Mourning trees

Please dont take this as a political statement in the everlasting treehuggers vs right wingers thingy here on subsim, I just think its downright hilarious:

Yep.. that's exactly why I prefer to keep hippies out of environmental topics/debates, as their antics totally defeat the purpose, and they utterly derail things.

The annoying thing though is that anyone who cares about the environment and what is happening to the planet gets automatically labeled a hippy in an attempt by certain groups to deflect and ignore some very real problems.

I found that video to be more disturbing then anything else, but I always find extremism, no matter the flavor, disturbing

No more silly than people getting together for prayer vigils.

People express themselves as they see appropriate. They did not seem to be hurting anyone.

I used to send this one out to all my hippy/vegan/liberal/Phish listening/bad art loving friends and even they found it cringeworthy.
