No, I'm pointing out that RIGHT NOW we're supposed to be having more hurricanes due to climate change, but we're not. If their predictions were correct, I'd take it more seriously. If they didn't have to go back and fudge historical temperature records to make their case, I'd take it more seriously.
I think a citation is required from you here. So one particular aspect hasn't turned out as expected, which will be due to one factor compensating for it locally that hadn't been taking account. Newsflash, this is a complex system so predicting exactly how the different factors interact is always going to be extremely difficult. As someone who works with complex models (AI) I see this in my work everyday. But we can easily show the overall trend. The global temperature is rising and this leads to more energy in the system and a lazier jet stream leading to more extreme weather events.
But you just want to pick on this one example whist ignoring the multitude of other things that are consistent with global warming. Like for example the more extreme weather that we are experiencing in the UK. The reason you are doing this is because you are better at convincing yourself of what you want to believe than you are at thinking critically.
Your wilful ignorance is even more shameful than if you just told us that you were a sociopath that didn't care about how your lifestyle affects anyone else.

OK. You continue being a sheep.
Being a contrarian doesn't make you a critical thinker. It's just another way of being a sheep.

Typical religious binary thinking displayed here. There is no single way to resolve the problem but that doesn't mean to say we should pick the worst outcome.
