Climate “Communicators” Discover the Best Way to Persuade Voters is to Lie to Them

This is a hilarious X (formerly Twitter) thread on a presentation about “messaging over climate”.
Worst messages tested: electric cars, Green New Deal, frontline communities, ‘Big Oil lied’, climate pollution
Talking about electric cars especially deadly for Democrats. Women in particular frightened of battery running out. (Interesting gendered spin on range anxiety I hadn’t thought about before).
The thread quickly jumps to the best messages ever tested, all of which are outright lies, out of context projections, or fantasies.
