That is pretty much how the mechanics of human consciousness works. We also know we are going to die some day, and that it is most likely not going to be very pleasant leading up to it. But we still manage to block out that knowledge of finality in our daily life.

No, the current climate change situation is unparalleled in human history.

For anybody else in his position it would have been a pretty big deal. But because it is Trump and we know how he is with words (as in not at all), this is “nothing”.

They know they can do that sort of shit because they hold the power. They can blatantly and unconvincingly lie, their followers will regurgitate those lies, but neither of them really believe them. They are just posturing and having fun with words, just like fascists always have done.

Never believe that [fascists] are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The [fascists] have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.

That must be specific to whatever app you are using. It isn’t in the default ones.

You: Defending nazis.

You: Gets whiney when accused of being a nazi.

Where on Earth have you gotten that bizarre idea? It is in their interest to promote engagement, human or not, by any means necessary.

Combined with the trite “Fahrenheit is for humans, celsius is for water”.
