When the earth wasn’t warming enough to fit their bs narrative, they started calling it climate change. Now, no matter what the weather does they can blame it on climate change.

Exactly.
Unfortunately, we have FAR too many people who are either too dumb, too lazy, or both to take the simple next step in the critical thinking process to understand this.
"Climate change" means NEVER having to be wrong

What's new about tornadoes?
The graph up to current times trended down, meaning there's been less major tornadoes as the years go by.

I am so, so tired of politicians thinking they are experts on everything just because they are a politician.
Politicians believe they are experts in weather, climate, taxes and economics, medicine, etc.
One side says "our SUVs are killing the planet!"
One side says "Climate change is fake!"
Quit listening to the politicians. Many scientists have sadly been corrupted, but science is still science.
Look at the historical record. Climates evolve and change. Landmasses shift around. Land is created, Land is lost. Ice sheets grow and shrink.
About the only thing man has done that has had any impact on our planet is build levees on the MS river which prevents the replenishment of wetlands.

So what is next, insurance companies are going to stop writing weather related policies and just cover fires.
If it burns down you get paid, but if it floods or gets blown down call FEMA to cover you.
We already have to do this for floods. This may just be the next way to for some of these sleaze bag companies that write, but pay pennies.

I'm just glad you all agree with each other.

On TWC this morning they were warning about mud slides in northern CA. "No grass on the ground because of forest fires, heavy snow on top of dirt ground, rain to fall on snow covered ground making mud slides very possible" - insinuating climate change as the culprit to all of the above.
I've always heard it just called weather up until 8-10 years ago.

The masses are too stupid to realize that the more development that exists the more likely a tornado will destroy things. 100 years ago tornadoes could rip through some of the same areas but no one lived there or1/10th of the population existed in these locations.
Same with hurricanes. Betsy was as bad as Katrina but the area was far less developed then, there was more coastline because the river had been leveed only 35 years prior not 80 years and you did not have a 24 hour hype cycle.

Do we not continue to break heat records year after year?
This heat is what led to a massive outbreak of tornadoes in December. At some point you people on here will have to give up some ground because these events happen over and over and you have the same response every time.

Orleans Parish had a larger population for Betsy than they did for Katrina. The MS Gulf Coast was pretty built up as well by the mid 60s.
You are right about less coastline for Katrina.
Betsy changed how we thought about hurricanes and protection. We built a lot of protection levees after that system, upgraded how we tracked storms, etc. A lot of research and improvements were because of what we learned after Betsy.
The problem is, we didn't maintain what we built and it degraded to the point of being useless after 40 years.

NASA fully supports evidence towards climate change. Are they a hoax?

I cannot speak to the correlation between climate change and tornadoes, but climate change is happening.
ETA the word change**

they won't let this grift go because it's free money in their pockets.
At some point they will have ignorant people vote themselves into being literal peasants to save the environment in the name of preventing climate change and preventing overconsumption etc. Meanwhile "they" will continue living life even more opulently with even more wealth and power concentrated in their hands.
Enjoy our age of technology, comfort, and leisure that is available to nearly everyone. It was a golden era that's on its way out.
Hell, some people today would literally vote themselves into using only stone age tech if propaganda said it was the only way to stop climate change.

The hoax part, that you of course missed because you lack an education beyond 7th Grade, is the part about attributing infrequent events such as this tornado outbreak to any kind of man-made climate change. It's ignorant, uneducated drivel that only imbeciles like you parrot.
