The mistake being made is thinking that the climate change alarmists want to stop climate change and that we can argue the science to show that they are wrong. The climate changers want to destroy the free enterprise system. They must be defeated by preventing them from gaining positions of power and by fighting the concept of communism.
Green was the "new" Red. Now it's the same old Red.
When one properly clusters socialism in all its forms together, there is no validity to the "Left-Right" model, per se. There is a corrupt, anti-capitalist side arrayed against simple liberty, as a globalist side raging against localism.
Those who pretend some "in between" stance are grifters happy to play both sides, and they are many.
The mistake is not attacking the “press” when you lose your job.
Stewardship takes many forms. One of the least effective, and most crushing in its outcome, is forbidding the disturbance in any way, shape, form or manner, because the pristine order that is the virgin world, is not to be exploited.
The minerals, the wealth of animal and plant life in all abundance, and the land, water, and air themselves are there for the greater good of all mankind, to be used judiciously and well for the greatest good for the greatest number.
Stumbling, but in ever improving manner, the lessons of preserving the basic structure of the planet, while extracting the various forms of wealth in a manner that does not destroy more than it builds, have been learned and applied over the years and decades since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution.
But, in the spirit of remorse and shame, where excesses have been applied, there is an overcompensation made, which forbids the further destruction, at the cost of stopping all development altogether, of anything anywhere for any specious reason or emotional attachment.
And this is where we find ourselves, for in the zeal of being a “sustainable” course of action, all development is being stopped, everywhere. And civilization itself stops, reverting to a much more primeval level of anarchy and lawlessness. Not a useful course of action, but more of a purge.
Real sustainability is modifying and correcting the errors of earlier means of extracting, refining, processing and transfer of means toward wealth building, and applying the new-found methods to ever greater efficiency and energy for distribution to all. But the technology of the processes by which this commerce is advanced is allowed to continue to improve, and the opportunities to bring in ever greater numbers of participants in this great network of enterprises are allowed to expand.
Command-and-control regimes have never led to the advancement of humanity. They are basically the most exploitative of means of governance, and inevitably lead to failure and death of civilization wherever they touch.
“The issue is not the issue. The revolution is the issue.”
A small group of billionaires have decided that “climate change” is a weapon to be used to crush the masses.
Life is easy when you know the rules.
