2/ Watch my Debbie Downers tell me that Brown is just *saying* he raised a ton of money to pander to voters. 🙄

I must say, after the nonsense on the Hell Site, I block a lot more.
I don't expect people to agree with me on everything, but if they start pissing on parade I just don't have the patience for it anymore. I am old, achy and cranky these days...

Hard agree.

I teach this as a basic principle in climate communication: Doomism is the new Denialism.

Why? Because denialism told you that action is pointless because there isn't a problem while doomism tells you that action is pointless because all is lost anyway. The "action is pointless" is the common denominator - and very often the point.
