    Obviously it isn’t “nature” nor is that implied by the article.

    The climate catastrophe is human-made and the people primarily causing it are waging a kind of war against everyone else. Saying that humans are part of nature in that context is very bad faith arguing.

      Yes, that could have been written. That there are some people who are readily throw humanity into the biggest crisis for their own profit.

      The situation is very dire. There is hardly done anything to improve the situation and there are people who misinform and spread doubt. Scientists and activists get ridiculed and attacked.

      That all can be written. I just don’t find the comparison to pre WW2 very matching.

        The article is about the apologists that are maybe conscripts but not the main perpetrators. The kind of people that get upset about climate activists blocking roads and the politicians claiming that they can’t do anything because of such people. The analogy to British apologists and foot-draggers in the lead up to WW2 is not totally unreasonable IMHO.
