-Caveat Lector-
Greenies Want You Dead
by Brad Edmonds
Believe it. There is no other statement that fully explains the collected
behavior and assertions of all the animal rightsers, tree huggers,
and antibiotechnologyniks. You don’t have to be a rightist, either:
Leftists themselves, at least under the influence of sodium pentothal
(don’t ask how I know about that), would agree with me completely
after consideration of the items below.
Item:
Any time a new development in biotechnology is announced, it
is protested. The most common and visible examples involve
Frankenfoods, those horrors (to the -niks; to me they’re miracles) such
as corn that doesn’t require extensive pesticide application. Juxtapose
this with screeches denouncing pesticides. What are we to do? They
don’t want pesticides, they don’t want food that doesn’t require
them… My answer: The greenies don’t want food for humans, at least
not if it involves humans actually doing anything.
Item:
No more greenhouse gases. Juxtapose this with globetrotting
efforts by the greenies to prevent the construction of hydroelectric
dams.
Dams burn nothing; no greenhouse gases. They do result in
the destruction of habitat, causing some species to move over a little,
and a few trees to drown. Note that two major causes of child death in
the third world – lung infection, caused by burning feces and wood in
the home for fuel; and dysentery – are in large part eradicated by
hydroelectric dams because dams provide electricity for the home
and treatable water. What are we to do? My answer: The greenies
want us to stop developing. Let millions of children die horribly – there
may be an endangered spider at stake.
Item:
Greenies of the animals-first variety want no more animal
skins – furs, leather, even wool – used to shield us from the elements or
to adorn us. They prefer "fake furs." I’m reminded by a reader
that fake furs are made of petroleum derivatives. Petroleum derivatives
mean exploring, drilling, and yes, once in a great while, oil spills.
Who was there to denounce the Valdez spill? Mouse huggers,
displaying deceased animals. So for clothing we shouldn’t use animals,
and we shouldn’t imitate animal use; even leather simulations are again
petroleum derivatives. If we follow their advice, we must use only
cotton (not wood, as in paper clothing – remember the tree huggers).
This will require enormous expansion of the cotton industry,
meaning more land exposed to erosion, and demand for biotechnology
to make more cotton from less land. They won’t allow that. What are we
to do? My answer: The greenies want us naked. Benefit: We’ll die
faster, thus need less food and electricity. Hurrah!
There seems to be no end to the self-contradictions of the green left.
There need not be: There is no self-contradiction among them if
we understand that they desire the extinction of humanity.
Yes, I remember reading that one of their spokespersons actually said
he desires mankind’s end, but we don’t need any spokesgreenies’
confirmations: I’m doing them a giant favor by removing the one
dialectical flaw – self-contradiction – that would, as a matter of logical
necessity, invalidate somewhere between half and all of their claims.
They may be young; they may be ignorant; they may be smug,
privileged, bored, even evil. But they have to their inestimable credit a
consistent, principled, unassailable position, given they accept only this:
They are right in everything they say if they admit they desire the
extinction of mankind. This means you.

It is sobering to reflect that one of the best ways to get yourself a
reputation as a dangerous citizen these days is to go about repeating
the very phrases which our founding fathers used in the struggle for
independence. ~~ Charles A. Beard

CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance—not soap-boxing—please! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds—is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
