We had pretty stable temperatures from the dawn of civilization (the end of the last ice age) until about 30 years ago.

From 1300 ~ about 1700 there was a "little" ice age that cuased widespread famine and cultural disruption.

Yes, the current temperature shift now is greater but it has been ongoing for a much shorter period of time.

That's worse, not better! https://xkcd.com/1732/

We did not, that's the famously debunked hockey-stick graph claim.

Temperature has varied drastically throughout time. There were Vikings growing barley in Greenland, something completely impossible today. The reason you believe otherwise is because climate doomers lie a lot.
