I do not have climate change deniers as friends because idiots cannot be my friend.
By now it's pretty obvious what is happening and what probably will happen. The ones unable to understand will inevitably have a hard time and a lower chance of passing on their genes which is fine by me.
Hi I'm an idiot and would like to be your friend
Understanding has nothing to do with a person's chances of survival or their children's chances. The biggest determinants will be wealth/poverty and location. Plenty of ordinary people who understand perfectly well what's going on will suffer and die, while fools who can buy their way to a safer place will survive.
