You don't have to completely deny global warming to recognise when dubious information appears. Here is some real, incredibly misleading information about global warming.

Seems legit, doesn't it? Things have changed a lot. So clearly, it is real, right?

Well… not quite.

The original post is https://reddit.com/comments/bfs2es. According to the comments of the post, the comments of https://reddit.com/comments/b7rle4, and https://www.christianaslund.com/glacier-retreat, this was in Svalbard, Norway. More relevent to the falshood though, the "2019" photo was apparently taken in summer, while the "1919" was apparently taken in winter. This is clearly not solely the result of the change in seasons, but it could easily make this past change look worse than it really is, if not for, well…

The smoking gun here, is that the last photo was allegadly taken in 2019. If that's the case, however, how could the exact same photo be uploaded in 2018? Apparently, the last photo was actually taken in 2002.

Climate change is obviously real, but sometimes, memes and propaganda about it are not so real.

Societal truth is always the bought, and paid for opinion of the oligarchy. Everyone though, is entitled to, and has one. Some are like orifices more stinky, and many are basically nothing more than regurgitation. It amazes me how so many can prostitute themselves without research; as they want to be included in the group; so peer pressure, and group think is what defines them.

We need to re-hone basics of common sense, critical thinking skills, personal responsibility, and other to regain our standing in this reactionary world.

Is there something up with climate yes, but from there, a lot of lobbying for special interests make moving forward difficult.

feels pretty desperate, resorting to these kind of lies
