I used to think that when global warming truly began to bite, deniers would face reality & we could act. Now I think it's more likely it will lead to a kind of fascism that will respond to global warming by, like, executing everyone who says global warming is real.

Remarkable how people treat election victories as if they amount to the settlement of a political argument on the merits. Particularly marked in the case of net zero, as if the planet is just going to shrug and say, "well, that's that then, I'm going to stop getting hotter".
