Why do environmentalists feel we are the first to face up to the blood thirsty mob?  The culture war represented now by the dimbulb limboobs and their fearless leaders, has gone on and on down through history.

There are many wing nuts who gravitate around the black hole that the latest culture war has created.  But this culture war, with different players, has gone on forever.  

Think back before the 60s.  Back to McCarthy.  The wing nut talking heads of our day try to paint McCarthy as a hero.

Lest environmentalists consider ourselves picked on, think back to whole towns hung as witches in the dark ages.  Mass cat killing, because they were thought to be "familiars' of witches, that caused the rat and flea population to infest the human population with the black plague.

This stuff has always gone on.  A battle between those who worship conformity, authority, and fear, and those who embrace nature and individual rights.  The blood thirsty mob, proudly ignorant and sadistic, against those who embrace the joy of living.

Don't let the historically naive paint this battle as the hippies versus the limboobs.  It is larger than that.  The mob is ancient, passed down generation to generation.  

4 year olds in klan sheets, 12 year olds with ak-47s in child armies, teenage suicide bombers, preteens playing violent video games hour after hour in the millions, salivating to join the patriotic armies of bushco and the exxonmob.  The difference now is that corporate power and technology have given the violent side a new platform.

A global mass media propaganda machine designed to enhance the power and profit behind the modern hate/fear themes.  Don't get "Left Behind" kids, killing for jesus is cool.
