I understand that that was rhetorical. Most of the rank and file and small-potatoes donors probably do. The leadership follows the same formula that every leftist pressure-group does, which explains why civil rights groups don't give a rat's fourth-point-of-contact over modern slavery in Africa, feminists don't worry about horrific abuses in places where there's no political gain to be realized for them, Gays aren't pushing the Administration to stomp on ISIS for chucking homosexuals off of tall buildings and so forth.
An SDS radical once wrote, The issue is never the issue. The issue is always the revolution. In other words, the cause of a political action whether civil rights or womens rights is never the real cause; women, blacks and other victims are only instruments in the larger cause, which is power.

For years, I looked for the Grand Unified Theory of the Left. I think that's it.

Katrina was a racist hurricane that hit New Orleans because it was aiming at black people?

True, but ultimately it doesn’t matter if it works or not. It matters that they control it.

WTF is “Climate Justice”? If there’s one thing that’s certain, the weather doesn’t discriminate.
To: 2ndDivisionVet
I wants mah climate justice.
This winter, we'll trade weather with NOLA.
How's that?

Elizabeth Lumpyaire. She evidently doesn’t believe in supporting environmental justice by reducing her own personal overconsumption.

>>Do they REALLY believe all this nonsense
I was just reading that hyperbole-filled rant and thought the same thing. How can anyone be that stupid, but then I realized that the answer is grocery stores. The author of this has probably never had to do real work to be able to eat in her life. So she thinks that her purpose is “social justice” and Other People can do the things necessary for her to live her comfortable life.

Climate Justice? Really? Mother Nature is a cold-hearted b*tch — you’ll get no “justice” from her.
Amazing that these Gaia-worshipping atheists can’t get that fundamentals right.
