Stimulator-ENDCIVPresmie10676As I type this, leaders from the biggest industrialized nations are meeting in Copenhagen to discuss a possible treaty to diminish worldwide carbon emissions. As reported last month, it is already known that no deal will be reached during these talks. Many scientists say time is running out and others say it’s too late. Meanwhile in Canada, the forces of capitalism and industry are moving full force to extract the last bits of oil from the Alberta tar sands. The insanity of this project perfectly exemplifies Premise 10 from Derrick Jensen’s “Endgame”

    the sooner civilization comes down, the more life will remain afterwards, to support both humans and non-humans.

    What does this statement mean exactly? “comes down” =
    -a lot of people die?
    -our culture changes? (what specifically)
    -way of life?
    -all the above?

    Excellent segment here Franklin! Thanks for giving cred to macdonald stainsby. He has been a tireless campaigner for shutting down the tarsands for the 10 years i’ve known him. I’m sure he’ll feel privileged to appear in END CIV.

    Thank you Franklin, for exposing the insanity that is going on in Alberta.

    Another great video, using Derrick Jensen’s 10th premise.

    Congratulations!

    nazi said the same..most of the culture are insane.. but didnt u showed jews

    im not sure if this will help the earth. social threathen people wont accept being an untermensch , beside anticiv people are knowing the way.

    youre wrong, so far u stell culture to proof ure contents. so far u use videocameras to picture ure beliefs. ure the most insane and on the side to every facist moovement which will be and was on this pplanet.

    the other way would honour the life and honour chidhood.
    Also respect cultures and their diversity.

    i would be good to talk more about the right wing people among anticiv and anarchprimitivist people.

    MMake a step in the right direction.

    …hey guys..dont alert on this shit.

    that so hard…some things will happen of course. but dont get to radical. more will surive than u think they will.

    For european eyes watching this without sound, its realy nice but the title. Is totaly trash. Why should the culture be insane, if u use the videocamera of the culture. Rich europeans think that, but rural or clever european will never go to such stupid right wing close think tanks.

    Some people in anticiv moovement are conected to extrem right wing also to roght wing in europe. and they wanna kill the jews, foreigners, and other people.
