Green subterfuge

If you think the green movement is for harmless, tree-hugging ex-hippies, think again. If you are not afraid to have your eyes opened to the agenda behind green ideology then consider this:

Why are the Greens so rabidly keen on more State control?  No doubt they would argue that all their green concerns lead naturally to demands for more regulations and public spending and government restrictions. 

Or is the other way round?  Is there a class of bureaucratically-minded folk who favour more State control, for whom green concerns provide what they regard as a justification?  In other words, are the Greens looking after the dolphins, or are the dolphins looking after the Greens?

There is, I believe, a solid, self-interested, class basis for environmentalism.  Green is the natural world view of what sociologists call the ‘New Class’

Greenies have become experts in verbal deconstruction; that is, they use words such as 'democratic', 'freedom', 'sustainability', 'science', 'culture' etc in ways that completely subvert the words original meaning. What this accomplishes is a 'muddying' of the communication waters.  This problem is exacerbated by a grammatically anorexic national English curriculum with the end result being an emerging voter block less able to distinguish political fact from fiction.

We are already witnessing genuinely well motivated voters choosing the Greens because of reasons completely at odds with what the Greens stand for, not because the voters are stupid, but because the Orwellian doublespeak has superseded logic.

The fact that the overwhelming percentage of national journalists and cultural 'influencers' lean rather dramatically towards the extreme left does not auger well for a balanced perspective either:

At the start of Oliver Stone’s movie JFK, Stone uses a clip of President Eisenhower’s famous farewell speech, in which Eisenhower warned of the growing power of the ‘Military-Industrial complex’.  But if you look closely, you’ll see a glitch in the middle of the clip.  It is what’s called in the trade a jump-cut.  Oliver (being left wing) decided to edit President Eisenhower’s original sentence, to remove an equally dire warning about the growing influence of the ‘scientific-administrative complex’
