progressive cyberdadaism from our nation’s capital
I’m always fascinated by the pathology of folks that Michelle Malkin approves of. Take this group. Their idea is to offer Carbon Debits to offset the Carbon Credits that people can buy to offset the harmful effects of people like the Carbon Debiters.
As an example, here’s what you can get for $99.95 from the Carbon Deficit folks:
Malkin, of course, thinks this is very funny. What could be more amusing as a symbolic act than shredding a live tree? Burning a flag, that’s sick. Tree shredding, that’s good clean fun.
Back to the Carbon Debiters. Was this a wingnut attempt at comedy? I’m not so sure. Here’s an excerpt from why they’re doing this:
Our goal is to completely wipe out every Carbon Credit ever bought by selling their nullifying opposite – the Carbon Debit. The guilt and shame that caused people to buy Carbon Credits in the first place will be placed back on them as we let them know that their actions caused us to nullify their credits. They are the cause of us killing trees; they need to face up to their guilt.
This message is important for one reason – Far Left Liberals are lunatics that operate solely on shame of themselves, their success, their country, and their wealth. It is time to expose their ideas and self-defeating idiocy – and selling Carbon Debits is the best way to do that.
See? These guys are exposing the idiocy and lunacy of the self-hating Far Left by shredding live trees at $99.95 a pop. That’s so, umh, reasonable.
