What is geoscience?
Geoscience (also called Earth Science) is the study of Earth. Geoscience includes so much more than rocks and volcanoes, it studies the processes that form and shape Earth's surface, the natural resources we use, and how water and ecosystems are interconnected. Geoscience uses tools and techniques from other science fields as well, such as chemistry, physics, biology, and math! Read more...

I don't see how this is biased. Showing that the Earth did warm up over time before major human climate change started would be, very weakly, supporting that climate change isn't real. If they wanted to be biased they would start at a warm point, and when the Earth is cooling down they'd be like "see! Earth cools naturally, so it must get warm because of climate change!"
To make my stance crystal clear, I believe in and am deeply concerned by climate change
You explained how YOU think it's biased, and you're still wrong. We should be scared shirtless about climate change right now. Instead, you're pointing out incorrectly how this is biased.
It is objectively biased for the reason stated. Being intentionally dense about that fact to push a certain narrative is not a good look.
Except it isn't biased. It showed how warming slowly happened over a roughly 20,000 year period. Someone even gave you an example of something that would be biased and misleading and you just said no.
Always appreciate being personally insulted. Notice, I never called you a moron, or stupid, or anything remotely close. The fact that you resorted to calling me names says more about you than it does me.
You know what, you're right. My bad.
Now, go tell the same thing to everyone else insulting me in this thread who aren't even trying to provide a counterpoint.
That's not the way this works. You insulted me. If you want to respond to the people calling names, that's on you. I hope you're not offended.
I didn't expect you to do anything, just pointing out the unhinged hate train against my wrongthink.
Hey pal, you just blow in from stupid town?
