I’m playing Liberal Buzzword Bingo with this. I’m guessing a full card inside of the first 5 paragraphs. . .

All these smart people should be buying up a crap load of salt to put on their crow when they get old and the earth is still about the same temperature as it is now.

They didn’t even notice that one of Obama’s campaign promises was to keep the sea level from rising and he was able to keep that promise. The problem has already been solved.

This is what passes as the intellect of queers, degenerates, liars, and low IQ minorities. Is there a bottom to their stupidity?

That isn’t a nose she’s wearing, that’s a snout attached to her airway.

The only solution for this imperiled waif is suicide. In her native Canada, a physician will happily and legally help her accomplish it.

Well and truly said. Bottom? No, you just can’t fix stupid. It’s a bottomless pit of ignorance.

Well, she got Trump's appointments right. And she got the Paris Accord withdrawal right. After that, there is not one thing in the rest of the screed that is right or true. Pure ideological pablum. No facts, no critical judgment, nothing. And this student is going to get a degree from Yale some day (admittedly, Yale forestry school--who even knew).

What she detailed is NOT climate change; it’s culture change.

Intersectionality

Intersectionality is a theory which considers that the various aspects of humanity, such as class, race, sexual orientation and gender, do not exist separately from each other, but are complexly interwoven, and that their relationships are essential to an understanding of the human condition. When systems of justice or other entities attempt to look at each aspect in isolation, then misconceptions may occur and essential understandings may be lost. The theory proposes that individuals think of each element or trait of a person as inextricably linked with all of the other elements in order to fully understand one's identity.

You mean the geniuses in the socialist studies departments have finally discovered that each person is a unique INDIVIDUAL with his own set of special circumstances, needs, interests, desires, etc?

Thing is they go a lot further when they suggest that “When systems of justice or other entities attempt to look at each aspect in isolation, then misconceptions may occur and essential understandings may be lost.”

I interpret that as saying that, for example, laws should not be applied equally, that justice should not be blind. In other words a black person committing a crime should perhaps be treated more leniently than a white person committing the same crime, because, you know, slavery.

This turns on its head the very concept of equality under the law and instead takes us straight into “animal farm”, where some animals are more equal than others.

Sadly this is the crap that is being inculcated in our youngs’ heads full of mush.

Climate change isn’t just about the planet. It’s about justice: racial, social, socioeconomic, reproductive, and environmental. It’s about immigration reform, LGBTQIA+ rights, and religious freedom the communist agenda.

‘young climate organizers’

‘interconnectedness of climate change’

Who is encouraging this nonsense? Her writing is pretty much word salad and painful to read.

Disproportionate is their way of saying don't arrest more minorities than their proportion of the population. Don't put more minorities in jail than the percentage of their class in society.

In war today it is measured response, not victory.,
