I'm surprised there isn't more agreement on the environmentalism tip around here. A kind of pre-industrial, hyper-localized agrarian society of a Jeffersonian type sounds a lot like what traditionalist Americans want.
Until about 5-10 years ago it was mostly super-left environmentalist types that were very loudly against 'globalism'
The only people who should be against it are the metropolitan, neo-con globohomos such as myself.
but I am for nature
I live in a garden of eden, I tend the lands around here, because I am the landed gentry
but Enviromentalism is the Climate Doom cult
it's Hegel + Neitzsche + Malthus = Hitler
God's country is an anathema to that
I'm not wrecking the environment around me
and I have even had environmental laws enforced where there was some sense to it
like a car dealership had some car wash water system which was blasting noise into the woods
so I looked up the regulation which prohibits that, then had it enforced
Don't get me wrong, I am very emotionally attached to the nature around me. Coastal Redwood forests are some of the most perfect slices of God's earth on offer.
But if the options are either sending all of humanity back to pre-industrial existence or torching the redwoods?
I'm just surprised environmentalism is getting such a push back from the sort of accelerationist, America is already over, global-capital-is-the-enemy crowd that often posts here, since those are all environmentalist talking points I remember from my days at college in the early aughts.
the Climate Doom cult invokes the end of the world
then tells people the solution is wind farm scams, solar panel scams, higher taxes, etc
it's fake, not only are totalitarians crazy, they are stupid as well
wherever well intentioned people get together to actually do something substantial
I join in, our river here used to be polluted, dead
but we tend to the watershed here, and now it is cleaned up, the river is full of trout
but that was just local volunteers taking it upon themselves, it didn't come from the government
if anything, Envirmonentalism is inciting people do to nothing about it, paralysis by analysis again
