Poem
Looking ’round it is sad to say, we who think that we’re so advanced, that cults are growing everywhere, it’s really getting out of hand. They make people think insane things, out of touch with reality, leave them unfit to face the world, and all of its uncertainties. It may be that nothing will work but giving them all a hard jolt, to break the veil of lies they’ve built, to free them of these brutal cults. You see the ones who worship Earth, claim that the world is gonna end, that humans are of no great worth, that fish are just the same as men. Endlessly say, ‘It’s getting warm,’ and think that it’s all humans fault, point out the sun, ocean cycles, ice age mechanics, they just balk, and demand that we don’t heat our homes, demand that we travel nowhere, treat oil like it is Satan, his carbon going everywhere… You point to glaciers that still grow, that carbon levels off quickly, do they stop and examine it? No, the shout like its blasphemy. You note that volcanos dwarf us in spewing carbon they so fear, the oceans too release much more, holes in the theory do appear, Does this cause them to stop and think if science is what they value? No, they just scream out, ‘Denier!’ then go online to cancel you. Ignore the people that would starve if oil went away right now, forget the tech that they all use would end if plastics weren’t allowed. It never was science to them, just a cheap religion-substitute, find meaning without doing work, claim you’re moral and appear good. They’d take us back into the caves, render our species void and null, this pseudo-science Earth worship is just rebranded pagan cults. CONTINUES IN PART II
