If he supported his "globalist paymasters" and quickly left the scene he would be a "merely stupid and ignorant" tool. He has chosen to continue with the lies, the greater deception, which makes him "dishonest", and not only complicit but a major player in the climate change scam as it has evolved over the decades. He's a crook who is protected by the wealthy and powerful global elites.

He is a poor to mediocre scientist who gained his position by telling his globalist paymasters what they wanted to hear to justify their genocidal plans. I don't think he is dishonest, merely stupid and ignorant.
