The Guardian’s Susanna Rustin is very much troubled by thoughts of impending catastrophe and is keen for your routine shopping – for groceries and maybe a pair of shoes – to be replaced, “painlessly,” with forms of “artistic expression and creativity.” Like dance lessons.
It would, of course, be “a reordering of society.”
Replace your grocery shopping. Dance your way to starvation!
OK.
Women control about 80 percent of the consumption in a typical developed economy. They earn only a small fraction of it honestly. (Women like Kate are the exception.)
Most of the developed world’s problems would be solved tomorrow morning if men refused to pay for any more garbage their women didn’t need and demanded that women learn to keep house and cook palatable and nutritious food themselves, instead of palming the job off on some trained savage.
That done, men and women could live comfortably on a fifth of what they do now—and men could enjoy workweeks to match.
Shoulda Married an Italian.
Problem solved.
And yer bit about women not earning their keep….? sorry, but in today’s world that’s simply BS. (Am assuming you are a single male who just happened to teleport here from 1834.?)
Are you “A Canadian” hiding under a new fake name? UnMe is on his third that I know of.
unme?
the bot?
the unmebot?
technology evolves . . . . . . .
Exactly my thought. “Is that you, A Canadian?”
Is there any doubt?
So that’s what Prinz Dummkopf was trying to do in India: dance his way to fighting “climate change”…..
Now here’s an idea of how The Guardian (aka The Hell Mouth) can go ‘green’. Use this Rustin’ person to do interpretative dance as a means of communication. That way many trees will not have died in the vain.
I think this has been done somewhere before. http://footage.framepool.com/en/shot/339605229-vladimir-lenin-josef-stalin-accordion-communism

On a different topic on this great site, one of our usual commenters said that a country did not need to extract resources, neither produce or manufacture anything. Is that how we are supposed to pay foreign countries that would obviously have to supply all our needs? I can’t see foreign producers happy with us paying them with a mime performance or an interpretive dance though.
From Rustin’s Guardian article: “[So] many of the pleasures that we take for granted in the west, and that are desired by billions of people who do not yet have them, are so carbon-intensive…”
Now there’s an interesting line. She’s effectively saying that billions of people in the world must not aspire to improve their circumstances in order to save the planet.
It probably hasn’t even occurred to her that any global crusade against climate change would need all nations on board* and thus needs those “billions of people” to accept their lot.
* Precisely why it’s a nonsense of course: by what authority exactly do you tell any sovereign state what measures it must take and what it must not do? The globalist mentality simply never comes to grip with this reality.
