Capitalism Is Fueling The Climate Crisis (scam) Or Something

Remember, this has nothing to do with politics, and everything to do with science. You know, like from the Marxist Mundo Obrero Workers World

Capitalist-fueled climate crisis – ‘Nightmare Reality’

Hurricane Laura made landfall Aug. 26 in west Louisiana and east Texas as a Category 4 storm, with winds clocking in at 150 miles per hour.

The Gulf Coast region in the southern U.S. is on the frontline of a capitalist-induced climate crisis. Most of the people residing there are in close proximity to petrochemical complexes, which are responsible for increasing the regularity and intensity of tropical storm systems.

Thousands lost their homes in the wake of Hurricane Laura, and 200,000 people are without water. (Louisiana Department of Health, Aug. 28) Hundreds of thousands across Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas are without electricity.

Hurricanes never occurred prior to fossil fuels, you know. And the Soviet Union was an environmental paradise, just like China!

Poor communities of color always disproportionately bear the brunt of capitalist-induced climate crisis. This is compounded under COVID conditions, which confirms the truth of Ruth Wilson Gilmore’s definition that racism is the state-sanctioned or extralegal production and exploitation of group-differentiated vulnerability to premature death.

The production of oil under capitalism is disproportionately exposing people of color and poor folks to premature and unnatural death. Yet under capitalism, enough resources are being produced that could provide for everyone facing hardship now.

These resources are being hoarded by a few at expense of the workers who produce this wealth — with the heaviest toll falling on the most oppressed members of our class. Oil companies must pay climate refugees and the world reparations! (snip)

More than ever, the survival of working and oppressed people is a life-and-death struggle that depends on the ability to build power in solidarity and — in the words of Leslie Feinberg — become the best fighters of each other’s oppressions. The workers’ struggle against climate crisis, COVID, capitalism, imperialism and patriarchy has no borders. Workers of the world and oppressed people unite!

It’s interesting that they’re using the capitalist created Internet and capitalist created software for the website while complaining about capitalism.

    Porter typed: capitalist created Internet

    The original ARPANET was funded by the DOD. By and large capitalists are risk averse and want others (e.g., gov’t) to take initial risks. The internet was created by the US gov’t and university scientists working together, with later involvement from companies such as IBM and AT&T.

    We capitalists prefer to swoop in after the heavy lifting and reap the profits.

    Almost all basic scientific research is funded by governments. Physics, chemistry, cell biology, biochemistry, pharmacology research comes from state funding. Pharmaceutical companies use this basic knowledge free of charge.

    All that said, global warming is caused by our burning of fossil fuels releasing CO2 into the atmosphere.

    Of course. Since the whole point of Global warming is to transfer capitalist wealth to others, demonizing the cash cow is expected. It’s a shame it isn’t about actually cleaning the environment. Even capitalists can support that. The dirtiest countries on the planet were all communist. Second dirtiest: undeveloped (formerly called third world). It’s only the capitalist countries that have EVER cared about environmental and animal preservation.

    • Elwood P. Dowd says:

      Carbon dioxide pollution causes global warming and comes mostly from advanced and developing nations, i.e., those of Western Europe, US, China, Russia, India.

    “Capitalism fuels the climate crisis….”. Of course, there’s really no proof of a crisis, but that never stopped the scare machine.
    The alternate and more factual headline would be “capitalism through fracking is fueling lower emissions in the U.S; and would be elsewhere if they were smart enough to use it where available …”. Fixed it

    Communist China and former Communist Russia are no longer best buds. Even Vladimir Putin realizes his best Buds in Iran and China do not have his interests at heart. They are only working to destroy civilization for one goal. Iran wants everyone to be Muslim with them in charge and China wants to over throw the world in a world wide domination in which the CCP communism is the only government.

    With that said it was important that the West and the USA be destroyed internally. A series of propaganda was started, the East pretended to be good ole boys and the west jumped on the chance to grease up for China and Russia as they stole everything we have ever accomplished in the West.

    Everyone knew it. No one seemed to care. The USA first hint was when they produced the F-15 and a few months later the Soviets unveiled a clone of the F-15. Then China started doing the exact same things with their fighters and so on and so forth.

    To complete the destruction of America China came to the USA and infiltrated our jr. High, High Schools and colleges with propaganda about China is great, America is bad and GLOBAL WARMING IS KILLING US ALL. They pounded this point. Wrote fake papers. Paid scientists to produce paper after paper that was Alarmist rather than based in reality.

    It has worked. Our children are communists, if your under the age of 40 you probably believe we are all going to die in like 10 years if we don’t destroy capitalism in the next 2 years.

    Riots, marches. This is the Crescendo of a Concerto. It has finally come together with China releasing on purpose the Covid-19.

    Notice China acted terrified by the sickness, and then when the rest of the world followed suit, they laughed, opened up their businesses and went back to work.

    Elwood has been duped for the last 30 years. Most likely his work place has taken money or support from China the last 30 years. Just like the NBA will worship China but rag on and hate America all for that 1.5 billion dollar contract and yet they ignore the same contract from America. The ignore all the capitalist endorsements they receive.

    the deception is complete. There is a point when someone is sick where the body undergoes irreparable harm and no matter if a cure is found or not, the die is cast. America has undergone irreparable harm and the die is cast. Even with a cure. Covid-19 was the final piece of the Anarchy puzzle to destroy America and the west.

    Prepare. Folks. We will either fight for our country or roll over and I predict we will have no recourse but to roll over because its like Formwiz says, 1 squad of ill informed rangers can destroy 300,000 protestors in 30 seconds.
