You have to laugh … I remember Glastonbury, up to my knees in mud - it’s all part of the fun. Having said that, it’s unlikely turn into a survival situation in a field in Somerset, so not really that comparable …

        A climate change denier doesn’t understand that climate and weather are not the same thing. My original reply was responding to the comment that said it was ironic that there were climate protests, and then it rained a lot, which is a climate denier thing to say. So I was challenging that.

        They’re not denying it.

        They’re stupid and definitely made it seem like they were, but they weren’t.

          How do you thread the needle between “stupid statement that sounds like denial but isn’t” and just denial. You have a crystal ball over there?

            He thought you were a climate change denier because climate change deniers often confuse weather with climate. The difference is time scale. Weather is day to day(like the daily temperature and if it rains that day), Climate is longer term (like average annual temperature or how Manny days of rain you get in a year, ect.)

            You could have a bit of charity in your interpretation of someone else’s words. The guy you originally replied to didn’t seem like he was trying to deny anything.

            It’s just stupid how people deny climate change because it can still rain and still get cold.

            This is their comment. If you actually took the requisite 30 seconds it took to look at this persons other comments you would have seen that.

            Doesn’t take a crystal ball to read words on a screen.
