@voracitude It's not just climate that she's been so very wrong about, and you being a dick about me calling out her clownery is quite precious.
She's done harm in more than one area, so it's going to take more than one admission for her to make amends.
Starting by clearly stating she's sharing her personal opinions on topics outside her expertise rather than presenting nearly everything she posts as our best current science would be a good start.
I think you’re being a bit too generous. Despite the fact that this particular video was pretty good overall (though the potshot at environmental activists at the end was wholly unnecessary and the opposite of helpful) I didn’t hear any real admission that her past views were mistaken here. If what you say is true, then she needed to own up to that far more clearly than she did.
Although I have only watched a few of her videos in the past before stopping. I found them quite opinionated and misinformed. So I don’t have the full context of what exactly she got wrong previously.
