The elites are struggling to maintain control over the climate change narrative amid pushback from social media

History records that when Johannes Gutenberg used his printing press to produce a copy of the Bible in the 15th century, it was a hinge of history. Printed in Europe using mass-produced metal movable type, Gutenberg’s Bible made information accessible beyond handwritten codices. Hosanna!

But the printing press freaked out the Vatican. Why?

Because it allowed common people to read the Bible without an intermediary, a priest or bishop, censoring the uncomfortable bits. The printing press undermined their absolute authority and left people free to make their own “heretical” conclusions. What they read, in part, sparked the Reformation. And 500 years of war as the Church tried to reinforce its power.

Now, elites controlling the legacy media flow are freaked out because impertinent social media threatens their control over the high religion of climate change. Like the cardinals who tried to stop Gutenberg’s press, the high priests of climate have been outpaced by technology. The formative years of the “crisis” occurred pre-social media sites like Twitter (now X), Facebook, and TikTok. Their fantastical climate modelling and doomsday predictions were made in a sealed world of purchased journalists, cloistered academics, and progressive reporting.
