Incoming White House Climate Team Blames ‘Systemic Racism’ for Climate Change
The Washington Free Beacon ^ | 01/18/21 | Collin Anderson

Posted on 01/22/2021 6:11:40 PM PST by Pining_4_TX

A pair of top incoming White House environmental aides has blamed "systemic racism" as a driver of climate change in an attempt to justify a government-led economic overhaul.

President-elect Joe Biden named progressive policy adviser Maggie Thomas as Office of Domestic Climate Policy chief of staff and climate advocate Cecilia Martinez as "senior director for environmental justice" on Thursday. Both Thomas and Martinez have cited racial inequality as perpetuating climate change, arguing that the Biden administration's environmental policy must be centered on "racial and economic justice."

"Unless intentionally interrupted, systemic racism will continue to be a major obstacle to creating a healthy planet," Martinez said in a 2019 press release touting her "Equitable & Just" climate platform. "The only path forward is to design national climate policies that are centered on justice."

For Thomas and Martinez, such policies require "massive" government spending and the "realignment of public dollars at all levels." Thomas's climate plan demands "trillions" in public investment—not only to "crack down" on oil production and shift away from the nation's "fossil fuel economy" but also to fund welfare programs, including rent and utility relief. Martinez's platform calls for much of the same, including increased government investment into "affordable and quality housing."

Both Obama and Biden own $20 million dollar estates that are oceanside.

So what was that about sea levels rising?

“Climate change” is a tool to take over capital markets and a disinformation weapon against the west.

Opening to borders to millions of people of color all over the world should cure climate change.

Also white people should be banned from buying gasoline.

Louis Farrakhan is going to have to sue the Left for trademark infringement. HE is the one who preaches all the time about White Devils being scientifically created by a wise black scientist to be the embodiment of all evil in the world.

The solution is obvious: Electric power, natural gas & gasoline will be denied to Whites who have damaged our environment. They will die.

Do you really think blacks care about environmental issues? It’s their white masters calling the shots. Pretty smart but the we won’t call them out on it.

It’s no surprise.

A lie built on another lie! Do these Communist scum have any legitimate issues that don’t lie about?

This isn’t a communism issue. Communist nations understand that life depends on energy.

This is a psycho issue. We are run by psychos & nutbars.

China wins.

The systemic racism is at the heart of the core of the Democrat Party. They have made sure there is divisive racism permeating every level of government. Just today, Kamala Harris said that systemic racism is causing clean water issues in California and that the leadership here over the last 20 years has caused it. Did she not know her party has ruled the state? We are being lied to, and steamrolled with propaganda.

Boy. If the purported 'climate change' is the result of 'systemic racism', we are going very deep into ignoramus territory.

(I suspect that a lot of People Of Color™ have benefited greatly from technology, and all of its effluvia...)
