-——The point is-——
I would argue the point is much different. The point is all those spidery pipelines must be curtailed. The point is to decrease or eliminate all the pipelines to eliminate the flow of oil. The point is renewable energy must prevail over oil.
The point is that the addition of one more large crude oil pipeline adds to the problem and exacerbates the energy related pollution rather than reduce it.
Of course, that is not my point. That is the point of the envirowackos at the Sierra club who are bent on destroying America as it exists and transforming it to some utopian pristineness of some prior eon.
My point is that we must go on offense and destroy or cripple the Sierra club and prevent their meddling in the very life of the country. That will not happen because we lack the will
“My point is that we must go on offense and destroy or cripple the Sierra club and prevent their meddling in the very life of the country.”
I agree with you. I have several well-meaning relatives who belong to the Sierra Club, Save the Whales, Help Baby Seals, the list goes on. The propaganda for these groups is soul-touching. It’s beautiful. And for just cents per day you can feel good about yourself. These aren’t dumb people. They have no idea what the real agenda is. If they did they’d probably support it at some level. After all, who isn’t for clean air? But their type of critical reasoning can be summed up in the bumper sticker I saw on the back of a Subaru. “You can’t have peace if you’re preparing for war.”
There is no way to cripple the Sierra club as it would look like you were attacking cuddly pandas. The only answer is education and teaching critical reasoning. But we’ve lost the school systems and not enough parents know what reasoning is, let alone critical reasoning.
