Ftr, none of this is a Green agenda. It's capitalist, the opposite of a true Green agenda. Especially with the Henry Kissinger connection.

Greens oppose this kind of thing. We support things like the Open Source Seed Initiative. We're appalled that a handful of companies control the seeds needed to grow food to sustain life. That's the reason a lot of Greens oppose GMO seeds - the corporate control of these seeds by companies who have no problem suing small farms into oblivion. Greens think that people should be able to save seeds to plant later, as has been done ever since the dawn of agriculture.

We also don't promote eating bugs. Ick.

As Michael Pollan says, "Eat food, not too much, mainly plants." That's the real Green point of view.

That's the thing, that they push it under the guise of it being something that people think is a good thing because they don't understand or bother to learn what a real green agenda would look like.

And I would say it's not just capitalist, it's globalist. I just did a comment in the last day or so about the "Dark Triad," a group of three personality traits - narcissism, Machiavellianism and psychopathy - which Cory Morningstar talks about here:

That is, individuals who possess characteristics of any of the personality disorders that make up the Dark Triad are likely to be selfish, possess a grandiose sense of importance, and feel an increased sense of entitlement. Further, these individuals are often pre-occupied with dominance and power and will use aggressive tactics such as manipulation and exploitation to get whatever it is that they feel that they deserve.

I think that pretty much describes the people now ruling our world.

Yep. It's greenwashing. Not really Green at all in any sense of the word, but masquerading as such.

"Dark Triad" - that's a great name! And it does perfectly describe our rulers.
