"Well that was quite interesting—Thank you. I appreciate that, terrifically. I’ve always been a skeptic. But not because of the numbers. Because of the time frame of the story. Planets been around a long time. And I’m here for like four seconds. So why are people enamoured of this theory? Why embrace the doom and the human-caused doom stories? What is to be gained? Why are the human-caused doom stories appealing to people? Gotta find coffee and hit the road to Quebec—have a nice weekend." My response below the fold. Environmentalism and global warming/climate change are mass movements not scientific attempts to discover the truth. The scientists have no interest in facts or truth. Like priests in the historical Catholic Church, these scientists and the movement leaders seek to control others so they can gain power. The progressive movement is a neo-religious movement which like the church wants power because it believes that the leaders of the movement know what the masses need and want to make sure they do not stray from the progressive path. Blacks today live on a leftist progressive voting plantation. The quid pro quo is the progressive Democrats provide the black community with dribbles of money; the blacks provide the Democrats with voters. Anytime a black person strays from the path; they will be pilloried and attacked. They are apostate.
Ever notice how religious the progressive movement feels? Have you noticed how often these "atheists" use religious terms and ideas to convey their message and move the masses? The movement is a religion or mass movement; they are two terms for the same thing. The doom and gloom, the apocalypse, the fear mongering is a necessary feature of all mass movements. They need the present to be dystopian, so they can create a future utopian fantasy which the movement leaders can use to focus the attention of the True Believer. If the True Believers attention is focused on the leader they will quickly understand that the leader is a schmuck who is manipulating them. But focused on Utopia, they will not. The mass movement also gives the TB a future goal, something the movement can rally around. The TBs are people in society who hate what and who they are, they hate the self. The movement gives them a community of like others who will treat them as if they are doing "God's" work. They become important; their lives have meaning, they feel ascendant. It is the act of doing "God's" work saving the planet that gives them the moral superiority, and which makes them dangerous. They will do anything to achieve their "godly" goals. Even the most beneficial mass movement, like Christianity, has periods of horror driven by the TB's and rabid adherence. All mass movements can be extremely dangerous, murderous. Almost without exception, rational, atheist mass movements are the most dangerous. Rational/secular mass movements have no underpinning system of morality or ethics, and instead, hew to the "common good," the salvation of the earth, or another such concept. In the presence of unregulated, uncontrolled secular mass movements, the chance of death is high. Communism, socialism, environmentalism, global warming/climate change are all representative of this type of secular mass movement. All of them speak regarding exterminating their opponents, due to their evil nature. When given their head, communism and socialism have proven to be human meat grinders murdering well more than one hundred million people and probably more than 150 million. Mostly, religious mass movements avoid or partially avoid these pitfalls with systems of morality and ethics, although these break down as well and often. So far, only Islam has proven to be a majority violent and destructive religious mass movement. The problem is the moral underpinning of Islam is murder/Jihad. There will be an internal reformation of Islam, or the West will reform Islam. We are tired of the violence and mayhem associated with a religion where more than half the adherents are feral or were never civilized at all. Ultimately, the religious mass movements have proven to be inconsequential in the mass murder venue when compared to the secular. Both are horrific when unleashed, but the religious movements become distracted from murder and refocus on the future utopian goals quite quickly, the secular have little time for the utopian and continue to focus on the manufactured dystopian present and the need to murder the enemy who is perpetuating the dystopian present. As Martin Niemöller (1892–1984) [a prominent Protestant pastor who emerged as an outspoken public foe of Adolf Hitler and spent the last seven years of Nazi rule in concentration camps.] said: "First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Trade Unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me." Martin Niemöller: "First they came for the Socialists..." Eventually, all that is left is the supreme leader, alone. The secular mass movements are that nihilistic. The more time one spends with the progressive left; the more one understands that the base motivations are greed, envy, and hatred. The policies offered by the left are always the same. Take money from someone so that I can give you money. The recipient cannot force another to provide them with money, that is robbery, a crime, but the government can, that is only greed. The more I talk with the locals here, the more they convey their envy of others. They hate that the CEO of GE or Exxon makes the amount they do. They want them to make far less. This reaction is pure unadulterated envy. The amount the individual makes has no bearing or effect on them whatsoever. But they have burning envy, jealousy and desire to force that individual to work for less. These people hate themselves and the fact that they are productively inferior to this man, and want to take him down a notch. Greed, envy, and hatred are the underlying reasons for antisemitism as well. The Jews are incredibly intelligent, diligent, and have grit. They work hard and do good for the community. As a result, people are willing to pay them more than others for the products and services they provide. This income and wealth inequality makes the unproductive and the slacker envious, greedy and willing to take the Jew down a notch. When it becomes apparent that the Jews as a group are far superior to the other groups, this envy and greed turn to bile, anger, and ultimately mass murder. Don't tell the Asians who vote Democrat, but they too will end up on this list since they are very much similar to the Jews in these ways. The progressives will eventually come for them, just ask Pastor Niemoller. One of the ugliest instances of this destructive human behavior was the Soviet Ukrainian Holodomor. The Kulaks were highly productive farmers surrounded by the opposite. The Kulaks ended up owning much of the land, while the unproductive Ukrainians worked for the Kulaks. Food production was quite high for a feudal society. Then the Soviet Russians came and whispered into the ears of the Ukrainians that the Kulaks were using them. The result was the Kulaks were rounded up and sent to Siberia to starve to death. That is horrible, but the Holodomor horror, no, the Ukrainians saved that for themselves. Without the Kulaks, the Ukrainians could not produce as much food, so the Soviet Russian took all of the food. The people, without food, starved and fell into cannibalism. About 10-12 million died. The photos are gruesome. 817947813.jpg 859267888.jpg It's what's for dinner! Mark A.R. Kleiman is the face of the oedipal mother in civic life today More Holodomor articles The reason dystopian doom and gloom appeals is power. The people it appeals to are people who want power over others, and people who hate that others do not behave the way they want. They all clamor for the government to regulate others, so they act the way the TBs demand. This regulation is endlessly restrictive and often ends with mass murder, and if it goes far enough a Holodomor.
