ELIMINATIONIST RHETORIC: James Lee is Al Gore is Prince Charles is the Unabomber. “What’s really depressing is that the philosophy expressed in James Lee’s (and the Unabomber’s) manifesto – which is also, incidentally, the philosophy expressed in Al Gore’s The Earth In Balance – is also the philosophy that is taught every day to our children in their schools: the world is fragile; human beings are a blot on the landscape; through our greed and selfishness we make everything worse; really it would be better if we vanished altogether and let all the lovely pure noble animals take over.”
IN MY SUNDAY WASHINGTON EXAMINER COLUMN, I talk about environmentalism, eliminationist rhetoric, and “filthy human babies.” (Bumped.)

VIOLENT ELIMINATIONIST RHETORIC, from Greenpeace. “We know who you are. We know where you live. We know where you work. And we be many, but you be few.” No doubt Frank Rich and Paul Krugman will be comparing them to Nazis any day now . . . .

MORE HATE-FILLED ELIMINATIONIST RHETORIC FROM NEW HAMPSHIRE DEMOCRAT NICK LEVASSEUR: “Hunting neo-conservative Reaganites” as a firearms hobby?
UPDATE: From the comments:
95 percent of Democrats who use the term “neo-con” are just employing it as a generalized term of abuse, like a dimwitted 8 year old who hears a new dirty word from the big kids on the playground but doesn’t really know what it means.
The other 5 percent use it as a polite euphemism for “dirty Jew.”
Pretty much.
ED MORRISSEY ON Bill Maher’s eliminationist rhetoric. (And it’s not Maher’s first offense.)
Well, Maher deserves criticism, but he’s no Paul Krugman.
GLOBAL WARMING SUICIDE PACT: Enviros’ “Eliminationist Rhetoric” claims lives of parents, kids. “Argentines Francisco Lotero, 56, and Miriam Coletti, 23, shot their children before killing themselves after making an apparent suicide pact over fears about global warming.”
UPDATE: Related: Head of ‘Climategate’ research unit admits sending ‘pretty awful emails’ to hide data.
ANOTHER UPDATE: Blaming Al Gore? No.
After a year’s worth of unhinged lefties blaming conservative bloggers, pundits, and activists for every crime spree on the planet, it would be just deserts to blame Al Gore for the alleged global warming-inspired murders reported in the UK Daily Mail today. But count me out of that game. . . . In any case, Al Gore is responsible for enough fraud and misery without overreaching and laying this strange case at his feet.
Leave the hysterical smear-mongering to Frank Rich, Andrew Sullivan, Paul Krugman, and Keith Olbermann.
Well, they’ve had more practice.
FROM THE ENVIRONMENTAL MOVEMENT, eliminationist rhetoric. “Oh, great. Thanks for the warning about cutting back ‘population’ the hard way. Germany.”

UPDATE: Reader Margaret Meigs writes: “When you click on the link there is a big Brooks Brothers ad at the top. Wow! Let’s get dressed up and join Kos on those barricades right now!” DailyKos is Stuff White People Like, so it kind of makes sense, really . . . .
ANOTHER UPDATE: Maybe the Krazy Kos Kidz should be listening to William Galston.
ELIMINATIONIST, DEHUMANIZING RHETORIC from the Brady Campaign’s Paul Helmke.

ANOTHER UPDATE: More here.
MORE: We’re not “really, really angry” at you, Joan. We’re mocking you. Do try to keep up.
MORE EXTREMIST ELIMINATIONIST HATE RHETORIC: “As the mainstream media hyperventilate over what is now regularly being referred to as rightwing hate speak, liberal talk radio host Mike Malloy Friday actually called for conservative talkers Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, and Bill O’Reilly to commit suicide.”

HMMM: America’s Delusional Elite Is Done.
The anti-male and anti-White rhetoric of the new left is extreme. The racial attacks on whites in particular approaches exterminationist propaganda seen only in, e.g., the Hutu against the Tutsi in 1990’s Rwanda.
For anyone who doubts this, consider the following few examples, which are far from complete:
A columnist for the Huffington Post, a major leftist publication, wrote an article titled “Towards a Concept of White Wounding,” apparently calling for racial violence.
The New York Times hired a columnist who had repeated vulgar racial attacks on whites, calling “whiteness” “awful,” whites “only fit to live underground like groveling goblins,” expressed great joy at “being cruel to old white men,” and declared that whites will be “extinct soon.” The Paper of Record stood by her when these attacks were exposed, and only quietly let her go recently when she supported a boycott against her own employer.
Symone Sanders, currently a senior adviser to Joe Biden and previously the national press secretary for Bernie Sanders, mocked a disabled white teenager who was tortured on camera in 2017 by a black mob screaming “Fuck Trump! Fuck white people!” and otherwise called cases of antiwhite political violence “a protest.”
The New York Times—again, hardly an unknown blog—published an opinion column by Michelle Goldberg with the eliminationist title “We Can Replace Them,” ostensibly against “white nationalism,” but in fact directed against a demographic white majority as such, which the author seeks to replace with nonwhites for what she imagines to be political advantage.
Kevin Drum at Mother Jones, a major organ of the Left that pushes the security establishment’s Russia Hoax conspiracy theories, called this summer for “a literal or figurative war” on whites and a “race war” that the DNC must be willing to get “Lincolnesque” about.
Major leftist and establishment media such as Newsweek publish cover stories titled “Is Your Baby Racist”; major publishers promote books titled White Fragility, or The Dying of Whiteness, and CNN—not white nationalist outlets—runs graphics on “The Vanishing White American.”
Again, all this is par for the course these days; as everyone knows, state-funded universities routinely hold “white privilege” seminars and orientation sessions, promoting a concept the plain meaning of which is to dispossess people of property and civil rights based on their biology.

● The World On Fire: Citizens Rebel Against Corruption and Ineptitude.
● Belated Realization: The Old World Order Is in Shambles.
And as Glenn has written, “The problem is that today’s elites aren’t really the better sorts of people. As Richard Fernandez notes, today we have a principal-agent problem. Those happen when the agent (a lawyer, say, or a public official, or a journalist) cuts deals for himself instead of for the benefit of the people he’s representing. Our elites seem to be doing that now — looking after themselves, rather than after the country, with traditional limits on self-dealing having vanished.”
