Global Warming murder fantasy nabs prize as most honest political ad of all time
Pajamas Media ^ | October 1, 2010 | Zombie

Posted on 10/02/2010 5:16:00 AM PDT by Kaslin

“10:10″ is a campaign to get people around the world to lower their carbon consumption by 10% in the year 2010. Global Warming and all that, you see.

It’s quite a large, well-organized movement, funded in part by the British government.

This morning, the 10:10 campaign released “No Pressure,” a much-anticipated video promoting the notion of compliance to the carbon-reduction drive, a video scripted by famed British screenwriter Richard Curtis (Notting Hill, Mr. Bean, etc.) and produced by a professional film crew with top-notch actors.

However…

Within minutes of its unveiling earlier today, “No Pressure” caused such an uproar that it was taken offline while the producers issued an apology.

Luckily, enterprising bloggers saved copies and have been frantically re-uploading them to YouTube, to prevent the video from disappearing down the memory hole.

Why? Because no video has ever provided such a revealing and shocking peek into the mindset of the Global Warming alarmists.

Before I say any more, you absolutely need to see the video itself:

Alternately, you can watch directly on its (often faster-loading) YouTube page: 10:10 mini-movie – No Pressure

In both cases, let the video load fully before watching it, to get the full effect, and make sure to watch it all the way to the end.

Oh, and make sure you’re sitting down, too.

OK, now that you’ve lost your “No Pressure” virginity, what do you think? An effective way to convince people to lower their carbon footprint — or final proof that the Green movement are a bunch of crypto-fascists with violent fantasies of exterminating their opponents, and who use threats to enforce groupthink?

As James Delingpole put it in his column about the video, “Eco-fascism jumps the shark: massive, epic fail!

And just exactly how amusing is it to depict the graphic murder of children who refuse to march in lockstep with the Global Warming cult?

If someone set out to intentionally discredit the Global Warming movement, they couldn’t have made a video more devastating than this one. It’s as if the eco-fascists have an irrepressible urge to expose their unconscious fantasies to those whom they seek to dominate — like a serial killer who sends taunting letters to the media. “When we say ‘No pressure,’ what that really means is, ‘We will kill you if you don’t obey.’ So, don’t worry, NO PRESSURE. Understand? Our finger is hovering over the red button. Really, you are free to think whatever you want. (Wink.) No pressure. Ha ha ha!

Discuss.

Update: In case the above clip is pulled from YouTube, Ed Driscoll has also uploaded a copy of the video to his PJ Express blog, where he places it into context with last year’s increasingly violent environmentally-themed PSAs.

***It is seriously disturbing; or more correctly, created by the mind of someone seriously disturbed.***

Very true, but what about all the people who helped to make it . . . didn’t anyone, including Gillian Anderson, see a bit of a problem with it?

Isn't it interesting? So stupid that any reasonable person thinks it's a hoax. So stupid, on so many levels, that it's inconceivable that sentient human beings were involved in its production. I want to think it's a hoax, but I can't find any evidence to prove it.

What's the ad agency version of, "hold muh beer and watch this?"

One can only hope that it will have the usual disastrous result of any “hold muh beer” stunt!

I thought for sure this just had to be something put together by skeptics to discredit the global warming cult.

Seriously!

I just couldn't believe that this was something the global warmers had produced themselves, or that anyone would think it was the slightest bit funny.

This goes beyond appalling!

No surprise. This is the same society that brought the proposal last week to simply take all wages into Inland Revenue then redistribute what was left after taxes.

Where the brits got such a sick sense of humor I can’t guess.

It is a culture that is conditioned to standing in lines and waiting and doing as told... sick.

Also, please remember this VW ad, and all the outrage it caused.

I do remember it. I thought it was hilarious and a creative and timely way to tout the structural integrity of a vehicle.

Seriously this video was produced by people who support this movement?

Actually, it was. I had the same doubts you express here. Hence, I've read and re-read every article accompanying a posting of this video. All of them state it's the real thing. Equally importanat, I've not seen any disclaimers.

You have to sign into YouTube and verify that you are over 18 to watch this video.

I am not surprised at the level of violent fantasy contained in this video. If anyone has any doubts as to how violent and hateful the left is, one has only to thumb through many of the free “newspapers” distributed in major urban areas, or listen to any Pacifica station. I remember one supposedly satirical song played on KPFA during the first Gulf War; the singer pretended to be George H. W. Bush, singing about how much he loves to kill innocent people and bomb peaceful foreign countries. My close relative who loves KPFA thought the song was just adorable.

The youtube link is behind an agewall ("inappropriate content, sign up to see...").

Ed Driscoll's is not. Click to start the video, let it buffer, then copy the Flash file out of your computer's temp location to a safe place and stash it.

Oh, that one was funny. Until I clicked through, I thought you were referring to the "If Teddy Kennedy had been driving a VW" Beetle ad (early 1970s).

There are dozens of copies of this leftist propaganda fantasy video on Youtube at the moment. It has gone viral there, although distributed across many separate posts, and on the Internet in general. The lefties are trying to shut it down, but it's too late. They have unwittingly unmasked themselves.

What amazes me is that Drudge still hasn't picked this up. This blows away the polar bears falling from the sky or any other evil leftist propaganda drivel released to date.

The video at the pajamasmedia.com web page doesn’t require registration. You only have to register if you go directly to YouTube.

I've been reading/posting to various Youtube copies of this video this morning. The really sick thing is how many algore-worshipers think it's "hilarious."

Yeah, I guess Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Scanners, Halloween and Friday the 13th where all "hilarious" too. Obviously they were all mislabeled as horror movies, when they clearly should have been "comedies." More indication that liberalism is a mental disease.

Remember, in the end, the truly intelligent prevail, and the ignorant who only consider themselves to be the truly intelligent bite it hard. This is just another example of their self destruction. There is nothing shocking, offensive or interesting about this video; just typical ignorance. Keep up the good work dumb dumbs.

Is there any way you can find out exactly what they think is hilarious about this film? I'm really trying to wrap my mind around it.

The production values are way too high for this to be a hoax. This is a $500,000, $1,000,000 level type production. Kleig lights, the whole bit.

For those of you who don't want to wade through YouTube restrictions and the like, I have downloaded the entire clip and put it on my website here.

It's a bit more than 15 MB in size, .MP4 format, and can also be downloaded from this location.

Human life is the cause - the greens should merge with the Muslims and form a giant suicide cult to clean up the planet and get 77 virgins while doing it. /sarc off/
