Not that I live in Washington, but I really don't get a lot of Hash's positions. Take his video, "The Environment." It's confusing where he actually stands; he's against environmentalism because it involves "a progressive social agenda being foisted on the public." Elsewhere he uses terms like "neoecofantasy."

Interesting, because where I live in Oregon our coast range has been greatly eviscerated and turned into homogenous tree farms hideous to look at. From what I can tell environmentalists are simply trying to hold onto what the logging companies haven't destroyed yet and turned into tree farms. What's radical? Destroying almost everything, or trying to preserve the little that hasn't been destroyed for posterity?

The logging industry is apparently subsidized heavily, and the communities are often cited as reasons to continue, but if it's costing us why not just cut them a check? We're already seeing what happens when a community depends on a finite resource indefinitely, see Roseburg right now. That ain't the socialists fault.

On the other hand, Hash says, “The conservation movement is a political, environmental and a social movement that seeks to protect natural resources including plant and animal species as well as their habitat for the future.” Obviously, I am a Conservationist"

If I am a conservationist/environmentalist, (it's a distinction without a difference), how can I trust Hash to do anything when any regulation could be described as a progressive socialist agenda? How do I know on any given issue whether I'll get socialist Hash or libertarian Hash? He's labeled my concerns as a progressive socialist agenda, even though I am pro gun, pro choice, pro smoking, pro weed, pro free speech?

By the way, you should stand up for the vapers dude, they're very passionate about their vaping rights.

A conservationist is a person with a rational position. An environmentalist is like a cultist.

Last I knew Martin was in Turkey. People like him can easily be in a new location at any time. They have the drive the wealth and the mindset. If he were you, sure, I would just assume that he's always at the same spot in life year after year after year.
Nice try but you are still a dumbass no matter where he summers. He ran for the same seat 3 times. He has roots. Good for him. I know you think insults will cover up your shortcomings but as you said I am steadfast and hardy, I have you exposed and I shall exploit.

Martin when the Democrats started talking about unions did the Walmart swat team show up replete with scabs and start pepper spraying you guys? WalMart doesn't fuck around when it comes to Unions. They'll bring in the big dicks. I heard they even hired the Pinkerton Detective Agency, to prevent their cashiers from organizing.

Aint that the truth. Did a voter registration drive outsode a strip mall years back. One of the places was a vape shop. PA tried to pass a tax, so did the feds, I believe. Got a bunch of them to register that day and let them know about many of our candidates that have taken no tax pledges.

Environmentalists have basically started a race 100 years too late, they're just trying to preserve the scraps at this point.

In my town the folks calling themselves environmentalists regularly inform the public about backroom deals that go down between logging company lobbyists and politicians, things the public should know about and vote on since it's their resources.

Environmentalists are generally anti-science boors who are full of shit.

Usually they pine for collectivist societies even though those types of governments usually have a worse track record when it comes to pollution.
