That's bullshit TB, and you know it. For starters, you know perfectly well classical Reds are obsessed with industrial development because they think strictly in proletarian terms. They want to take over the means of production, not abolish them. As for your pointing out some of the more pathological sectors of the environmental movement, that's just your usual tactic of accusing anyone who disagrees with you of all being like the very worst of the end of the spectrum of your opponent's side. You love to highlight the most extreme of your opponents and then claim are typically like that. When you frame the argument that way, of course you sound reasonable and centrist. You've done it on the war, global warming, and every aspect of public policy we've ever debated on. You've claimed the center and accuse everyone else of being an extremist.

If you think I'm an extremist, then heaven help you if people as far left as you are right ever take over.
