      Pfft who would trust those mercury filled devices. They are obviously filled with government made mercury nano bots used to spy on us, and make us think the temps on the rise. This is so the goverment can TAX us more and take away our right of burning plastics! WAKE UP SHEEPLE.

    Wonderful, after spending years insisting this was never going to happen and was a ‘hoax’, once it has started happening, people like this just insist the news is lying.

      Once things get really bad they’re probably going to find some way to blame “leftists” for everything.

    People on the right in the USA and Canada have also been claiming that “liberals” started the wildfires in order to convince people of the climate change hoax. It’s insane what they will do to avoid uncomfortable reality.

    In Canada the leader of the Conservative Party of Canada, who has a decent chance of being elected PM, even accused Trudeau’s government in Parliament of starting the fires. It’s surprising that didn’t get more media attention. You can hear him shout “started by your government” at 1:02 in this clip:

      Because some places aren’t as hot and people’s baselines shift over time

    This one is so easy to verify it’s a joke. Any fool can go outside and see how hot it is.

      The problem is that it’s not equally hot everywhere and people’s baselines change, so you can get a surprising number of people to go along with this

        “It’s fine here” or “I’ve adapted to the heat here” is very common to see.
