Climate crusaders, those sanctimonious shepherds of the earth, are trading their pious protests for outright carnage as attacks against Tesla vehicles ripple across the country — an orgy of liberal cannibalism that’s as predictable as a vegan toting along his own tofu to a barbecue.
But setting EVs on fire isn’t the only banner of hypocrisy unfurled lately by eco-warriors — whose extremist ideologies increasingly collide with the real world to reveal their ironic outcomes.
This month, officials in the Brazilian city of Belém paved over tens of thousands of acres of protected Amazon rainforest and wetland to build a four-lane, eight-mile-long highway necessary to accommodate the roughly 50,000 climate activists who will descend on the city in November for the UN’s COP30 climate summit.
That’s not all the jet-setting eco zealots will require: The local airport is doubling its capacity, to 14 million passengers; the seaport is being redeveloped to accommodate cruise ships; a 5.3 million square foot sports and entertainment complex is under construction; and a row of hotels is going up along the new “sustainable highway,” as local authorities dub the project.
Across the world, the UK government is moving ahead on plans to bulldoze 4,000 acres of pristine countryside in Dereham and Swaffham to install a solar panel farm, one of several new solar farms under consideration in the gray, rainy little island nation.
(For argument’s sake, a healthy 4,000-acre woodland removes about 18,000 metric tons of carbon from the atmosphere per year and doesn’t require any toxic metals).
Here in the US, California Democrats are gushing over plans to mine lithium from Death Valley National Park — home to 26 endemic species, many critically endangered — as part of the state’s audacious electric vehicle mandate.
During his final week in office, former President Joe Biden, most likely by autopen, pushed through billions in loans to mining companies seeking to operate in California and Nevada.
And now, to add even more duplicity and bedlam to the climate cult community, left-wing domestic terrorists have launched a jihad against Tesla — the company that until, like, five minutes ago was the very face of their utopian green energy future.
Tesla, headed by Elon Musk, not only made electric vehicles popular but cool and practical.
Now, busybody liberal shrills have been caught on video keying Teslas in parking lots; storefronts have been smashed in; charging stations vandalized; and this week a dealership in Las Vegas was set ablaze, all causing Tesla’s stock to plummet.
All this is because of Elon Musk’s political stances supporting free speech, President Trump, and reducing government waste.
The news has been celebrated by Democrat brass. Former VP nominee Tim Walz told a crowd that watching Tesla’s stock fall gives him a “little boost” every day.
Left-wing talk show host Jimmy Kimmel’s audience erupted in cheers when he mentioned the attacks on the cars — and he encouraged more violence.
“Please, don’t ever vandalize Tesla vehicles,” he said on national television with a sinister wink. The crowd went wild. And CNN host Audie Cornish compared shooting, firebombing, and vandalizing Tesla locations to “resistance.”
On March 18, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced an investigation into the attacks, which she called “nothing short of domestic terrorism.” President Trump said they were “an assault on American greatness,” and threatened to “crush these losers.”
Think of all that soup chucked on priceless works of art by climate activists that could have gone to feeding the homeless — it was wasted on a movement that has no coherence, substance, or palatability. Maybe that’s why one-time climate poster child Greta Thunberg has ditched the greenhouse for Gaza.
Even worse, much like the pro-Hamas circus on college campuses, or the frenzied masque of the 2020 George Floyd riots, the goal always seems to have been little more than a choreography of chaos, one engineered by vultures hoping to pick at the wreckage.
And the Democratic party doesn’t care that everyone is catching on to their hollowness.
A recent poll shows their approval ratings at 29%, an all-time low. They’ve been reduced to little more than a peacock preening in a windstorm, oblivious to the feathers flying.
And while they once marched across the stage of climate change to give their party purpose, their grand drama was never scripted around fossil fuels or cradling Mother Earth.
In the end, they worship only the throne of power and act as proxies for no one other than the grinning reflections cast in their gilded mirrors.
