When I clicked to read this comic, I was bracing myself for something stupid. This outdid my expectations. Does Payne really think the issue is July compared to January?
Umm okay. Nice to see making up stuff a person said is the Right Wing status quo. Do we remember how surprised Trump was that Puerto Rico was surrounded by water. But hey, lets make fun of winter weather in late March and early April in parts of the country when it was supposed to be Spring season. Yes, Hank, the sky isn’t falling but Mother Earth is indeed telling us “keep screwing with me and I’ll show you long term consequences”.
Hey. In his (what some might refer to, mistakenly, as his) mind, there is no proof that the earth isn’t flat, that the moon isn’t a big wheel of cheese, babies come from storks, or that 74M isn’t more than 81M!
This would be funny if it were an accurate or semi-accurate depiction of the nature of the claims of climate activists and experts. But it isn’t. I’m not a cartoonist, just a reader, but I would advise Mr. Payne that adding more of an element of truth would make his cartoons funnier.
Payne continues to lead the pack in the “Too Payneful to believe” race to the bottom. Though there are a few other contenders who are within scoring range.
If by 60 degrees hotter than january you mean it was 60 degrees in january and now it’s 120 degrees in july.
If you can prove that we aren’t already experiencing the effects of climate change and it’s not going to continue to get worse and threaten human life on this planet, let’s see that proof.
It’s not climate change, it’s gods wrath on humans for being such sh*tty stewards of the planet he gave us. Then again, the right is coming around on Vaccines since it is mostly their voters dying. Maybe they will come around on out climate catastrophes also.
If July temperatures where I live (Minnesota) are only 60 degrees hotter than January, something’s badly wrong. We normally have highs in the 80-90s in July. In January, the highs should be in the teens. But it’s true that apart from some wicked cold snaps, it has on average been warmer here in January, to the point where we’ve had thaws where we lost all of our snow cover before the typical February cold snaps. And that’s very rough on the plants trying to overwinter.
yep, the extreme drought and wild fires in my state are a socialist plot to fake people into believing climate change is real. I’m 66 and have NEVER seen the frequency, level, and depth of natural disasters that have hit the U.S. in the last few years. Unprecedented is the new normal.

Payne just gets stupider.
I guess once you believe Your Messiah is 6’ 3" and not obese, it’s totally east to believe he won the election he lost. By a landslide.

Climate change is a hoax. Covid19 is a hoax. Trump won. I see that you’re going all in on crazy. Good luck with that.

Payne should stick to cars. He would at least seem less stupid.

This cartoon would seem to be the result of Payne doing all his thinking with his patella reflex.

Payne has a highly skewed, distorted and aberrant mentality of low effective intelligence, and he is very proud of that.

Hey Payne, how about you look at Detroit in July 2021 vs July 1951 instead of Jan/Jul the same year.

Stupid Henry Payne again devolves into reductio ad absurdum, which is the world he mostly lives in. #JustPayneStupid.

Henry Payne is an ignoramus. And apparently he doesn’t give a damn about the climate chaos happening all around him.

I guess I’m giving Henry too much credit, I see this as only satire, similar to The Onion. He can’t believe it.

Too bad you won’t be around to see it growing worse and worse. But your children will, and their children. I guess you don’t care about them.
