  1. The difference didn't affect global averages, and only minimally affected a specific date range in US averages.

  2. The cause of the discrepancy is not being suppressed or obfuscated.

Global warming is largely BS, and you could make the argument that this bad data was used to push a narrative, but framing this story as intentionally bad data from NASA as part of a conspiracy is not reasonable or helpful.

If 1934 was the hottest year this is all fake. Globe not warming.

1934 was never the hottest year for the globe. Back in 2007, it was close to the hottest year for the lower 48 US states, 1.88% of the globe.

But even in the lower 48, 2012 was more than a degree (F) hotter than either 1934 or 1998..

Globally, the 1934 wasn't especially warm for the time, and a lot cooler than current temperatures.
