Yes, and the way a chart is displayed can be used to mislead.

A model of a climate system is a better approximation then a wet finger pushed up in the air and a declaration made there is no change occurring.

Actually a model may not be any better than that. Is there a model that can predict the weather reliably?

When models give results that experienced top scientists aren't willing to believe, then the model should be viewed skeptically.

Well blah blah blah. Excuse me, can't you read a chart?

Compurer Climate Models are a joke for predictions. That is not obvious too many stupid humans.

But on reading charts, it's obvious that current warming is well within the natural variations before suggestions that man is causing the current increase of CO2 in the atmosphere.
Far right guess scaling of global temp time line. Actual temps should be far more noisy than any proxy.
