I've posted several times on Global Warming threads that one of the major branches of the true GW believers is 'De-Developers'. Too help define them I always say "think Ted Kascinsky".

These are not scientists concerned about grants. These are not Marxists. These are people who are profoundly convinced that man should live in a primitive state like the rest of creation. Or, not live at all.

Well, here is a modern example of a De-Developer:

We must end civilization to stop Global Warming

Btw, Kaczinsky hates liberals. Read his Manifesto. It's interesting.

I am not on board with the climate change dorks, but I am definitely in the Malthusian camp on peak oil/finite fossil energy source stuff and think the infinite growth paradigm is going to die within 50 years. So, IMO, talking about this is mature, but you tend to get labeled some nazi depopulation agenda guy when you do.

To be fair, Al Gore just wants more of your money.

That's always been his end game. He couldn't give a shite about the environment.

I think there is merit with the idea all men should stay in contact with the basics of their survival, but it's problematic to bridge the gap between that world and metropolitan America. Some might think they could work on Wall St, and then go home to slaughter a goat in their apartment, but that practice has become increasingly difficult.

The obvious answer is for Mother Gaia to eradicate the human infestation so that she can return to her proper temperature.

I don't know what a "de-developer" is but if you have the correct definition: "people who are profoundly convinced that man should live in a primitive state like the rest of creation" that's not what this guy is saying. He's saying we're all toast so might as well make it better for people in the post-human world.

They guy may be a kook but not the kind of kook you're suggesting.
