I live near a somewhat elite leftist liberal arts college. There is a house down the street that rents to college students during the school year. Although the rest of the neighborhood is exceptionally tidy and well kept, the yard is an absolute disaster and the bushes full of trash.
For a long time I assumed it was the owners who just didn't take care of the place. Then one day they threw a party. A late model Honda parked next to our place. It was covered with militant environmental mantras, carelessly applied. A huge bunch of kids piled out and headed down the street. Several hours later, they returned to the car and dropped six bottles in the parking strip, along with several McDonald's/Burger King/Taco Bell bags.
If it was an isolated incident, I would just ignore it as a product of youthful irresponsibility. But in the 18 years we've lived here, various incarnations of the same event have happened over and over.
In the end, I figured that "saving the earth" isn't something THEY are responsible for, it's something everyone else needs to take care of for them. One more example of how leftists believe that what you say is more important than what you do.
And one more thing...I'm pretty sure half of these kids would be thrilled to participate in any Anarchist event they could find. Protesting the evils of Honda, McDonald's, Burger Kind, Taco Bell and most deliciously ironic, Starbucks.
Sometimes, I wonder.
