PhuturePriest Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Why are so many republicans against the environment, and favor industrialization and destruction of ecosystems, and make fun of people who take a moral objection to that? I'm conservative economically, but I am adamantly pro-environment and pro-conservation. People don't consider me a real conservative and think I'm a liberal hippie because I don't favor killing ecosystems for money and believe in climate change (Climate change doesn't mean it's going to get super hot, which is why the polar vortex (something that happens all the time every single year) doesn't disprove it in the slightest).

CrossCuT Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Big rich oil companies that profit off oil sales dont want us to switch to altrnate fuel sources because they will lose money. They pay politicians off to deny it and tell the sheep its all poo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But don't they realize how adversely it would affect the environment if we took all of its resources? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrossCuT Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Also its sad that one idea is always tied to something else. If you believe one conservative thing all of a sudden you have to believe all he other conservative things or else you are called names. Sad day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad day I'm a conservative that doesn't believe in the death penalty, doesn't believe climate change is fake because liberals tend to believe it (Because I guess liberals can never be right?), doesn't believe in mass industrialization, supports legalization of marijuana, supports conservation efforts, doesn't support any of the wars in the Middle East, and thinks Ronald Reagan was capable of error. Obviously, I am in fact a liberal in disguise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about we just discontinue mass industrialization everywhere and call it a day? And I liked because it made me laugh.

Its entirely within everyone rights to look at issues on an individual basis and not just pick one side and go along with everything they say. Unfortunately, in this day and age people just purchase a political party off the shelf and go along with whatever is in the box without allowing themselves to view issues on an individual basis.
