Right-Wing Media Is Saying the Wildfire Smoke Is Good, Actually

3 years ago by jmp242 to c/worldnews

Conservatives are doing everything they can to convince Americans the hazardous air quality has nothing to do with climate change

Ok, I can get sort of disagreeing the wildfires are from climate change - that's a couple of logical steps you have to make. But "It's not causing anyone to cough" is plainly ludicrous. It was making me cough when I went outside.

"It doesn't smell bad"? Maybe they have COVID and lost their sense of smell altogether? It certainly smelled bad to me. And if you thought it smelled great - wow. I just don't ever want to be around you if you like those sorts of smells. I can't see it actually working with anyone who's ever been in wildfire smoke before - like you don't need science or education or anything to notice if it makes you cough, or tell something doesn't smell great.

Anyone remember when COVID was "good for you"? How did that turn out for them?
