Let's be clear: It's just a cover. It's Lenin's Birthday.
The guy who established "Earth Day" is a big fat communist, in love with Vladimir Lenin...the Russian Dictator. And on the 100th anniversary of his birth created the tissue thin excuse for us all to celebrate Lenin's Birthday, called "Earth Day".
Love that we celebrate that in America...and American Schools. Yeah?
David Ziemer writes about it.
April 22 is Earth Day. Very appropriately, and not by any means coincidentally, Earth Day is celebrated on the birthday of the socialist tyrant Vladimir Lenin.Alexander Marriott at Capitalism Magazine also comments.
It's appropriate that the two are celebrated on the same day, because there is no relevant difference between the socialist and environmentalist agendas in this country. Saving the environment is simply a euphemism for eviscerating the rights of property owners and creating a dictatorship.
Nikita Khrushchev, Soviet Premier after Joseph Stalin, decided in 1955 that the country should celebrate their national political philosophy, communism. He chose as the day, April 22, Vladimir Lenin's birthday, a tribute to the founder of the Soviet Union. When environmentalists decided that the Earth deserved a day of celebration in 1970, they could have picked any day of the year, as no one knows the exact day date of the Earth's birthday. They chose Lenin's birthday, just as Khrushchev had done. Was this just a coincidence? I think not.
Don Surber of the Charleston Daily Mail has some interesting old quotes from the hysterics of the 70's. Turns out they weren't all that prescient. (D'oh!)
"It is already too late to avoid mass starvation," Hayes said.
"Demographers agree almost unanimously on the following grim timetable: by 1975 widespread famines will begin in India; these will spread by 1990 to include all of India, Pakistan, China and the Near East, Africa.
"By the year 2000, or conceivably sooner, South and Central America will exist under famine conditions . . . By the year 2000, thirty years from now, the entire world, with the exception of Western Europe, North America, and Australia, will be in famine."
He needs to stop going to that gypsy fortune telling machine at the carnival for his forecasts.

(I don't celebrate Lenin's birthday—no matter what they call it!)

ReplyDeleteRe: "old quotes from the 70's"...I remember,as a high school student,being inundated with the drama-queening propaganda,as well as "the coming Ice Age!" bullshit. The "curse" of living lomger and having a memory of real History (and not destroying too many brain cells),even one as short as a human life-span. Now,"Green"-hype in ads is everywhere.What bullshit...
