Saving the planet has grabbed the imagination of the naïve in the same grip as the old worker's paradise promised by the Bolsheviks.
These two manifestoes share the common elements of absurdity, dogmatic conviction and the predictable dimension that the more their doctrines are proved false, the more their advocates defend them. In the case of Bolshevism, people's courts, midnight executions and propaganda were the instruments of coercion; in the case of man-made global warming, it's the Internet, politicized scientists and a mentally disabled mainstream media.
Disciples of world communism actually believed the workers of the world would unite and rule the planet with wisdom and generosity. Even in the wake of 100 million deaths in the name of communism, most left-leaning devotees supported the principles of the USSR until the regime fell in a rubble from within. The rise and fall of Bolshevism took just over seven deadly decades. If the man-made global warming movement takes that long, more than 100 million could die before it's over, mostly from starvation caused by the end of free market capitalism -- this time on the chopping block for raping Mother Earth and exploiting the proletariat.

I believe the “green movement” is just the latest excuse, the latest product, of the “red movement.” Modern Bolsheviks couldn’t win on one set of issues, because everyone knows the failures and murderous tragedies that occurred in Russia and China, Cuba and Cambodia, so they have set out to take over using the environment as their cover.

GREEN on the outside, RED on the inside.

I say half of the 100 million will die from thirst. Just wait and see what they have planned for Western US and water use!
Read, ‘Unquenchable’. Know what the ‘collectivist’ have in mind.
HA HA!
Beck has already started a crepitation storm when he did the watermellon analogy with a real watermellon on the TV show. Typically, the left uses this analogy to accuse him of being racist.
Nobody brought it up until they did so who are the racists? Kinda like the first one to announce that somebody farted in a crowded elevator.
Racist!
Don’t make me post the fried chicken...
Thanks for t he ping.
The New York Times knows about the 100 Million Deaths - they helped make it happen. And won a prize for it.
