Now, let’s talk about the fourth sin of the White Left: environmentalism. According to the White Left, the environment is more important than survival itself. But as we the Austrian school of thought believes, survival always trumps environmentalism.
To the White Left, humans are the “virus” of the planet. They believe our mere existence is destroying the habitats of every other species. Honestly, environmentalist White Leftists might as well be anti-human.
For thousands of years, humans have struggled to improve our material conditions. The White Left, however, think we’ve made life “too comfortable”. They want us to throw away all that progress and “return to nature” – what can I say……? Go and fuck yourself!
We’ve already talked about this: stop trying to impose your moral compass on us! The White Left’s environmentalist manifesto is simple: anything that makes life easier for people is automatically bad. The more comfortable you are, the more uneasy they feel. Knowing that somewhere, someone is enjoying the conveniences of modern life? That just ruins their day. They can only sleep well at night if they know your life is at least slightly inconvenient.
Burning coal and petrol gave us warmth, power, the Industrial Revolution, and the modern world as we know it. Yet environmentalists are crazy about eliminating fossil fuels and carbon emissions, treating CO₂ as humanity’s original sin. They want us to regress to the Stone Age, and their precious “Carbon Neutrality” is just a tool for Western politicians to hold back developing countries like China.
Humans cut down trees to make disposable chopsticks, and the environmentalists cry foul, claiming we’re destroying forests. But when we switch to plastic chopsticks, they oppose that too. Use wood? Wrong. Use plastic? Also wrong. It’s a lose-lose situation because, with them, logic goes out the window! It’s always “guilty until proven guilty.”
Their biggest gripe with plastic is that it doesn’t decompose. But you know what else doesn’t decompose? Rocks. Yet they’re not out protesting against stones! Aurum(in daily life we call it Gold) is famously resistant to decomposition and can last for centuries, but you don’t see them hating on gold jewelry. Their double standards are blindingly obvious. For them, natural = good, and human-made = evil. Aurum might not break down, but hey, it’s natural, so it’s fine. Plastic doesn’t break down either, but since it’s human-made, it’s the devil’s work.
Plastic is, without a doubt, a human creation. Nature didn’t make plastic—humans did, using natural materials for our own benefit. In a way, plastic has become part of nature, thanks to human ingenuity. In fact, plastic is a symbol of human civilization. From this perspective, opposing plastic is essentially opposing human progress. And that’s what White Left environmentalism is all about—fighting against human advancement. Their mantra is simple: “If it makes life easier, I hate it.”
Now, you might be thinking: “But what about the plastic in the oceans? The sea turtles and seals full of plastic—what about them?” Don’t worry about the turtles! Don’t worry about the oceans! If the environmentalists have their way, the first species to go extinct will be us, humans!
When it comes to the environment, a lot of people can’t seem to think straight. Extreme environmentalism is bad, but ignoring environmental concerns isn’t right either. The real problem with environmental issues lies in the concept of ownership. Once ownership is clearly established—who benefits and who’s responsible—everything becomes simpler. If you pollute and it damages my property, you should face serious consequences!
On the flip side, if private property rights aren’t protected, people will act short-sightedly. If no one owns the land, the lake, or the forest, you’ll see garbage everywhere, water polluted, and resources depleted. Without stable, long-term ownership, people won’t care to preserve the environment. The overall quality of life will plummet.
Just look at how poorly maintained some old residential areas are—everyone just dumps their trash wherever because it’s no one’s problem. That’s the tragedy of the commons! But in well-maintained, upscale neighborhoods, where property ownership is clear, maintenance is better, and the property management company has a stake in it. So, the service is top-notch, and the environment is pristine.
In short, private property rights are the true foundation of environmentalism. The White Left’s version is just fake environmentalism!
