Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez A 'Pompous Little Twit,' Per Greenpeace Co-Founder
Inquisitr ^ | 3/2/2019 | Nicholas Morine

Posted on 03/02/2019 4:01:21 PM PST by simpson96

Lively criticism of the Green New Deal also came from a man who now calls himself the “Sensible Environmentalist.” Patrick Moore, co-founder of Greenpeace, left very little to the imagination when he took to Twitter to excoriate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez over her full-throated endorsement of the sweeping plan — one which he says would eventually lead to “mass death.”

Despite Patrick Moore having a relatively modest social media following on Twitter, his acerbic words for Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez drew nearly 7,000 likes in somewhat short order. As IdeaCity details, Moore is no stranger to public controversy and debate, having departed from the organization which he co-founded — Greenpeace — because activists and other sensationalists had, in his view, hijacked the meaning and the motivations behind the environmental and scientific communities.

Upon being informed by a Twitter follower that it was regrettable that “AOC” would have her voice heard to a much greater magnitude than his, Moore replied in equally blunt fashion.

“It won’t be long until she is exposed for the pompous know-nothing she is. Then again, that may work in her favour!!”

Patrick Moore holds a doctorate in ecology and has also made appearances on conservative YouTube show Louder with Crowder.

"Pompous little twit. You don’t have a plan to grow food for 8 billion people without fossil fuels, or get the food into the cities. Horses? If fossil fuels were banned every tree in the world would be cut down for fuel for cooking and heating. You would bring about mass death."

That’s sort of the point. The radical left as embodied by AOC has barely hidden their agenda to eliminate 95% of the world’s population to bring it down to 500 million for their own perfect Marxist dystopian utopia.

She’ll probably “fire back with....” as the media always reports her inane stupid retorts.

She’s nuts and the media loves it.

Her hair, face and spectacles remind me of a grandmother before her time. What a mindless twit.

The conundrum of the left. They can draw no logical conclusions, BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO LOGIC.
Common sense is a stranger, unwelcome and despised. It interferes with feelings so it cannot be tolerated. They will NEVER be able to draw logical conclusions. EVER.
The sooner the sane understand this the sooner we can get things back in order. IF it’s not too late. {sigh}¬

I think this is the guy who got the hell away from the organization he helped co-found because it was taken over by nut jobs.

He even considers sensible forestry as an absolute to save endangered forests-including “rain” forests here in North America.

Here’s an article about how much AOC Green New Deal is going to cost every household $600,000. That’s how much “free stuff” is going to cost each household. http://www.lucianne.com/thread.aspx/?artnum=963327

I heard this guy speak .
He’s very bright and is pro nuclear.
Left Greenpeace when he saw it go a political and non science based direction

Some of the Left think that way, but I think the vast majority of them simply don't realize the consequences of their policies.

I really, REALLY wish that I could get all the American socialists to just live in their own country however they want and just leave the rest of us the hell alone.
