BBC shows the colors again
Always nice when Gramscian Commies speak openly. They always reveal their true allegiances to the super-rich and tyrants. BBC gave us a beautiful example last week. Now they do it again!
'From our own correspondent' this morning features an essay by Comrade Nick Thorpe.
You missed the orthodox boilerplate, Comrade Nick. Malarial swamps are not merely precious wetlands, they're fragile and endangered and critically important for biodiversity.
Sounds good. Barges are more efficient than trucks and planes. Barges make it possible for ordinary people to have manufacturing jobs and to get consumer goods cheaply. But you can't stand that vision, can you, Comrade Nick?
Aha! Now we get to the core of the question. You want useless super-rich ecotourists to be the sole users of the river. You want dickheads like yourself to gain all the advantage.
Aha again! We see who you admire. You admire the Habsburg princes and the communist elite. You admire yourself, Comrade Nick. You want people like yourself to enjoy the "beauty and purity" of the fragile biodiverse endangered malarial swamps, while peasants, deprived of decent and honorable labor, bow and scrape and await your grudging pennies.
Fucking bastard.
'From our own correspondent' this morning features an essay by Comrade Nick Thorpe.
Plans to tame the river Danube in Croatia so that cargo can continue to be shipped efficiently between countries have raised concerns that the changes could greatly damage precious wetlands and wildlife in the north-east of the country.
You missed the orthodox boilerplate, Comrade Nick. Malarial swamps are not merely precious wetlands, they're fragile and endangered and critically important for biodiversity.
But now the Croatian Inland Waterway Agency wants to turn its banks into embankments ... and straighten its course. To discipline the river, to stop it daydreaming. On the opposite bank, the Serbian authorities have similar ideas and are waiting to see the fate of the Croatian project.
Sounds good. Barges are more efficient than trucks and planes. Barges make it possible for ordinary people to have manufacturing jobs and to get consumer goods cheaply. But you can't stand that vision, can you, Comrade Nick?
Give us one - ideally two - lanes of motorway down the middle of the Danube, argue the barge boys. And the only way to do that is to "complete" river-regulation work which began in the 19th Century.
Stop meddling, reply the environmentalists. Allow the river to swell from March to August ... Let the floodplains absorb the floods, clean the nutrients from the waters, allow fish to spawn, attract birds to feed on the fish, and flocks of tourists to admire them.
Aha! Now we get to the core of the question. You want useless super-rich ecotourists to be the sole users of the river. You want dickheads like yourself to gain all the advantage.
This was once the jealously-guarded preserve of the hunters and foresters, explains Dinko Pesic, an environmentalist from nearby Osijek. Habsburg princes and then the communist elite hunted wild boar and red deer to their bloodthirsty hearts' content.
Aha again! We see who you admire. You admire the Habsburg princes and the communist elite. You admire yourself, Comrade Nick. You want people like yourself to enjoy the "beauty and purity" of the fragile biodiverse endangered malarial swamps, while peasants, deprived of decent and honorable labor, bow and scrape and await your grudging pennies.
Fucking bastard.
