The Tea Party movement had the most peaceful protests and demonstrations in history. These antifa and blm clowns on the other hand... they give animals a bad name.
I went on a trail run the other day and some jack hole had SPRAYPAINTED A TREE with BLM. Racist pine trees, I guess. Their wood was used to make the floorboards of small-town Jim Crow era courthouses.
Same goes for the pro-shutdown crowd which are primarily Leftist "environmentalists." We can't go into the vet with our pet in our area, so seeing that it's in the 90s, everyone is just sitting in their car, sometimes for almost an hour, with their cars running with the AC on. Same thing for doctor appointments. They're only allowing one person in, so anyone else that goes with them sits in the parking lot waiting with the car running.
I've seen this happening a lot more around supermarkets and other stores since people don't want to deal with the mask crap. These morons are nothing but a bunch of hypocrites.
Don't fall into the Rousseau trap. "Nature" is a never-ending battle for survival with no rules except the framework of physics, and has been since the first cells formed.
It is our knowledge, and the control over our environment this knowledge, bestows that has allowed us to create a system that attempts, to the best of our ability--to be "fair" in a way that natural law precludes. This endeavor has been going on for thousands of years, and we're yet to perfect it.
Really nice post. Let me ask you this: with potential pop overshoot, resource constraints and env degradation, dont the uniparty actions begin to make sense?
I mean why not go hog while attemping to enslave humanity to enable personal material surplus?
Resources are constrained through the limits of technology.
The concept of "non-renewable" vs "renewable" is a farce.
EVERYTHING, is renewable. We have as much aluminum, for example, today than we did 2,000 years ago and will continue to have until we have sufficiently advanced technology to alter elements economically- such as fusion of a hydrogen proton to say, cobalt, to create nickle.
In addition, much to the chagrin of Paul Ehrlich, the "population bomb" never went off, even after 5 fucking decades. Eight billion humans can comfortably live in Texas. So that's also not an issue*.
What am I getting at with this? During the Last Glacial Maximum CO2 levels were 170ppm. C3 plants (80% of vegetation) carbon starvation occurs at 150ppm. We're unlocking Life.
I've always been largely dismissive of classical Malthusian concerns based on the simple fact that population growth rates have almost universally flattened out considerably as education and standard of living increased. If we didn't artificially subsidize population growth in undeveloped (or incapable-of-development, at least for now) areas, those areas would cease their population growth as well. If there's a Malthusian crisis brewing, it is of the globalists own creation, rending any notion of a moral high ground in "saving" humanity (by mongrelizing all races into a subservient class under a "benevolent" aristocratic leadership caste) moot. Technology has triumphed for thousands of years in exerting human control over an unpredictable environment, and I have no doubt that we can and will continue to overcome any challenges (including demographic) in the future.
The Georgia Guidestone perspective is a fearful, neurotic, and ultimately, genocidal outlook.
You are reading too much into it. Nature is indeed a never ending battle but there is honor in that battle. Homeostasis is a natural law of all ordered systems. Failure to obey this law results in the destruction of the system. Simple as that. Antifa have upset the homeostasis of America, they will thus be purged so the balance can return.
Homeostasis is a natural law of all ordered systems.
An emergent property, not a priori.
I mean, I don't think we actually disagree; everyone here thinks the rioters are acting far (far, far) below the standards of civilized behavior we set for our society as a whole (and moreover indicative of broader problems with societal subcultures that tenuously coexist within the larger whole where these "values"--and much worse--are the norm).
Not really. From ants to bears animals eat what they need to survive. Maybe you could say that about locust and a few outliers. There is a word called "homeostasis" that nature adheres to or eventually auto-corrects to. Nature has balance.
That's the new-age Gaia theory stuff you're talking about there. In conventional terms, homeostasis refers to an individual organism's ability to maintain an optimal internal balance of temperature, fluids, etc, not an ecosystem's ability to maintain some sort of balance.
No, the only thing limiting the spread of any life form is the presence of predators and a lack of resources. With limitless resources and no predators, life spreads indefinitely.
The irony is that their argument, and their reason to protest, is police brutality.
But if they truly believed that cops were violent, they'd be scared shitless of them. They can attack and humiliate cops without having their teeth kicked in: this proves that there is no police brutality.

I remember when the tea party protesters would make the place CLEANER when they left than when they got there!
Pretty true. I've been in more homes than 80% of Pedes here. How you live reflects who you are.
The filthiest houses have been... take a guess.
I went to a couple early on. Always brought trash bags in my pack to help out.
You should see Minneapolis. I think I could get a disease far worse than Covid in some of these areas.
They are even allowing homeless tents around Lake Harriet, which is insane
That’s what makes all these claims of “the violent far right” so insane
Animals live with honor among nature. Never taking more then they need. You are correct.

I have seen that in Minneapolis, too. So much for their environmentalism.

This makes me so angry words do not exist to convey the emotions! Tree lives matter!!!!

And, even more so, the Homo Sapiens saved Earth:

I absolutely adhere to the Gaia Hypothesis.
Mercury? Dead. Venus? Dead. Mars? Dead.
There's only one living & breathing planet.
Anthropomorphizing.

On with the purging already!
Animals take everything they can until something stops them. Just like these rioters.

And if you remember they called them terrorists at the time.
When you have no arguments you resort to violence.
