Facebook comments: Well obviously it was taken in the SUMMER 😂🤣😆 Morons global warming is all fear mongering!
Yes Jim. It’s very normal that entire glaciers disappear, regularly in fact, every year. You are so smart, much smarter than all of the scientists who are panicking.
Ummm…. There’s people right here on lemmy saying the same dumb shit about summer. Don’t think for a second that lemmy doesn’t host some of the exact same idiots Facebook does.
Good news is that many instances on Lemmy are less tolerant to alt-right trolls and climate deniers. Best to use that report function so your admins, or even better, their admins, can snipe them.
I guess depending on the instance it’s not necessarily over-using it, as the point is to report content that isn’t up to the instance or community’s standard. On some instance that includes disinfo, on others it doesn’t.
We are all humans, we are all dumb. A smart human isn’t one who knows everything, they’re one who knows what they don’t know and knows who knows that. And, ya know, defers to the people who know about things when they don’t.
The only issue that really matters to me is climate change. Or maybe plastic.
But this is the same as the picture of the statue of liberty that is used to “debunk” sea level rise by showing the level at the same height, despite being taken 100 years apart. Were they taken at the same tide? Same time of year? Is there any other factor at play here?
This is a “shoe is on the other foot” moment, and we should be as skeptical of that which supports our beliefs as we are of that which contradicts it. Maybe especially so because confirmation bias is a hell of a drug.

Good idea. Though I generally don’t like to over-use the report function.

Also, the sunlight suggests it’s summer in the first photo (or at least not winter).

Glaciers don’t change with a full moon.
And I never said they did.
Then what exactly are you implying?
