Default The Revelation of Greta: no heavens behind the heavens

Although we are all guilty, there are major culprits. The environmental crisis appears in the perspective of climate savers as a crisis of market-driven economics, suggesting an anti-capitalist thrust, because it is the industrial societies of the North, so the certainty, which are largely responsible for the destruction of nature. While environmental problems can be easily reduced to the friend-to-foe ratio, the treatment - better: non-treatment - of population growth by the „rebel camp“ shows that no opponent can be fixed here to whom one can base his moral appeals.
In the notion of climate saviors, „nature“ somehow replaces the proletariat: it is suppressed, exploited, destroyed. Since the Western market economy is considered to be a major cause, we find here the break-in point for a centralist, quasi-socialist policy, for example about environmental norms and their monitoring (which makes sense at first), could install a kind of ecodicture, planning and planning requires a controlling state. To save humanity, totalitarian visions are uttered without any shame. Thus, Fridays for Future calls for a global, total mobilization of resources to rescue, to an extent „similar to wartime“.
It is striking that the intersection between the climate hysterics and the no-border fraction is practically 100 percent. Characteristic of these movements are their maximum demands, which do not reveal an empirical limitation or any reference to reality. This is the motto of the „Extinction Rebellion“ because also succinctly: „Riot or extinction.“ That these movements as well as the demands for an unlimited immigration, especially in Germany so many believing followers, is no coincidence (see mine Essay „German Hysteria“ on the Axis). Idealism, hypermorality, perfection, exaggeration and adherence to principles are downright striking unique selling points, even to their own self-destruction. So what could be more appropriate than to raise the issue of universal human rights or „climate rescue“ to a principle that must be applied in any case, whatever the cost? In this respect, the „climate refugee“ is the ideal synthesis of two self-convergent discourses.
