It is all the rage in progressive circles as the Holy Grail of Victimology and the hierarchy that multiple oppression’s of people create.
It is all the rage in progressive circles as the Holy Grail of Global Warming and the hierarchy that multiple oppression’s of the planet create.
Recently the New York Times struck gold with an article that pulls together The Twin Horrors of climate change caused by human activity and intersectional oppression, also caused by the same:
When they arrived in the Americas centuries ago, European colonists brought pestilence and death. Their arrival was so devastating, in fact, that it may have contributed to a period of global cooling, according to a new study.
The research, to be published in the March issue of the journal Quaternary Science Reviews, represents an ambitious attempt to show that, through a series of events, human activity was affecting the climate long before the industrial revolution and global warming.
The authors found that disease and war wiped out 90 percent of the indigenous population in the Americas, or about 55 million people. The earth, they argue, then reclaimed the land that these populations left behind. The new vegetation pulled heat-trapping carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and into the land, contributing to what scientists refer to as the “Little Ice Age.”
Kaboomski!
Evil White Western European Men not only changed the social ecology of North America via the scourge of colonization they also Changed The Climate via global cooling (which is now being undone by global warming.)
It’s the Perfect Unified Field Theory of All That Is Wrong With The World wrapped up into a neat little ball of multiple oppressions.
Or maybe it’s just a buncha hooey being spun as electoral battle-space preparation for Kamala 2020.
