Who knows more about a given topic:
Thousands of scientists who have devoted their lives and careers to studying natural phenomena,
Or MAGA contrarians who decided to start learning about a subject only after the scientists told them something they didn't want to hear that would require them to change their behavior for the benefit of others?

They're not going to believe something is a serious problem if the solution requires collectively changing our day-to-day behavior.
They don't deny global warming because they have a respectable argument against it; They deny it because recognizing it would require them to change their energy consumption habits.
They don't deny the need for mask mandates because of that either; They deny it because recognizing it would require them to change their behavior to protect the health of others.
