In America, everyone seems to believe that their opinions are as good as everyone else. I blame religion for this delusion. It teaches people to believe an entire bunch of hoo-ha based on "faith." Faith is belief without proof or adequate evidence. Your uninformed opinion is not the same as a well documented one. We can have differences of opinion based on evidence. But to my mind, your belief that climate change is a hoax is not as good as the scientific concensus that it is happening and caused by humans.
