Environmentalism and Communism; A Match Made in Hell

September 25, 2014 by V the K

In covering the People’s Climate Change March this past week, the MFM were very, very careful to make sure that none of their coverage covered people and groups like this (even though their numbers dominated the marches):

Or this…

One man wants to burn down the houses of those who won’t bow to his agenda saying “All these people have names and addresses. Like, every person fucking us over, we know where they live, and we could go there and burn their houses down. I mean, look, you wanna fucking ruin my environment and ruin my home, I’ll come to your home and ruin yours.”

The real ironic part about the environmentalist embrace of communism is how much environmental devastation was wrought by communists in the last century. To cite but one example, while seventies-era progressives were cheering for the victory of Soviet Communism; Soviet Communism was hunting whales to extinction.

It was one of the fastest decimations of an animal population in world history—and it had happened almost entirely in secret. The Soviet Union was a party to the International Convention for the Regulation of Whaling, a 1946 treaty that limited countries to a set quota of whales each year. By the time a ban on commercial whaling went into effect, in 1986, the Soviets had reported killing a total of 2,710 humpback whales in the Southern Hemisphere. In fact, the country’s fleets had killed nearly 18 times that many, along with thousands of unreported whales of other species. It had been an elaborate and audacious deception: Soviet captains had disguised ships, tampered with scientific data, and misled international authorities for decades. In the estimation of the marine biologists Yulia Ivashchenko, Phillip Clapham, and Robert Brownell, it was “arguably one of the greatest environmental crimes of the 20th century.”

Environmental extremists claim to love whales; but they love state-centric, authoritarianism collectivism even more. Whales can’t get you revenge on people who are happier or more successful than you.

    While US communists have indeed reinvented themselves as climate nazis, a lot of the so-called environmentalists remain their old selves. As a “movement” without commissars & party leaders, they’re disparate & ridiculous. I heard several of them on the radio the other day, all excited with smiles expressing through their voices. Full of delusion.
    I’m all for reducing pollution, which the US has been doing with existing regulations since the 70’s, & nobody wants to wade though litter or choke on pollutants. But the communist climate hysterics want to crash the economy & pull everyone under some sort of climate authority worshiping their earth goddess.

    With the possible exception of the Irish Potato Famine, I can’t off-hand recall a high body-count event that can be directly-blamed on “capitalism”. Yet Socialism’s various malignancies — Fascism, Nazism, Leninism, Stalinism, Maoism, Pol Pot, Ba’athism — count hundreds of MILLIONS in the last 175-years.

    I know it’s an old analogy, but I still love likening environmentalist wackos to watermelons: a thin veneer of green on the outside, but red to the very center.

    Yes, and the green outer layer of the watermelon is pithy and undigestible — while the red insides conceals deadly choking-hazards and leaves you a mess that someone has to clean-up after….

    And among communism’s environmental crimes let’s not forget the murder of the Aral Sea–as that sea’s destruction would now be called had it happened in the West.

    The Aral Sea was one of the largest lakes in the world then, in the ’60’s, the Soviets began diverting VAST amounts of its water for irrigation to grow cotton, reducing the sea to only 10% its former size by the 2000’s. That reduction killed a vibrant fishing industry and helped cause massive pollution which has brought devastating health problems to the local people. What’s more, the diversion of the Aral Sea, and its malignant consequences, was imposed by a predominantly white government in Moscow on a predominantly non-white region, Central Asia. Yet, despite all this the murder of the Aral Sea doesn’t register at all on the brains of the environmentalists.

    Capitalism is killing the planet? America is racist? Tell that to the Central Asians who are dying and whose children are born deformed because of the policies of WHITE SOCIALISTS. Think on that, Robert Kennedy, if you dare.

    If they really cared about the environment they would be for sealing the borders. 3rdworld people have a much larger carbon footprint on welfare in the US than they could possibly have in their homelands.

    The real kicker is global warming day in NYC where the hippies left tons of trash on the streets. At least the ones that just smoke pot and don’t take showers are not coming after my paycheck.

    The reason why environmentalists are statists is the same reason progressives are: They know better than the Great Unwashed, and they have to FORCE them to do the right thing.

    And the obvious rejoinder when their policies don’t work is that Conservatives/Republicans/Non-Socialists didn’t cooperate, and they have to double their policies and make them MORE restrictive.

    The floggings will continue until morale improves.

    And why is it that with very rare exceptions, the environmental movement is so lily-WHITE? Ever since a White woman made dubious claims of the dangers of DDT, which were immortalized in song by another White woman, Joni Mitchell (Big Yellow Taxi). It seems the Sierra Club, WWF, Friends of the Earth, etc. may as well hang “Whites only” signs on the entrances to their offices. Oh, sure occasionally Nat Geo has episodes in the African jungle showing natives saving elephants, rhinos, or the endangered species du-jure, even then being coached by bunny huggers from the US or Europe acting as so many “Great White Fathers”. Let’s get real, when was the last time a Brother saved a whale? Or a Sister saved a polar bear from the supposedly melting ice caps? 0bama? Sure, only because he owes the greenies big time. Hell, I’ve seen more diversity at a NASCAR race.
