“The extreme farming scum must be tracked down and locked up.”

When it comes to environmental disasters, who do you generally imagine is responsible? We generally tend to think of an evil rightwing industrial capitalist with a top hat and monocle. Some lad who looks like the Monopoly man, laughing maniacally and twirling his moustache as his money machine pumps toxic fumes into the upper atmosphere. […]
The luddite environmentalist group Extinction Rebellion has declared that “nature is queer,” that “trees can be both male and female and change sex,” and that “the huge range of biodiversity is echoed in human diversity.” The statement was released following a rally in Helsinki by Extinction Rebellion Finland. That rally demanded “ecosocial justice” and the […]

This article in the Irish Independent over the weekend certainly falls into the latter category. The fear is that asking hard questions […]
