Read the three lines right above that quote. Those are the experts.
“It’s propaganda 101,” she said. “Equating people concerned about climate change with Nazis can have long-term impacts on young, impressionable people.

If you want to complain about the toxicity of sensational headlines, I don't think many people would disagree.
