Wait, I thought it was income inequality? Equality of the sexes? Fight for $15? Soaking the rich? Amnesty for all? This kind of thing by super unserious thinkers reminds me of an old shtick by the Bob And Tom Show called “You’re Not Helping The Show“. I can’t find the more fleshed out version, which included lines like “Dead puppies…..not funny.” Things like this really do not help the cause of the Cult of Climastrology except in the fever swamp minds of the cultists. Especially when she sounds like a 15 year old
OCASIO-CORTEZ: CLIMATE CHANGE IS MILLENNIALS AND GEN. Z’S ‘WORLD WAR II’
Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez claimed that climate change is millennials’ version of World War II during a Martin Luther King Jr. Day event on Monday at Riverside Church in New York City.
“I think that the part of it that is generational is that millennials and people, in Gen Z, and all these folks that come after us are looking up and we’re like, the world is gonna end in 12 years if we don’t address climate change. And your biggest issue is, your biggest issue is how are we going to pay for it? — and like this is the war, this is our World War II,†Ocasio-Cortez began.
“I think for younger people, we’re looking at this are more like, how are we saying ‘let’s take it easy’ when 3,000 Americans died last year, how are we saying ‘let’s take it easy’ when the nth person died from our cruel and unjust criminal justice system?†she asked.
“How are we saying take it easy, when the America that we’re living in today is dystopian with people sleeping in their cars so they can work a second job without healthcare and we’re told to settle down. It’s a fundamental separation between that fierce urgency of now, the why we can’t wait that King spoke of,â€Â Ocasio-Cortez added.
As you can see, ‘climate change’ is just a part of the overall progressive/leftist/socialist/Marxist/whatever you want to call it push for big big big government. It’s a tool, like the Fight For $15, which puts people out of work. It’s not science. It’s politics.
