The very fact the Greens have a population policy is repugnant in itself. I'll get around to blogging about this in due course. For the moment, a comment from a Frog Blog thread shows where this is heading:
Just a thought. Do we as humans have a “right to breed”? Who gives us this right?Just a thought. Who do they think have the right to take it away? Another anti-life, anti-family ideology based on an empty moral framework that leads right back to Marxists and the ravings of Sanger, Hitler and others.
By the way, it looks like Mugabe is trying to grow a Mo. Having thrown this photo in with this Population Control post, I may as well go completely Godwin and end on the question: Hitler, Now Available in Green?

Your comments reminded me of nut-job Jim's Flynn's position last year that we should put contraceptives in the drinking water and create a default position of not being able to breed unless we actively take steps to do so - I have credited your triggering of my thinking on my post on the matter.
ReplyDeleteLefty's have no limits as to how far they will go to impinge other's freedoms and invade our homes.
"Hitler, Now Available in Green?" But Zen, who will the portrait be of in this version?
ReplyDeleteI nearly did one of Jeanette, as the face of the NZ Greens, but then I thought better of it (My next confession may be a long session).
ReplyDeleteIt would seem more relevant to take the image of the child they use in their "vote for me" election poster, and work with that.
A second baby X'd out?
"one vote, one person, max?"
"but not my brother - he didn't make it"
etc
Yes, use the one with the two kids playing in the grass, the "vote for us" one.
ReplyDeleteYou could have a field day with this considering their new family policy.
The Greens seem to be getting more and more radical. Maybe because they are being squeezed out of the environmental political space by the bigger parties so they are exploring their socialist, even Marxist tendencies more.
It is a frightening policy.
ReplyDeleteBut look - their billboards are so good-- my kids and even myself look at them and say 'why not' when it says 'vote for me'and shows the earth and a child.
We really just need good marketing to convince others that private porperty rights and so on are good for conservation. Everyone is interested in preserving the natural environment. The centre right has really failed in getting our message accepted.
Yes, but I think the centre right isn't demonstrating genuine interest in this area in terms of political expression.
ReplyDeleteEqually, many of the Green "awareness raising" ideas are trite, promote a false sense of effectiveness and many are not well thought through. That's one of the advantages in being so zealous I think - the sheer passion and commitment can blind people to the adverse effects of the policy. But hey, these are just 'minor' issues to work through, because the main aim (for them) is to save the planet from humans.
I think there has to be a twofold strategy - one is for those of us on the right to demonstrate a genuine interest in the environment and how private property rights, science and freedom actually can and will advance this - the other is the critique of the Green Marxist agenda. It is an abandonment of reason, the individual and is an all encompassing philosophy of Nanny State.
