Which dictionary did you read that in?
There's nothing uncomfortable for the end of mankind...I'm all for it, it doesn't make your circumstantial "evidence" the "truth" though. -

^ what an extraordinary unsubstantiated claim. Since you didn't bother to back it up with anything, I googled "flash frozen mammoth". Here is the first unsurprising result:
Younger Dryas Myth-Busting: Flash-Frozen Mammoths EditionThe notion of “flash-frozen” mammoths is so wide-spread, that in some circles (particularly Art Bell, Immanuel Velikovsky, Charles Hapgood, Randall Carlson fans) it is considered common knowledge. It is often cited as “evidence” to support claims that a sudden catastrophic event plunged the Earth back into an “ice age,” instantly freezing Mammoths and other megafauna, while they were eating.
Since you don't believe anything you haven't personally verified, can you explain why the research linked above is incorrect and how you instead know for a fact that mammoths really were flash frozen?The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Where did I say it was a "fact"
Thanks for playing...Now think hard about how this relates to your "truths" -
2022-08-26 at 12:34 PM UTCLet me help you...
You guys see how you read something and assumed it was presented as a "truth"
fucking looool. -

The fact is that it's not circumstantial.
If it were, there would be studies showing such.
But you won't ever find any that don't come from some tiny private school
Just like the COVID studies. Most of the 'at home treatments' were published by random schools in Pakistan with single digit authors and small, geographically isolated sample sizes.
You likely have never looked at any kind of study with a critical eye.
Where is YOUR evidence that climate change is not driven by humans?
Oh
you don't have any lol
got it. -

The only people who don't agree are far right wing media pundits in the west and the people that believe them.
FBI, MI6, and other global agencies have discovered it is one of the conspiracies pushed by Russian actors to drive divide in the west.
Everyone else on Earth recognizes humanity is driving climate change.
Notice how NOBODY in this thread has tried to rationalize why any of this would be the case if humanity's role in climate change were in fact a lie?

Denial occurs after we have taken in information and consciously reject it to avoid an uncomfortable truth. William Catton termed this behavior ‘ostrichism’ or the strategy of sticking your head in the figurative sand and expecting an issue to go away or persistent belief nothing will change and refusal to face facts.
A recent theory of mind proposes it may have been central to our development as a species. Ajit Varki and Danny Brower’s “Mind Over Reality Transition” theory provides significant reasoning for our trajectory to date. They suggest we have succeeded as a species due in large part to an evolved denial of reality, but this behavior is now a disadvantage and preventing a majority of us from recognizing and acting on systemic issues such as climate change.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
