Green’s true aim is to reverse progress, which of course will make most of us poorer. From Paul Rosenberg at freemansperspective.com:
Those of us who aren’t mainlining TV and Facebook have a fairly clear understanding that the rulership of the West is in trouble: their debts are far beyond payable, while the global East and South are starting to pull away. Having only two primary options – system collapse or reduced standards of living – many are opting for the second. (We’ll leave war out of the discussion for today.)
The great challenge facing rulership, then, is to make their flocks accept being poorer… to get used to being poor. And to make that happen, they’re promoting a new religion, which we can simply call Green.
A primary purpose of the Green faith is for you to welcome lower standards of living.
For example, “sustainable agriculture,” no matter how reverently it’s name is intoned, actually means “lower crop yields and fewer animals per acre.” All the rest is misdirection… “Boob bait for the Bubbas,” as an old senator used to say.
Sustainable agriculture is built around an insane posit: That bureaucrats, a thousand miles away and with zero experience, know how to use specific pieces of land better than farmers and ranchers who’ve been working them all their lives. It is, as an old saying goes, so ridiculous that only an intellectual could believe it.
At last we are all equal in sandals made from old tires roasting rat kebabs by the organic peoples burn barrel cafe with fresh dumpster finds after a shootout over them.
Keep a BioSuit and Giger counter on hand, you’ll have to pick them up on the black market but you can’t wear the suit 24-7 and who knows when it will come.
What a golden progressive utopia, what an indispensable improvement that we just couldn’t do without. (s/)
Yes we can!
To be or not to be?
