“Is anyone else tiring of all this green hysteria over the heatwave? There is something medieval about it."


 


 

“Is anyone else tiring of all this green hysteria over the heatwave? There is something medieval about it. There is something creepily pre-modern in the idea that sinful mankind has brought heat and fire and floods upon himself with his wicked, hubristic behaviour. What next – plagues of locusts as a punishment for our failure to recycle? The unhinged eco-dread over the heatwave exposes how millenarian environmentalism has become. Climate-change activism is less and less about coming up with practical solutions to the problem of pollution and more about demonising mankind as a plague on a planet, a pox on Mother Earth.”
~ Brendan O'Neill, from his article 'The Heatwave Green Hysteria is Out of Control'

This anti human toxic woke culture is Marxism’s latest disguise. And it is stronger than ever.

Sure, but these are the same people who got hysterical about a respiratory virus - and the means of dealing with it.

How so? I don’t see how you can conflate two different issues.
