They're largely led along by their paranoid biases, as much on pandemic origins as on other topics.
For example, that's why they fell for an obvious transphobic hoax that suited their prejudices.

Thank you for pointing it out, and for providing an infilled analysis before that pre-print came out.
Hopefully that + uncertainty estimates are enough for inclusion in IPCC AR7.
Does anyone know if @micefearboggis.bsky.social was updated on this?

In retrospect, I should have asked for a comparison relative to 1850-1900 for DCENT or infilled DCENT from @brucettcalvert.bsky.social.
But I don't think ahead. 🤦♂️

It is helpful, thank you. I should have clarified why I asked for 1850-1900. My mistake.
It was to compare to the pre-industrial baseline used in the Paris agreement, as you likely know:
climate.copernicus.eu/climate-indi...
But I think this works.

Sorry to bug you, and feel free to ignore this request if you don't have time.
Is it possible to get a version of this graph where the y-axis is relative to the pre-industrial baselines of 1850-1900?
Likely not since GISTEMP only goes back to 1880?

Contrarians stoking ideologically-motivated bias + conspiracism.

Ebright, Matt Ridley, etc. are also busy peddling transphobia.
Their bigotry so blinded them that they fell for a hoax, along with acting like short-haired cis women who get mastectomies are not women.

After his modeling failed, he used it for India, despite my warnings on that.
Then this happened in India:
"a collapse of healthcare infrastructure"
journals.plos.org/globalpublic...
He's yet to admit error.
Makes me skeptical when I see him model in other fields.

This isn't my field of expertise; immunology is.
But I saw the same modeling pattern from Dr. Lewis.
He used fancy math to say herd immunity thresholds were low + so large waves wouldn't happen.
I said he was wrong.
He didn't listen
