Denial

The Big Point: Scientific facts like gravity, the speed of light, or how long a ball takes to fall are objective truths, they work the same for everyone, everywhere, whether we like it or not.

The 3 types of denial:

Literal Denial

(ignoring evidence), by saying: "That's just not true!"

In the end, denied facts are still facts.

Interpretive Denial

(twisting facts), by saying: "Well, that's just your interpretation"

Just like the propaganda that Palestinians are fine.

Implicatory Denial

(ignoring consequences), by saying: "Even if it's true, I don't have to do anything about it"

Thinking it's not in human hands to fix climate change.
