Conservative pundits and right-wing Christian media figures have rejected the scientific consensus that human activity is fueling the warming climate and exacerbating extreme weather events, instead claiming that God controls the weather and attributing natural disasters to “demonic attack,” biblical prophecy, or a supposed sign of the End Times. TikTok influencers and accounts with tens of thousands of followers have also adopted End Times rhetoric to explain natural disasters.
