'Norm of the North' Unabashedly Spews Eco-Socialist Propaganda to Kids
newsbusters.org ^ | 1/11/2016 | Sam Dorman

Mainstream outlets have used polar bears to show the alleged dangers of climate change, but now this left-wing mascot is making its way to the big screen.

Norm of the North will bring environmentalist propaganda back to theaters with its story of a talking polar bear who rescues his Arctic home from a housing development project "for the one percent."

The film's writers pit eco-friendly protagonists against Mr. Greene: a greedy CEO who calls ordinary people "peasants," says things like "wake up and smell the profits" and "it doesn't matter if I'm corrupt," and hides a caged a polar bear at his company’s headquarters.

In contrast, Norm typifies the environmentalist hero as an outsider battling a corrupt corporation to save his native environment. Norm doesn't fit "the norm" because he can talk to humans, and has the kind of emotional depth that leads him to ask deep, flower-power questions like, "If we're not helping each other, what are we here for?" While Norm can't bring himself to eat a whimpering seal, he is contrasted with bloodthirsty tourists who prod him to devour his prey.

Really nothing new here. How many kids were turned off to hunting after seeing Bambi? "They" have been using cartoons for years to send eco wackos messages to impressionable young minds. Man is ALWAYS bad. Animals are ALWAYS good. And a lot of them are good tasting too.

Bernie Sanders: Climate Change is Directly Related To Terrorism

by Michelle Fields
Nov 14, 2015

"In fact, climate change is directly related to the growth of terrorism," said Sanders.

"And if we do not get our act together and listen to what the scientists say, you're going to see counties all over the world...they're going to be struggling over limited amounts of water, limited amounts of land to grow their crops, and you're going to see all kinds of international conflict."

Sanders said at the second Democratic debate in Iowa that climate change poses the biggest threat to America's national security and to security of the world. ..."

Jane Fonda sounds climate change alarm in Toronto
The Star ^ | July 4, 2015 | Christopher Reynolds

"The climate change problem is the issue of our civilization. It will affect everything about our lives if we don't do something about it," she [Jane Fonda] says.
___________________________________________________

Here's Hanoi Jane remarking on the agenda that Obama refers to as
(quote) "The fundamental transformation of America":

November 22, 1970 -- During a fund-raising tour for GI deserters, Vietnam Veterans Against the War and the Black Panthers, Jane Fonda is quoted in the Detroit Free Press as telling a University of Michigan audience:

"I would think that if you understood what communism was, you would hope, you would pray on your knees that we would someday become communist," and "The peace proposal of the Viet Cong is the only honorable, just, possible way to achieve peace in Vietnam."
http://www.wintersoldier.com/index.php?topic=Timeline
______________________________________________

Fonda made the following statement at the University of Texas:
"We've got to establish a Socialist economic structure that will limit private profit-oriented businesses. Whether the transition is peaceful depends on the way our present governmental leaders react. We must commit our lives to this transition ...... We should be very proud of our new breed of soldier. It's not organized but it's mutiny, and they have every right." --Karen Elliott Dallas Morning News December 11, 1971

From 1972: "I am not a do-gooder, I am a revolutionary. A revolutionary woman."

No great surprise here...

From RushLimbaugh.com:
Hanoi Jane Endorses Obama
April 3, 2008

REPORTER 1: Jane, who are you voting for?

REPORTER 2: Who gets your vote?

FONDA: Obama.

REPORTER 2: Oh, my God. Heaven help us all.

RUSH: The reporter for TMZ said, "Oh, God. Heaven help us all." Obviously the reporter is an Obama supporter.

"The environment is suffering damage that could be irreversible - global warming, the greenhouse effect, the melting of the polar ice caps, the rising sea level, hurricanes - with terrible social occurrences that will shake life on this planet."

"I believe this idea has a strong connection with reality. I don't think we have much time. Fidel Castro said in one of his speeches I read not so long ago, 'tomorrow could be too late, let's do now what we need to do'."

"I believe it is time that we take up with courage and clarity a political, social, collective and ideological offensive across the world - a real offensive that permits us to move progressively, over the next years, the next decades, leaving behind the perverse, destructive, destroyer, capitalist model and go forward in constructing the socialist model to avoid barbarism and beyond that the annihilation of life on this planet."

-Hugo Chavez, at the 16th World Festival of Youth and Students, held in Caracas on August 8-15, 2005

Bin Laden blasts US for climate change

January 29, 2010

CAIRO - Al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden has called for the world to boycott American goods and the U.S. dollar, blaming the United States and other industrialized countries for global warming, according to a new audiotape released Friday.

In the tape, broadcast in part on Al-Jazeera television, bin Laden warned of the dangers of climate change and says that the way to stop it is to bring "the wheels of the American economy" to a halt.

"Charles Manson, the notorious cult leader, has broken a 20-year silence in an interview from his prison cell to warn the world of an impending apocalypse due to global warming.

[snip]

"Everyone's God and if we don't wake up to that there's going to be no weather because our polar caps are melting because we're doing bad things to the atmosphere," he said.

"The automobiles and fossil fuels are destroying the atmosphere and we won't have air to breathe".

“Dot and the Kangaroo” is another good one where American Pigs are trying to set up a mine or something in Australia. Dot and her animal friends learn about ecovandalism, destruction of property, setting up false front organizations, and how to use explosives to kil the American pigs, saving the forest.

I think many films are pure propaganda. If a producer is presented with the opportunity to get a few million as an investment on the condition that he insert certain ideas, he’ll go for it. Or, they may have to acquiesce to an actor’s demands to insert certain themes.
