The most dangerous organisation in world history

Noam Chomsky: Donald Trump's election will accelerate global warming and humanity's 'race to disaster'
The US Republican Party is now 'the most dangerous organisation in world history', US academic says

The renowned American linguist and philosopher Noam Chomsky has warned the US Republican party is now “the most dangerous organisation in world history” because of the denial of climate change by President-elect Donald Trump and other leading figures.

Following the US elections, Professor Chomsky said it appeared humans planned to answer what he called “the most important question in their history … by accelerating the race to disaster”.

Mr Trump has already appointed a prominent climate change denier to run his transition team covering the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and other advisers include people with close links to the fossil fuel industry.

He has also pledged to scrap the United States’ ratification of the Paris Agreement on climate change, which President Barack Obama has hailed as “the moment that we finally decided to save our planet”.

Leading climate scientists have expressed dismay and concern about Mr Trump’s election, suggesting it could be an “unmitigated disaster for the planet”.

Speaking to the Truthout website, Professor Chomsky pointed to a report by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), which said the past five years had been the hottest on record and reported rising sea levels, unexpectedly rapid melting of ice and other effects of climate change.

The election on 8 November had given the Republicans total control of the US government and this meant they had now become "the most dangerous organisation in world history”, he said.

“The last phrase may seem outlandish, even outrageous. But is it? The facts suggest otherwise. The party is dedicated to racing as rapidly as possible to destruction of organised human life. There is no historical precedent for such a stand,” Professor Chomsky said.

“It is hard to find words to capture the fact that humans are facing the most important question in their history — whether organised human life will survive in anything like the form we know — and are answering it by accelerating the race to disaster.”

Noam Chomsky: Donald Trump's election will accelerate global warming and humanity's 'race to disaster' | The Independent

The professor is spot on.

in Trump defense, the Paris accord is a pipe dream that everyone, I mean really everyone, is going to violate. It's simply not feasible.

It was mainly an ego and political move by Hollande to "temper" the green electorates in France. They have no intention to bind to it. That's why everyone has signed on it.

The problem with Global Warning is we know so little, and the field is litered with frauds, fake researchers, and lunatics. Almost as bad as the 911 theorists.

Something should be done, but as usual, letting governments doing it is just making things worse. It should be a global citizen initiative, not a government and special interest one.

I think God Chomsky is a bit "emotional" about Trump, even though he is raising valid points.

His lectures on 911 and Iraq and the interesting GW Bush administration was by far his best work, even though some of his arguments were a bit hyperbolic, ala Michael Moore.

maybe the 6 billion people in the world who cook their food over burning charcoal can be persuaded to eat it cold

once upon a time they said the climate deal in Paris was irreversible

then someone says, it would take 5 or 6 yrs to reverse

and now another says it can be reversed in 1 yr..

More or less, yes.

Clearly the most, historically, destructive and negative force upon the world - The Anglo/American Empire [or attempts at it].

A select extermination should be in order.
Comes around to the blind and disconnected.

Would a bounty work

11 million illegals first to deport a thousand gets the Humvee

For maintainance Wall built around 12 feet inside USA so the deportees could build it from the South side, and the snowflakes could paint a mural.

Fortunately Canadians don't need to they realize few below have the IQ to see the benefits of public health service and barring guns from angry morons

There always has been and always will be climate change from ice age to warming period and back to ice age again just a matter of how hot it will get this time round. Possibly hot enough to grow trees in Antarctica and far north Canada where they grew once as shown by the fossil trees that are there now.

Those who are making a fortune from the 'man made climate change' thing are going to need someone to blame when in spite of all that is supposed to be done to stop or reverse it the climate continues to warm.

Personally I'm all for stopping and preventing pollution of any sort and I suppose if this hysteria over climate change can do that then all the better.

Yes the US is the most dangerous organisation on the planet they have proved that by the wars they have started and the death and destruction they have caused and are still causing.
If Trump can do just a little to mitigate that by normalising relations with Russia, stopping giving weapons to rebel groups and stopping the bloodshed in Syria he will have done the world a favor. He cant be worse than what has gone before.

:confused:

For the sake of discussion, lets say climate change is bullcrap. The fact remains that the general health effects of breathing air that contains car exhaust and other hydrocarbon emissions is highly negative. Anybody who has spent even a week in China knows this.

For America, I'm more worried about the possible loosening of regulations on oil exploration and extraction.

Shouldn't we want to avoid more of this (below, Canada's oil sands)?

If you are more worried about that, then act in that. Don't mire yourself in the global warming bs thinking that it will help even if it's wrong.

I'm on person, out of 7+ billion. What do you suggest as an action?

You could take on the worlds most dangerous organisation, 007 style.

If you dig up Vatican files on Greenland you find out that at one time there were approx. 10,000 Viking catholics living there with their own bishop sent out bye the pope. That they had farms with barns, the foundations are still there capable of holding 100 cattle, multiple barns of this size existed. To say its warmer now then then is a bad joke. Retreating glaciers in Italy a decade ago revealed a stone bridge dating back to the roman empire, the romans did not specialize in building bridges under or near glaciers, obviously it was much warmer during the roman empire and the glaciers were much higher up. And that's why Hannibal was able to make what we now consider an impossible march over the alps with elephants. The retreating glaciers revealed paths across the mountains to Switzerland with obvious human usage.

But the lefttard media goes out of its way to stifle any and all of the proof that global warming is a bad joke. Why because its globalization is a key left wing policy and global warming is a huge justification for their activities.

Those who choose to live in cities will always be breathing these emissions but consider the abject stupidity of deliberately breathing pollution into your own lungs, highly negative right.

Do you do it, its called smoking.

You would struggle find a more hysterical and ridiculous statement than that in a North Korean newspaper.
Stuff like this just feed conspiracy theorists, and does not foment rational analysis or the formation of reasonable opinions.

Does the man have no thought as to the effect this would have on his academic reputation? This is a political statement, as well as hyperbole; and it would never get anywhere near passing muster for publication in a serious journal.

There is a really serious double-standard at play here that is quite disturbing, and it evidences a complete collapse in critical thinking by the media - it's the constant urge for clickbait and sensation.

Frankly, he should know better:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manufa..._and_the_Media

In the world we live in today, the "elite" is a distant, authoritarian, globalist, left-leaning establishment - one reeling from defeat, and clutching at straws to try an get to grips with the challenge to its narrative of being the revolt against the establishment - because it is the establishment!

It is the media that is the most dangerous "organisation" in the world today.

It needs actual evidence. If you want to be objective about it, you have to acknowledge the amount of natural disaster and human misery caused by foreign policy decisions and response to natural disasters under Obama.

Climate always changes; the thing that is accelerating is the number of humans on the planet. This doesn't translate into a direct correlation with chemical and energy input into the system, because most of these people are poor, so their impact is in low-level pollution - rubbish heaps, encroachment into eco-systems. Megacities are growing, and that does also have a major input, but it varies from region to region, with policies and attitudes.

If you were being cold about it, you would price up the cost of environmental clean up of a WW3, and compare with the cost of environmental impact of the continuation of the current global economic system, and make a decision as whether it was in the species' interests for some parts of the world to continue with the same populations and cultures. Perhaps there is a middle way, and perhaps this is part of where left-leaning authoritarianism sees a role - as perferring soft managerial tyranny and localised conflict and environmental harm, versus a global conflagration... the risk is whether this approach will lose the ability to control and contain the situation, and end up with a "correction" happening anyway, and a messier, more drawn-out global crisis.
Doves might say the Hawks are taking too big a risk; Hawks might say the Doves are kidding themselves that they are not taking an even bigger risk.

Thanks for another quality response to a well thought-out comment.

IMHO, if the dinosaurs didn't destroy the planet with their 100 million years worth of farting, burping and shitting, there is no way the Republicans will destroy it in 4

I don't smoke. And cities vary tremendously, Asia certainly has a bunch of really bad ones. India and Pakistan have several cities that consistently top the world's worst lists, worse than even China. The worst cities in western europe and america are not even close. Proves proper measures work.
