Oh yeah. German nature worship coincided exactly with the Nazi rise.
Vegetarianism, animal rights etc...
The nazists of yesteryear were indistinguishable from today’s socialists, including all the history of the democrats.
And Lindbergh probably was involved in the kidnapping of his own baby. Very nasty stuff.
Thank you for the post, Olympiad Fisherman. Pinging the Agenda 21 interest group.
This is a stunning and not-well-known facet of the roots of modern environmentalism, “sustainability,” and ultimately what we are now fighting as Agenda 21 being foisted on us by the UN.

If anyone wants to be on or off the Agenda 21 ping list, please notify me by Freepmail. It is a relatively low volume list in which we have been exploring the UN Agenda21 and related topics. We have collected our studies with threads, links, and discussions on the Agenda 21 thread which can be found here:
NEW ACTION THREAD:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2863065/posts
Post 128 of the Action Thread is a summary of the history of Agenda 21, “what they are doing”, “what to do about it” and a good bibliography for further reading.
Your previous posting of the article and comments on Walter Christaller were interesting. No doubt totalitarians love massive social engineering schemes.
This American Thinker article sites a “Green Nazi” who was well known for waste-water and water run-off systems. My only question is - where is the line drawn between useful ideas and projects, and totalitarian schemes?
I always thought it curious how when he was posing for photos he looked just like a Nazi. Rarely smiled, like he was dead emotionally. Even when they gave him a ticker tape parade - no emotion. Hello, is anyone home in there? Reminded me of Himmler. Then you get someone like Lou Gehrig where it’s the exact opposite, it was rare you didn’t see him smiling.
The “Green Movement” BEGAN in Nazi Germany. There was a book “The Greening of America” that made that connection, I THINK. It’s been many, many years since I read up on that. The Nazis were against the industrialization of Germany and blamed that on the Jews. They wanted to return Germany to the idilic country it was before industrialization, pure natural land for their pure Aryan race.

LMAO, I never heard that about Lindberg.
Did he really think his clothing was not bio-degradable?
Lindbergh was a highly complex, and often very contradictory, person.
He wasn’t a Nazi (Hap Arnold praised him for the intelligence he brought back on the German aviation industry from his tours there). His role in the whole “America First” movement was very much overblown. A lot of the animosity towards him was manufactured by a highly vindictive FDR and Harold Ickes, not based on his ideology but how he’d stood up to their efforts to nationalize/militarize the air mail industry, and that after at least 12 Army Air Corps pilots died, per his predictions, he was proven right.
However he was clearly an Aryan supremacist. His writings and beliefs over the years (as well as his wife’s) bear this out. As do the secret children he fathered over the years with at least three German mistresses in order to perpetuate his Aryan line.
German tree worship and animal worship existed long before the NAZI party and continues more in some American communities than others to this day. They talk much about others being lazy while outlawing work, outlawing property rights and perpetrating improper and illegal tax schemes.
