, despite Venus being farther from the sun. (Answer: a shitload of C02 in the atmosphere.) The guy could not answer and soon left. The question clearly bothered him a great deal.
Obviously you have to take my word for all of this. I know it's also oozing with liberalism, but I mended many of my evil ways the following summer.
Nowadays that kinda person would insist that there’s no proof that Venus is that hot because “NASA tampered with the numbers” or would just straight up say that Venus is fake
(Also if ur the same as the guy who uploads CTH clips, I was literally listening to the one where they riffed on chud websites while I was typing lol)
