The article is claiming that there is now a well-understood mechanism which can mask global warming in the short-term and that this mechanism has always been in place. Their conclusion is that global warming is thus EVEN WORSE than they said before this and we're really in for it when the short-term effects disappear and this much higher warming appears.

There is absolutely nothing that can happen in our future which won't support their justification for removing all of our freedoms.

None of this negates the fact that so-called greenhouse global warming predicts that the upper atmosphere over the equator must heat up. It isn't heating up. That means that there is NO greenhouse effect.

The hornswoggling side of this is that it isn’t subject to testability. Give us the most cockamamie scientific theory you want, and the science of old would accept it, but only if it was good science — we could reproduce it with observations if not live in the field.

Someone should put a memorial stone up for science. We remember it so fondly.
