Bill: Anti-EnvironMENTALism
Details
Submitted by[?]: Thatcherite Alliance
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: August 3151
Description[?]:
| It is all in the name, those who follow the green movement are mental. I mean, why should the majority have to suffer, have to change their lifestyles just because of a group of hand-ringing, tree hugging, pot smoking hippies? Is it just because they hate people and modern civilisation and believe bugs are more important than humans? Or is it just because of their poor, uneducated and inbred mind which sadly cannot be fixed. I for one, love civilisation, love CO2 and believe humans come first. It is time the majority stood up and told those bug worshippers to crawl back into their caves because society does not want and has no time for fools like those. To sum up the green movement is a watermelon movement. Green on the outside, red on the inside. Be very afraid Deltaria, be very afraid. |

| Message | Oh really? I'm not the one who sits in a cave all day, singing songs to Gaia and smoking pot with your other hippie friends. I'm not the one who worships bugs and hugs trees and thinks that plants have rights and are more important than animals. Whose the inbred one now eh? |

| Message | And greenies wonder why they are so hated by the public. If we ever needed a Holocaust it would to be get rid of them, they are wasting my oxygen and plus they're contributing to all that naughty global warming by breathing out that terrible, terrible trace gas CO2. How dare they. ((Seriously, I don't know if you're a bug worshipper yourself but they are the most stupid people on the planet. I'm currently in university studying journalism and there is this one guy there who is a greenie though and through and he didn't even know that the moon was closer to earth than the stars. He thought the stars were closer. I'm dead serious.)) |

| Message | ((How dare you mention a horrific genocidal act just to dispose of people who do not share your political views. Such extremist opinions are paramount to Hitler himself. I am a science student at university, and I cannot believe you do not believe in climate change. I'm dead serious. So I think you should think twice before being so disrespectful in an online simulation where you are supposed to be simulating a political party)) |

| Message | ((Geez calm down it was only a joke, if there is anything worse than bug worshippers it is those politically correct crackpots who cannot understand a bit of black humour which is the best form of comedy out there. Plus I'm half Russian, half Estonian and my grandparents lived through all that and were victims of it too but I don't get offended whenever someone makes jokes about it, I find it quite humorous actually. By the way I do believe that the climate changes i.e. summer, autumn, winter and spring. What I don't believe is that humans are responsible for it, i don't believe the world is warming significantly and I don't believe CO2 is a problem. I'm not the only one too, in fact even your beloved Al Gore is backtracking if you've read his latest book I've only flicked through it, he said that methane is a problem and is causing warming, not CO2. It just gets better and better doesn't it?)) |

| Message | ((Oh I almost forgot, it seems you left wingers are the real extremists here. A woman from Melbourne by the name of Jill Singer proposed to exterminate all those who don't believe in global warming nonsense and she is far more influential than me. This is what she wrote: "Really? I'm prepared to keep an open mind and propose another stunt for climate sceptics - put your strong views to the test by exposing yourselves to high concentrations of either carbon dioxide or some other colourless, odourless gas - say, carbon monoxide. You wouldn't see or smell anything. Nor would your anti-science nonsense be heard of again. How very refreshing." http://www.heraldsun.com.au/opinion/sideshow-around-carbon-tax-must-stop/story-fn56az2q-1226079531212 |
