Heil Obama!

The first amendment to the Constitution protects religion from government control.  Obama and his minions believe it protects atheists from being offended by the celebration of the birth of Christ and other Christian beliefs.  Thank God the Catholic Church has finally awoken from the evil progressive siren song and declared war on the Obama administration for attempting to force the Church's institutions to accept the mass murder of pre-born human beings or be shut down.  It is finally clear that Obama is the true spawn of Alinsky's Lucifer.

"Scientists" Predict that Aliens will Murder us and "Pickle our Skulls" because we are Poor Stewards of the Earth

So sayeth the International Business Times.  Are these the same "scientists" who say the Earth is doomed due to manmade global warming?  Answer: Absolutely.

I personally believe that aliens will destroy us because our climate scientists are greedy assholes and delusional idiots.

The Willy Wonka Strategy

“Wait…Don’t…Stop…” – Willy Wonka

“Never interfere with the enemy while he’s in the process of destroying himself.”- Napoleon Bonaparte

All that I am hearing from the incessant drone of the progressive mainstream media today is how the Tea Party and their representatives in Congress are responsible for bringing down the country. They’re terrorists. They have singlehandedly caused the stock market crash and the downgrading of our national credit rating. All because they wouldn’t let Obama and the Democrats tax those evil rich people and continue spending.

Heck, most of the “rich” people I know are progressives who are repeating the Democrat talking points. What’s wrong with taking a little more of my income, they ask? They don’t seem to mind. They have plenty of savings to rely on, so what’s the harm?

In our oddly rational conservative minds, we know the answer. It will ultimately hurt the economy. Jobs will not be created, they will be destroyed. The expected revenue will not materialize as the rich will use the available tax avoidance strategies. And, it will inevitably prevent members of the middle class from moving into the realm of the wealthy.

What conservatives and the Tea Party are missing is the fact that this is a strategic, long-term struggle. There are fifteen months until the next election. This next election is not just another run-of-the-mill political event. This election will determine the ultimate direction of our country for the next century. If you don’t understand that, you are one of the vast legions of the clueless, which unfortunately makes up the majority of the American electorate.

As a conservative and a Tea Party supporter, I believe we are destroying ourselves by doing what we believe is best for the nation we love. We are fighting liberal lemmings and preventing them from jumping off the cliff. Meanwhile, the lemmings are blaming us for standing in the way of progress. And the media is making this a convincing argument.

I know it goes against everything we believe, it damages the nation and violates our core values…but we must step aside and let the Democrat party commit suicide without our interference. At least for the next several months.

Willy Wonka was brilliantly portrayed by Gene Wilder in the movie “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory”. He protested in a mockingly soft voice, “Wait…Don’t …Stop…” as the selfish, undisciplined kids ran wild and attempted to destroy his factory, knowing that there was no reasoning with them or their ignorant parents, and that they would soon receive their just rewards. Similarly, conservatives need to voice their concerns with the liberal Democrat agenda, and then step out of the way.

Any consequences that occur over the next year can hopefully be reversed or at least mitigated with the appropriate people in office in 2013. They will never be reversed, however, if the “mainstream” media successfully convinces the majority of the electorate that Republicans and the Tea Party are at fault for their misery, rather than the party that has been in control of the majority of the government and the economy for the past six years.

I believe it is this contemporary progressive news media that is primarily responsible for the skewed political landscape we face. Most Americans don’t question its bias, and they listen to the recycled Democrat talking points it delivers as gospel truth. And since the liberal news editors who head the media outlets are given sole discretion over what news to release, the conservative side of the story is never heard by most of America.

So I am beseeching you conservatives, Republicans, and Tea Partiers…Fight your instincts. Do not resist the Democrat agenda. Don’t even compromise. Let them have their way for the next fifteen months. There is no possibility that they can reverse the course of the nation’s economy in that time with their destructive policies.

We will all suffer through the effects of these misguided policies, but at some point it will end. It will end when it becomes painfully clear to the majority of Americans that Democrats retain full responsibility for this incredible disaster they have imposed on all of us. If we do not do this, the misery will continually worsen well past our children’s lifetimes. America as we have known it will no longer exist.

It is incredibly ironic, but the only way to save our nation is to let it be destroyed, at least in the short term.

Hooray for Captain America!

Captain America is a spectacular, patriotism-inspiring movie that you’re sure to love, unless you are an America-hating member of the evil army of Hydra. Or a progressive, take your pick.

Hollywood critics have given the movie a lukewarm reception, calling it “simplistic” (Hollywood Reporter), “cliché” (Filmcritic.com), and “subversive” (Boston Globe). It’s not surprising that the liberal Hollywood literati turn up their collective noses at it. The Boston Globe compares it negatively to the anti-war movies “Coming Home” and “Born on the Fourth of July”.

In Progresso-world, our country is despotic, Jane Fonda is America’s Sweetheart, and Oliver Stone is our national Bard.

In truth, they hate it because it is an allegory for American exceptionalism. Have you noticed that all of the iconic superheroes are Americans? They make us feel good because they represent all that is positive about our country. (OK, Thor is an undocumented worker from Asgard. There are a lot of parallels between Asgard and America, however. Especially when the evil Loki, masquerading as a purveyor of hope and change, takes the throne.)

America is the most exceptional nation in human history, based on its belief in the innate strength and wisdom of the individual, its thirst for freedom and justice, and its power to defend itself and others from forces of evil. America is the superhero of nations.

Captain America the movie expresses this concept purely and perfectly, without a hint of liberal snarkiness or self-loathing. It thrills and inspires, with no obligatory depravity, gratuitous sex, or stomach-churning violence. Marvel Studios has created a masterful and uniquely American classic.

Marvel has also atoned for its grotesque mischaracterization of the Tea Party as bigoted and evil in its infamous Captain America #602. Issued in early 2010, it coincided very closely with the Disney acquisition of Marvel. Perhaps Disney got the message from the negative outcry of its largest customer base, conservatives.

The Red Skull is the embodiment of evil, along with his minions in Media Matters, er, I mean Hydra. If you close your eyes during the climactic scene when Red says, in his Germanic accent, “I have seen the future…There are no flags!”, you can almost visualize a young George Soros in glorious 3-D. Brandishing his red, white, and blue shield, Cap speaks for America when he retorts, “Not in my future!”

"The Obama Depression"

Watch as Howard Davidowitz goes bonkers over the insanity of the policies of "the Detroit Lions of Presidents".

"Demonic" Ann Coulter

I attended an event at the Nixon Presidential Library in Yorba Linda, CA last week for Ann Coulter’s new book, "Demonic".  This superb work exposes the inherent evil of the “mob” mentality within the progressive leftist movement.

She did a three hour live radio broadcast for KABC in the Library and personally signed each participant's book.  Her superior intellect, rapier-like wit, and gracious charm were apparent that night. 

As I got to the front of the line, I asked her to sign the book to Andrew Thomas aka “Dark Angel”, explaining that I have a blog called Dark Angel Politics.  She gave me a tired look that said, “Hoo boy, everybody has a freakin’ blog these days”.  So I quickly added that I also write for American Thinker.  Her eyes immediately brightened up and she gave me a big smile.  “Oh, yeah”, she said.  “I’ve read some of your articles!”

Now that made my day.

China’s Counterfeit Economy: The Hidden Global Threat

In a desolate post-apocalyptic landscape, a Chinese peasant climbs over a rain-soaked mountain of electronic garbage. He is joined by hundreds of other peasants, scavenging through endless acres of discarded computers, junked telephones, and millions of scrapped consumer electronic devices. The peasant searches for any electronic components that look undamaged. Sifting through this vast graveyard of imported American e-waste, he stuffs printed circuit boards into a sack.

Communist China has graciously accepted our technological trash, made too expensive to dispose of in the US due to the onerous regulations imposed by the EPA (Economic Prevention Agency).

The peasant sits in a dusty clearing and starts a small fire. He holds a circuit board over the flame until the solder starts to melt. Quickly rapping the board against a rock, he watches as the precious harvest of integrated circuit (IC) components fall to the ground. The peasant gathers the ICs and takes them to a small ramshackle factory where he can sell them for a few pennies per dozen.

Within this makeshift workshop, the ICs are cleaned, and painted with a black epoxy to cover up the original markings. They are then silkscreened with false information including a consistent date code to make them appear to be from the same manufacturing lot. Of course, these ICs are severely weakened by the harsh environmental conditions and exposure to Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) through unprotected handling, which is devastating to active electronic components.

The reprocessed ICs are subsequently sold to independent electronic component brokers, who ship them back to the US and sell them at discount prices to largely unsuspecting electronics manufacturers.

Although this is a common method of counterfeiting, many other types of counterfeits are produced as well, primarily in China. Some ICs are reverse-engineered and manufactured with a copied internal die. Some of these have been known to include hidden, and occasionally malicious, functions not designed into the genuine component.

Other components, such as resistors and capacitors, are also re-harvested or faked. Over the past ten years billions of counterfeit ICs, microprocessors, and other components have been sold to private industry throughout the world, including medical equipment manufacturers. They have also been sold to America’s aerospace industry and the US military.

This is a multi-billion dollar illegal enterprise that has resulted in upwards of $1.2 trillion in lost sales, which has been either ignored or sanctioned by the Communist Chinese government. It is estimated that all commercial electronic devices such as televisions and cellphones contain more than 8% counterfeit components on average.

The next time you are on a long transcontinental flight, think about the fact that the US Federal Aviation Authority has estimated that 2% of commercial jetliner electronics are counterfeit. Actually, if you have aerophobia, perhaps it’s best not to think about it.

Just as there is a constant race between the increasing sophistication of computer viruses and anti-virus software, new methods of counterfeit detection are met with technology innovations in counterfeit manufacturing, making fake electronics harder to detect. It is now becoming nearly impossible to identify many counterfeit ICs without tearing them apart (decapsulation). Techniques such as X-ray and scanning electron microscopy are increasingly popular. This naturally results in significantly increased costs for electronic products.

China is a giant mosquito. Instead of sucking blood and replacing it with a toxin, it sinks its proboscis into America, sucks the jobs and wealth from the country and replaces them with toxic goods. We have suffered through poisoned Chinese dog food, toxic children’s jewelry, and a sea of counterfeit drugs. Poisoned blood thinner heparin made in China killed 81 Americans before it was detected.

Are you having continual computer problems? Do you go through faulty cellphones like beer nuts? The next time an American F-15 fighter jet mysteriously goes down due to an unknown electronics malfunction, think about how this invisible Chinese invasion may be impacting all of our lives.

Equal Time for Socialism

I'm going to do something completely different (which I love to do), and publish a comment from Stephen, a self-described member of the International Socialist Organization (ISO).  He makes a cogent argument, some of which I even agree with.  Capitalism is not a perfect economic system. 

Hi. I'm a member of the ISO and found your blog. I'd like to make a few comments. ISO's position regarding scarcity/abundance: We believe that there is an abundance of wealth, more than enough than what is necessary to provide everyone on the planet with a decent standard of living, and the potential exists to further expand our productive capacity and output and to increase the efficiency of distribution in order to provide an even higher standard of living with more free time for all. However, capitalism's tendency towards crisis (as we see today) and reliance on exploitation creates a situation of instability and poverty for the majority of people on the planet, while a handful have more wealth than they could ever hope to consume in 1000 lifetimes. One of the bases for the possibility of socialism is abundance. Capitalism has made it possible for the first time in history to meet humanity's needs for food, clothing, and shelter. The problem is that under capitalism all decisions about what to produce and how to produce are subordinated to a simple consideration: how to maximize profits. So long as the economy is organized around this principle, the exploitation of workers, environmental devastation and international economic competition that spills over into military conflict will persist. Capitalism creates artificial scarcity for basic human necessities while pretending that such shortages are natural. The social relations of production under capitalism are a fetter on the productive forces. The capitalists own all the businesses and won't sell or make anything unless they can make a profit off of it. Meanwhile millions go homeless, hungry, and without health care. Despite there being great abundance. What drives our advocacy of a woman's right to choose, is not the supposed overpopulation of the planet, but a woman's right to do with her body whatever she chooses. Regarding the nature of government/the state: Marxists regard the state as the instrument of class rule. It is from class conflict that states/governments arise. Capitalism is a class society. There is a ruling class (capitalists) who have complete domination/a monopoly of economic and political power. And an exploited oppressed class, the working class, who does not own the means of production and have no political power. Whoever own the means of production (capitalists) therefore also commands political and economic power. And both political parties in this system serve the capitalists. Representatives from both parties are all millionaires take lobbyist bribes from big business. The government is the organized violence of a minority (the capitalists) over the majority (the working class). Its the guardian of inequality and protects the capitalists and their system. The police and the military are the bodyguards of the ruling class. The government exists to serve the capitalists. The real question isn't the size of government, its whose side the government is on. And by its actions and the actions of Democrats and Republicans both, we can see its on the side of capitalists. Trillions of dollars in bailouts to Wall St. bankers. Billions of dollars in taxpayer subsidies to businesses. Tax breaks for the rich. The invasions of other countries for the benefit of energy companies and military contractors.

As Stephen states, "Capitalism has made it possible for the first time in history to meet humanity's needs for food, clothing, and shelter."  This is no small accomplishment.  The problem is that he and his fellow socialists want to destroy this imperfect system and replace it with a system that has NEVER worked any time in human history.  And they want to do this on a global basis.  Can you imagine a Stalin, Mao, Chavez, Pol Pot, or Jung Il as ruler of the entire planet?  The opportunities for corruption and despotism are limitless in a world naively envisioned by people like Stephen.  This is why the Stephens of the world are so dangerous.  They yearn for the perfect world with fair outcomes for everyone.  The outcome in reality is always the exact opposite of their intent.  Socialism inevitably results in two separate classes:  The wealthy all-powerful ruling class and the impoverished proletariat. 

It was the "evil" capitalists who were producing our abundance of fruits and vegetables in the San Jacquin valley.  It was our "benevolent" government that shut off their warter supply and destroyed 12% of our nation's food supply, as well as thousands of livelihoods.  Who do you think has the ultimate power in this country? 

Socialism is the killer of personal freedom, creativity, incentive, and personal wealth.  It results in the death of the human soul.  And for that reason it must be fought with our last free breath.

The Socialist Phobia of Scarcity

Well, my daughter’s Brooklyn wedding went off without a hitch on May 21st, and the world didn’t end. That was fortunate, as it would have spoiled a wonderful event.

My new son-in-law is an enthusiastic member of ISO, the International Socialist Organization. He is on the verge of a Master’s in Political Science, with the goal of becoming a college professor. With his philosophical bent, I think it’s a slam-dunk. Prestigious universities appear to value extreme radical leftism over all other qualifications for their faculties, so I expect he will be a very successful propagandist for young mushy minds.

Per my wife’s strict admonitions, I avoided all potentially incendiary topics of discussion in his presence before the wedding. The happy couple departed on their honeymoon while my wife and I dog-sat for them in their Brooklyn apartment.

After their return from a lavish tropical paradise getaway, I spent the evening chatting with my new son-in-law. We threw back a few Beefeater and tonics, and both of us felt our constraint melt away.

I calmly expressed my curiosity about his membership in the International Socialist Organization.

He explained that ISO believes in the philosophy of Trotsky and Lenin in the establishment of a workers’ paradise. Their mission is the destruction of capitalism and the imposition of a global socialist government. Capitalism is inherently evil, he stated, as it exploits and oppresses workers and steals their wealth.

I retorted that government is the primary source of oppression and exploitation, and the greatest danger exists when markets are in collusion with government. The result is the socialist economic perversion known as “crony capitalism”.

We began to get louder and louder, and I feared waking my wife and daughter. “Are YOU oppressed?” I asked. He surprised me with an emphatic “Yes! I have been oppressed all of my life.”

At this, I belly-laughed uncontrollably. It’s amazing, I opined, that a pitiable victim of wretched corporate oppression could return from a week of snorkeling and surf & turf at a posh resort in the Virgin Islands to their upscale apartment and watch their brand new 60 inch state-of-the-art 3D TV.

After the continued ratcheting up of rhetoric we agreed to a truce, both of us acknowledging that our stimulating debates were ultimately enjoyable and enlightening. Time for another B & T.

Later, I thought about my son-in-law’s concept of an all-powerful Wall Street sucking the cash out of workers’ pockets, leaving them destitute. I can understand the propensity of some to portray bankers, CEOs, and hedge fund managers as insatiably greedy boogeymen. But the idea that a small group of people amassing great wealth means that there is less left for the rest of us is patently absurd to a free market thinker.

Part of socialist angst may be due to class envy, but I believe most of it is based on the phobia of scarcity.

If you are a socialist, chances are you believe that there is only a limited amount of wealth in the world. People are impoverished only because rich capitalists are hoarding it.

You probably also believe that global natural resources are scarce, the world’s water supply is drying up, and irreplaceable species are becoming extinct.

This irrational fear of scarcity is what drives the socialist advocacy for abortion of the unborn and euthanasia of the aged and infirm.

As it turns out, the “population bomb” has thus far been a dud. Paul Ehrlich’s 1968 book of the same name predicted mass starvation and global social upheavals by the 1980s. Although this never happened, it has not deterred true believers.

Just as the followers of Harold Camping haven’t lost faith after his May 21 end of the world prediction fell flat (it’s now October 21, 2011), Ehrlich and his followers are ever faithful to the cause. In fact, in 1999 Ehrlich said the book was too optimistic about the future.

The irrational fear of vanishing species drives extraordinary, some would say self-destructive, behavior through regulatory action. Fear of extinction of the little Delta Smelt has caused government regulators to shut off the water supply to California’s San Joaquin valley, costing thousands of jobs and farmers’ lost livelihoods. Approximately 12% of America’s food production has been devastated as a result.

If you are a conservative and an advocate of the free market, it is likely you believe in abundance. You believe wealth is not limited, but rather can be created and multiplied. You don’t need to grab your piece of the pie from someone who has more than you. You know that everyone can have more as the pie grows bigger.

You believe that natural resources exist for the purpose of supporting and advancing mankind, not to be in competition with humans for the Earth.

Water is not disappearing from the planet. There is the same amount now as there was billions of years ago. It exists as a solid, a liquid, and a gas, and it recycles, refreshes and renews itself.

Species come and go. New ones are created as fast as old species die out. In fact, Darwin’s theory of natural selection demands that weaker species disappear in order to make the ecosystem stronger. Ultimately, many of the extraordinary measures taken in the cause of protecting the environment may in fact be endangering it.

The free market conservative has faith that as long as man is free, wealth and natural resources will be abundant and mankind will thrive. The socialist believes in the power of government to forcibly redistribute wealth and resources, control the population and the environment, and micromanage mankind into a heretofore unseen utopian society. Never mind that all previous attempts at this have been abject failures, frequently resulting in the mass murder and death by starvation of tens of millions of socialist citizens.

Oppressive government regulation kills the golden goose of abundance, and transforms the phobia of scarcity into a self-fulfilling prophesy. If the self-destructive irrationality of socialism is not a psychotic mental disorder, perhaps it is at least a serious neurosis.

Former Warmist Scientist Exposes Fraud, Says It's Not About Green, It's About Greed

Weather balloons had been measuring the atmosphere since the 1960s, many thousands of them every year. The climate models all predict that as the planet warms, a hot spot of moist air will develop over the tropics about 10 kilometres up, as the layer of moist air expands upwards into the cool dry air above. During the warming of the late 1970s, ’80s and ’90s, the weather balloons found no hot spot. None at all. Not even a small one. This evidence proves that the climate models are fundamentally flawed, that they greatly overestimate the temperature increases due to carbon dioxide.

This evidence first became clear around the mid-1990s.

At this point, official “climate science” stopped being a science. In science, empirical evidence always trumps theory, no matter how much you are in love with the theory. If theory and evidence disagree, real scientists scrap the theory. But official climate science ignored the crucial weather balloon evidence, and other subsequent evidence that backs it up, and instead clung to their carbon dioxide theory — that just happens to keep them in well-paying jobs with lavish research grants, and gives great political power to their government masters.

Biofools

Could there be a more incompetent horde of goofballs than radical environmentalists and their enablers, the Democrats in Congress?   Perhaps a convention of Stooges and Inspector Clouseaus could cause more unintended consequences, but it's doubtful.

After listening to the tantrums of the Warmist cult, Congress decides to subsidize biofuel production, particularly cassava, corn, sugar and palm oil crops grown for fuel.  The result, as we are starting to realize, is a dramatic decrease in the world's food supply and sharply rising costs. 

Unintended consequence:  Accelerating world hunger, particularly in poor, third-world nations. 

Now it is reported (by Warmists themselves) that biofuels produce black carbon soot in the atmosphere.  This has been found to contribute to accelerate melting of the Himalayan glaciers and threatening the water supply for billions of third-world inhabitants.

Unintended consequence:  Draught, devastation, and death (according to the Warmists' own propaganda).

Of course, the effects of biofuel soot are only a threat if you drink the Warmist cult Kool-aid.  Since they are still pushing increases in the use of biofuels, it appears that they don't want to drink it themselves. 

Warming cultists' behavior reminds me of the Simpson's episode where Homer realizes the hogie sandwich he's eating is killing him from food poisoning, but he keeps on eating it anyway, because that's what he does. 

Destroying the world to save it.  That's what Warmists do.

It's Time to Disband the Warmist Cult

I have been reading that the world is going to end on May 21, 2011. This is extremely distressing to me, since I have a daughter who is getting married on this date and it’s too late to reschedule the wedding.

This apocalyptic prediction is being promoted by a group of religious cultists. Big surprise. They are being led by radical evangelist Harold Camping. He has been labeled a “false prophet”, mainly due to the fact that his predictions are not reliable. His previous pronouncement of the “end times” was September 6, 1994. As the thousands of cult leaders before him, his track record as a prognosticator stinks on ice. Nevertheless, his devoted followers will uncritically follow him into the abyss.

In a similar manner, the global warmist cult has its false prophets as well. George Soros-sponsored climatologist James Hansen leads with the prediction that we only have two more years before it will be too late to save the world from a fiery fate. I would be more inclined to take him seriously if he hadn’t previously made a number of erroneous apocalyptic pronouncements. In the mid-1980’s he confidently proclaimed that the Earth would be 2 to 4 degrees warmer by 2010 and New York City highways would be under water.

Leading global warming proponent and climate scientist Phil Jones (co-creator of the infamous "hockey stick" graph used by Al Gore in his infamous fiction film "An Inconvenient Truth") revealed that he destroyed the original raw data that supported the global warming hypothesis, making it impossible to review or verify his findings. Additionally, Jones and other climate science associates actively suppressed any scientific studies which disputed their claims, as evidenced in the "Climategate" e-mails.

Jones confessed last year that no warming of the Earth has actually occurred for the past fifteen years. This has been confirmed by NOAA satellite temperature data records.

The lead author of the also infamous UN IPCC report, Dr. John Christy recently admitted that global warming is a "non-falsifiable hypothesis". This means it cannot be classified as an actual scientific theory, but instead relegated to a quasi-religious dogma based upon a belief rather than verifiable facts.

Since the principle warmists have admitted the sham or have been revealed as “false prophets”, I view those who remain "true believers" to be truly pathetic individuals. They are cultists worshiping at the altar of Gaia, anxiously wringing their hands in fear and demanding tribute and sacrifice from the masses.

This Shakespearean comedy would be hysterical was it not for the tragic fact that billions of dollars have been squandered and continue to be stolen from our economy and our personal finances because of this blatant falsehood and these misguided individuals.

A US Senate report on EPA global warming policy released in September, 2010 indicated that the EPA estimated that an expenditure of $78 billion per year until 2100 (90 years) will result in lowering the Earth’s temperature by 0.006 to 0.0015 degrees centigrade. If the average of these predicted temperature reduction figures (0.00375 degrees) is used to calculate the cost of lowering the Earth’s temperature, the result is a mind-boggling $1,900 trillion for each degree of lowered temperature.

Since the entire US economy only consists of about $15 trillion this year, it will take every dollar bill on the planet for the next 90 years to make an insignificant dent in the phantom global warming threat. In other words, the whole idea that human beings can affect the temperature of the Earth is preposterous and the EPA has admitted as much.

Coincidentally, an official report from an economically-troubled Japan just revealed that the country spent $78 billion on global warming research that was determined to be “fruitless”. Imagine if they had used that money for a better purpose, such as improving the safety of their nuclear reactors.

For that matter, imagine what the US could do with the extra trillions of dollars we will “fruitlessly” flush down the toilet in the worship of Gaia if the warmist cult has its way. Could we find cures for cancer and heart disease? Could we permanently address worldwide hunger with advanced agricultural processes? Perhaps we could use it to eventually colonize Mars.

With that amount of capital, the possibilities for realistically improving our lives are limitless. Maybe we should just be more pragmatic and actually balance the budget first.

Maurice Strong, another George Soros-sponsored false prophet and primary architect of the UN global warming and global governance project Agenda 21, once asked “Isn't the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn't it our responsibility to bring that about?"

It’s becoming apparent as the facts are revealed that this is a cult with a suicide pact. And all of us are expected to drink the Kool-aid with them. We need to end this dangerous farce now.
