The Swiss Army Knife of Climate Change
American Thinker ^ | 30 Dec, 2023 | Mike McDaniel

Posted on 12/30/2023 7:23:41 AM PST by MtnClimber

Remember the good old days when Global Warming was going to doom us all? I’m so old I remember it was the imminent, any day now, new ice age that would popsicle humanity. Good times. Good times. But when the climate computer modeler’s climate computer models all failed to predict, well, anything, and embarrassingly, the globe suddenly refused to warm, and that couldn’t be covered up, our new, universal doom was hastily renamed: Climate Change! It’s the Swiss Army Knife of eco-Armageddon. There is nothing it cannot do, nothing it cannot anticipate, describe or blame. Since it is and causes everything, it has the enormous scientific advantage of being non-falsifiable, which is kind of un-scientific, but CLIMATE CHANGE!

Hot weather? Climate Change. Cold weather? Climate Change. Rain? Climate Change. No rain? Climate Change. Tuesday? Climate Change. Dark out? Climate Change. Full moon? Climate Change. Snow? Climate Change. No snow? Climate Change. Bidenomics? Climate Change. Ooops. No, sorry! That’s not Climate Change, that’s stunning success and salvation. Glad I caught that one. High gas prices? Climate Change—or Putin. Afghanistan pull-out debacle? Stunning success and Climate Change! Supply chain disruptions? Climate Change. Cow flatulence? Climate Change. Breathing? Climate Change. Terrorism? Climate Change. No terrorism? Climate Change. The utter failure of high-speed rail? Climate Change. Donald Trump? Absolutely Climate Change.

See? There is nothing that exists, does not exist, moves, does not move, thinks, acts, or just sits there that is not caused by, or is an existential cause of, Climate Change! The Climate Change crowd have statistics to prove it too, and if they don’t they’ll just make some up, just because CLIMATE CHANGE! John Hinderaker at Powerline explains:

Not long ago, when there was a spike in U.S. wildfires caused mostly, I believe, by lousy forest management practices

I am amazed that most people do not see through the hoax.

Climate change is here, have no doubt
Too much rain, too much drought
Run in circles, scream and shout

It’ll cook your brain and freeze your feet
Too much rain, too much heat

Snow coming soon no relief in sight
Tornados and floods you better run for your life

Climate change is here better hide in fear
They need more money or it gets severe

Too much rain too much drought
Run in circles, scream and shout.

The trick is to make Climate Change work for you.

Old me: I do not do yard work because I’m lazy.
New me: I do not do yard work because of Climate Change.

I now feel better about myself. And my liberal neighbors understand why my yard is so unkempt. They don’t complain anymore.

I think most people see through the hoax, but are afraid to speak out. They’re convinced they’re in the minority thought because the continuous PR about warmageddon makes the it seem like the warmageddon cultists are the majority.

While true that the mantra has changed from "Global Warming" to "Global Climate Change," they're still trying to push the "hottest year on record" crap.

The only way they can do that is to go back to the historical records and 'correct' the temperatures downwards.

But the advantage, which is the point of the article, is that "Global Climate Change" always works. Too hot? GCC. Too cold? GCC. Too wet? GCC. Too dry? GCC.

Yes, they are either woefully misinformed or willfully ignorant, most likely both.

Snow? Climate Change. No snow? Climate Change. Bidenomics? Climate Change. Ooops.

That’s not Climate Change, that’s stunning success and salvation. Glad I caught that one.

Stunning success and Climate Change! Supply chain disruptions? Climate Change. Cow flatulence? Climate Change. Breathing? Climate Change.

Terrorism? Climate Change. No terrorism? Climate Change.

The utter failure of high-speed rail? Climate Change. Donald Trump? Absolutely Climate Change.

How many years do we have left according to AOC?
