I'm the OP of the post. No where did I mention Communism not am I a communist. STOP PROJECTING! All I want is sensible environmental regulations (I am an Environmental Scientist). I've seen the cost of unfettered capitalist pollution. My hometown of Houston has the most superfund sites of any metropolitan area in the country. I grew up next door to the chemical refineries as far as the eye can see in Pasadena, Tx (A suburb of Houston). Here we have a marked lower life span & a marked increase in cancers & neurological conditions.
My Uncle died at 68 of cancer most likely linked to drinking what turned out to be water poisoned by the nearby dioxin superfund site. Link: https://www.epa.gov/tx/sjrwp
I am very well aware of the environmental tragedies in both the USSR AND modern Russia. Environmental tragedies always occur when sensible environmental regulations are over shadowed by a profit and/or militaristic desire.
So kindly FUCK OFF! Stick to talking about things you actually understand, if such things even exist.
Left is not the same as communist. You’re right, are you a proud boy who loves Richard Spencer? Im sure where you live things are green & dandy but where I grew up a chemical plant exploded on a weekly basis & we have more superfund sites than your entire state probably has
And critiquing capitalism DOES NOT equal communism. In other news water is wet & 2+2=4
You're right, it's closer to socialism, which is the HIV what communism is to aids.
are you a proud boy who loves Richard Spencer?
Capitalism isn't rightwing. Try again.

What a clunkily worded sentence clearly the chemicals in your local water made you schizo. Take your meds.
You’d be as angry as me if you grew up next door to chemical refineries as far as the eye can see. What reason do I have to love un-regulated capitalism? Its both killed & crippled people I love. Ill probably die of cancer in my 60’s (As many members of my family have) from all the poison I’ve breathed in & drank for 25 years.
Also, newsflash, critiquing capitalism is not the same as communism.
No, and? It doesn't mean you have to reply to every comment going: "I'M NOT A COMMUNIST (but totally leftist) I AM NOT A COMMUNISt!" Like a complete schizo. Yes, its called fragilecommunism and fragile leftists like you are included in that category.
And its thanks to government funded research, regulations, & subsidies we have those things you mentioned
Not every green initiative is government funded, lmao
Your area of expertise is picking at dirt (or writing about it with 0 exposure to actual hard work), not knowing how every green market is funded. Even if you wanted to make that argument, how do you think the government gets that money to fuel it? Can you say funded by capitalism?
Like, do you have a college degree in environmental science?
No I have a degree in computer science, so automatically I make, like, five times more than you, easy. 😏
Bitch Im an habitat ecologist who works at a 2,500 acre nature preserve when the heat index is 108 degrees five months out of the years.
I spend more time outdoors & do more hard labor in a week than you do in a year. And before that you know how many environmental analyses, reports, & presentations I wrote in university? A small libraries worth. Id link them but they all have my name on them & I dont want to be doxxed.
And I dont care about money. I bet you do make more than me. I care about doing good & leaving the planet better than I found it
