Climate change: is there anything it can’t do? While many lefties believe it will be the end of the world, according to The Washington Post, it will also lead to something even worse: an increase in hate speech.
The Post reported that hotter temperatures will lead to more online hate. Wow, so scary. As if that is the worst result of hot weather. [bold, links added]
Everyone knows hot temperatures contribute to aggression and violence. There is even a classic example that correlation does not imply causation – ice cream sales and murder both increase in the summer.
Why? Not because one causes the other, but because hot temperatures make people crave ice cream as well as become more belligerent.
Leave it to the Left to use means words as their main reason for fearmongering climate change rather than the murder and other violent crimes it could potentially increase.
This is not all though. The Left must have it both ways, which is why they call it climate change rather than global warming.
Brace yourself for this. It is not only hot temperatures that wreak havoc online. Cold temperatures also result in more offensive tweets. Shocking.
Thank goodness for The Washington Post enlightening readers about this. Who knew that extreme weather can cause people to be worse than one another?
If you read the study, you’ll note that the researchers determined what was hate speech online. That’s a major red flag.

WaPo threw its credibility down the toilet
a long time ago
Even before the ” Deep Throat ” lie.
Hey, Wapo. How far you have fallen. Here’s an idea to further your love and reduce your ignorance of the environment… Fact check the process that makes the environment green – photosynthesis. It REQUIRES CO2. Because all life on earth is composed of little carbon sacks of water called cells. The most abundant element in all species is the oxygen from cellular water. The second most abundant is carbon. Together they make up over 80% of our body weight. Photosynthesis converts sunlight energy, CO2, and H2O, with the green pigmented chlorophyll enzyme into high energy molecule sugar and every molecule of the O2 we breathe. Our environment and the first technology agriculture depends entirely on CO2 fed photosynthesis. And we depend on it for the oxygen we breathe and the food we eat. More CO2 has been the best thing for the environment that human beings have ever done. Fact check that.
