In short, the Greens have drifted to the very far left of British politics and swallowed all the necessary delusions while doing so. It is all a little ironic, given that the roots of the Green movement lie in fin-de-siècle proto-fascism, the blood-and-soil notions of purity that so commended themselves to Adolf Hitler and became, in the end, a stirring Nazi slogan. I suppose one might argue, then, that at least the Greens are remaining true to one plank of the ideology that was most definitely present when the movement was created. Not every vestige has quite been jettisoned.
Left wing greenery is a result of Socialists realising that there was very little mileage in freeing the Working Man™.
Proper Socialism used to be about exploiting the earth for the betterment of the masses. Production was all.
As the Working Class in the 1960s 70d and 80s began less and less interested in revolution, then new ventures had to be found. So we have Race, LgbtqXL5, environmentalism and so on.
The result being that the Left now embraces Apartheid, forced deindustrialisation and denies objective reality.
If I find out somebody votes Green, I just immediately assume he’s a paedophile.
It saves time.

If I find out someone’s a Green, I immediately assume he wants to impoverish ME!!!
Being totally selfish, I naturally have it in for him.

Well then you’ll have to sell him your children and it will be completely your fault.
Fortunately I don’t have any children Mark.
But then I think of my nieces, nephew and great-nephews.
And I find I can’t decide between impalement and crucifixion.
I always thought the Greens was all about Communism for middle class old ladies.
Maybe I’m wrong?
The blood-and-soil is giving way to blood-and-sand. Those middle class old ladies that John Galt correctly references are rapidly being joined by bellowing Pakistanis ranting about foreign conflicts.

Personally, I think the gay rights for Palestinians crowd have simply misunderstood some of the slogans of the antisemites in the Labour Party, such as ‘Bugger the Jews’.
(I’m waiting for the end of the military action and some of the court cases involving 7th October perpetrators. I’m rather hoping for some Eichmann outcomes).
Fascism, National Socialism are far Left rooted in Marxist Socialism, so the Greens haven’t moved anywhere, just let their mask slip.

I’m looking forward to reading about Hamas leaders, especially the ones who ordered the attack while living in luxury outside Gaza, having strange, untimely deaths, hopefully painfully gruesome ones.
Bboy – Yarp, the Greenies want you to live in a miserable freezing cold mud hut or cubicle and eat bugs when you’re not slurping down your Soylent ration. This has been established.
The Paraphilia is Political with them, also.
