How much climate change is man made? I thought that's what the debate is over.

Not all of it, but a significant amount. You can't just dump 2,000 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere and pretend it doesn't have an effect.

The earth is obviously getting warmer. We can see that trend. It's obvious and proven. I am not sure if the scienceTM has proven how much of this is man made. Probably a lot of it, but I suspect much of the debate is over that aspect.

In any case, the reason we see denialism from the far right is because the leftist solutions to climate change are all the same old tired plans, i.e. bag whitey.

No argument there.
