Like all policies out of the left,
the issue isn’t the issue.

For the sheeperal, knowing that they are “good people” for “caring” is enough. It doesn’t require any further analysis once that goal is achieved.

P.J. O’Rourke had liberals figured out a long time ago:

The principle feature of American liberalism is sanctimoniousness. By loudly denouncing all bad things -- war and hunger and date rape -- liberals testify to their own terrific goodness.
More important, they promote themselves to membership in a self-selecting elite of those who care deeply about such things.
It's a kind of natural aristocracy, and the wonderful thing about this aristocracy is that you don't have to be brave, smart, strong or even lucky to join it, you just have to be liberal.

Exactly. You must have read David Horowitz. He has put it best, "The issue with the left [climate change] is never the issue. The issue is always the [socialist] revolution." None of this has anything to do with global warming or climate change or the environment or saving the planet. Don't get me wrong. The vast majority of those at the bottom of the liberal food chain believe this issue is real and is about "fixing" the climate. That is what they have been told, taught and indoctrinated to think. They want to "feel good about themselves" for addressing an issue they think is laudable. That is all that counts...to assuage their guilty feelings, not fixing the climate itself.

But the powers behind the climate change movement, the elitist left, know better. To them the objective has to do with destroying free market capitalism and substituting radical socialism in its place or system change. Simple as that. The climate change movement is just a ruse to cover what their real goals are. In other words, it's all one big head fake.
