| Subject: Alexandria Ocasio Cortez’s Green New Deal: A Socialist Suicide Pact Worthy of Rev. Jim Jones Sun Feb 10, 2019 4:41 pm | |
| Lots of conservatives are laughing at Alexandria Ocasio Cortez and her Green New Deal. And from one perspective, they’re right. It’s not public policy but a delusional wish list, a ransom note pasted together with clipped out words from storybooks and glued in place with bubblegum. It’s much like the Catholic/Bolshevik Tradinista Manifesto which appeared a couple of years ago, to wide acclaim, and mockery here at The Stream.
Cortez wants to end all air travel and stop cows from farting, in order to financially support those “unwilling to work” and appease the gods of the Climate. If you don’t laugh you’ll cry.
But once you’ve stopped chuckling, you notice something unsettling. Namely, the cold Bolshevik steel in the eyes of leftist zealots. The power of Utopian promises and apocalyptic threats to recruit the young and intellectually lazy. The enduring appeal of fantasies of force, from the national socialist thugs of 1920s Berlin to the disgruntled Muslim youths who sign up for ISIS.
