Probably... For me it's more about the things that should be obvious, like burning fossil-fuels will extremely likely lead us in a worse state. But it seems that a big percentage of the western population doesn't want to believe facts and logical reasoning anymore and I think this is a very dangerous thing, as we have seen in 1920-1945.

Yeah it's somewhat funny (if nature wouldn't play a big part this time) that history repeats again and again (Reagan I think was one of the sparks of this disinformation crisis due to promoting this kind of late-stage-capitalism that optimized manipulation). Although we have this vast access to information, but I guess it doesn't help, if you're not able to tell (due to reasons discussed) between facts and lies anymore.
