So, climate change and the holocaust are fabricated.
Anything else you wish to add to your list of things we've been lied to about?

The word fabricated is wrong.
The issue is that we are fed assumptions and conclusions without the supporting facts or evidence and expected to consider them as facts.
I choose not to take the conclusions as gospel unless the facts are presented to me. In neither case facts are present which are independent and not politically biased.
If you believe something without having done the research or finding any facts, it's called faith. I do not support faith of any kind. It's illogical.
The verdict on both is open. That is my view.
Please try to understand this.
Thank you for listening.
This is a very human thing to do, but it has nothing to do with science or facts. The science is, of course, 100% in favor of climate change:

I am neither a Republican voter nor a US citizen. In fact I'm sitting here at home in London in the UK staring at the Thames out of my front window.
I do not choose a team. I have no political allegiance. I do not vote as I do not wish to be responsible for the person I voted in. I try to be a rational independent human and do not align to a stereotype well. A close stereotype is secular humanist.
I suggest you do some research on "accepted norms" and how it applies to climatology plus how conflicting views with theories and data are thrown out without being considered.
So you must necessarily not accept anything without having obtained the raw data, formed a hypothesis, processed the data, and formed a conclusion, by yourself.
Or are you just selective in the facts you choose to accept without personal research and verification and the ones you don't.
Ludicrous hypocrisy.
I do not accept memes and ideas without supporting evidence.
Please provide me with some examples and I will guide you through my thought processes if you do not understand my point.
I suggest that your point is that critical thinking is wrong?
It's also interesting that you would categorise the holocaust as a meme or an idea, but I think that pretty much sums up the way your own personal biases affect your thinking process.
You are selective in what you have chosen to accept as fact too. You can't get out of that argument on a moral high ground as there isn't one.
You and me are alike, but are exposed to different memes.
