Ugh, I just had a spirited "debate" with my father about climate change, and I just can't handle his response, I want to post it so I can show what we are competing with.

"Lol very cute, but if you notice the earth has moved closer to the sun. Our universe is constantly moving there for change. We can be dealing with a natural change and not even know about it. It's easy to blame man, but the universe is a whole lot bigger than us. Love you both, Happy Easter"

Just no use.

This is where you disown them and move on with your life. Can’t fix stupid, but you can not reward it with your presence and maybe it’ll reconsider.

Gentle reminder that generally nothing happens when cutting specific people out of your life. If you want to make people change, having a connection helps more than anything else.

Gentle reminder, not everyone is capable of change. Put yourself first sometimes and move on to a less toxic life.

Big if true. But it’s not for me. Don’t let people you don’t live with get away with shit because you share ancestors or a past.

Even if it was a natural change, it's still really bad for humanity and requires immediate mitigation.
