You are correct. Which a entirely the point. Icoming amd outgoing radiation is a fiction with no actual evidence to back it up. You rely on the authority of the scientist, not the science. You cannot heat a warmer object with cooler temperatures. Thermodynamics doesnt work this way. I know your a shtick, but I hope you arent honestly foolish enough to believe people in power who have a huge monetary incentive to lie to you.

Blast an IR heatshield at a 400 degree oven amd see if it gets warmer. Fill the entire oven with co2.
