A close cousin of the left’s “everything is racist” narrative has always been “everything is caused by climate change.” So often are things like hurricanes, tornadoes, and fires blamed on climate change that one gets the impression liberals don’t think any of those things existed until only a few decades ago.
In their latest case of jumping the gun, a fire that broke out in Yosemite park last year that destroyed over 100 homes and caused a number of injuries was inevitably blamed on climate change. Below is just a sampling of hundreds of headlines that, without a single shred of evidence, blamed “climate change” for the fire.
Ironically, in this case the fire turned out to allegedly be caused by the exact kind of person who would blame it on climate change.
According to the Washington Free Beacon:
Authorities busted a Democratic donor for allegedly starting a "ginormous inferno" in Yosemite National Park. Democratic politicians had insisted climate change was to blame for the blaze.
The arson suspect has donated $1,775 to Democratic candidates and committees since 2020, government records show, including a $1,000 donation to Tim Ryan's failed U.S. Senate campaign in 2022 and $400 to the Lincoln Project, a disgraced liberal super PAC.
If the past is any indication of the future, to even suggest that liberals will learn anything from this and tone down their rhetoric at all would be laughable.
