Sunday on NBC’s Meet the Press, stupendously wealthy climate Cassandra and former Vice President Al Gore equated those he smeared as “climate deniers” to the timid, unresponsive police officers in the Uvalde, Texas, school shooting tragedy.
“Climate deniers are really in some ways similar to all of those almost 400 law enforcement officers in Uvalde, Texas, who were waiting outside an unlocked door while the children were being massacred,” Gore stated. “They heard the screams, they heard the gunshots and nobody stepped forward.”
In addition to this false analogy that insults the memory of the murdered children in Uvalde and their grieving families, Gore’s comparison of climate change critics to Holocaust deniers is grotesque and propagandistic.
Gore, who owns a $9 million ocean-view villa in California and who uses enough electricity for six average homes just to heat the outdoor swimming pool at his Nashville residence, regularly takes private jets around the world to lecture those “climate-denying” peasants about reducing their carbon footprint.
