Tammy Bruce: Humanity is a Scourge That Should Be Wiped Out

Humanity is a Scourge That Should Be Wiped Out

The Left's Ultimate Agenda

I have been arguing for years now that the destruction of humanity, literally, is the actual agenda, conscious and unconscious, of Leftists worldwide. They have become progressively ugly and hateful politically and otherwise because they hate themselves and consequently project that hate, as Malignant Narcissists do, back onto humanity as a whole. Their frustration at the rejection of their agenda (history at least has taught us something) that they bother less and less with sugar-coating their nihilistic rage.

Leftists, manifest as radical conservationists, feminists, animal rights extremists or political hacks, all base their politics in how evil Man. In other words, that humanity is the overriding problem. I note in my new book, The New American Revolution, that every act of state-based mass-murder and genocide has been perpetrated by leftist and fascist governments. Why? Because historically the Leftist worldview has always been the same because it's rooted in the same self-loathing leftist politics.

Their politics alone speak to this agenda to demonize Man, while their MalNarness has become more and more obvious over the years. Now, as the Left becomes more and more desperate, we've all seen their ugliness emerge with fewer control, fewer concerns about masking their true intentions.

If any of you doubt this thesis, courtesy of Drudge, we have another moonbat who has decided to make clear the genocidal, nihilistic Leftist agenda.

Via the Citizen Scientist

But there was a gravely disturbing side to that otherwise scientifically significant meeting, for I watched in amazement as a few hundred members of the Texas Academy of Science rose to their feet and gave a standing ovation to a speech that enthusiastically advocated the elimination of 90 percent of Earth's population by airborne Ebola. The speech was given by Dr. Eric R. Pianka (Fig. 1), the University of Texas evolutionary ecologist and lizard expert who the Academy named the 2006 Distinguished Texas Scientist.

[...]

Professor Pianka said the Earth as we know it will not survive without drastic measures. Then, and without presenting any data to justify this number, he asserted that the only feasible solution to saving the Earth is to reduce the population to 10 percent of the present number. [...]

After praising the Ebola virus for its efficiency at killing, Pianka paused, leaned over the lectern, looked at us and carefully said, “We've got airborne 90 percent mortality in humans. Killing humans. Think about that.”

And that's only a smattering of the report. Please read the whole thing. While you may be inclined to dismiss this man as one lunatic who is not taken seriously, an important part of the article describes how the audience reacted at 109th meeting of the Texas Academy of Science--they gave him a standing ovation.

Hasn't liberalism wiped out our humanity already?

Posted by: ahwatukeejohn at April 3, 2006 09:22 AM

I can feel the evil just reading that! I can't imagine being there at that conference. I would've run straight out of the room and got the hell out of town.

Ok the obvious question is, at what point in his life did he either teach or was taught in Colorado? ;)

What a lunatic. Perhaps if the good doctor signed up for the first trial he would do as much good for humanity as the outrageous scheme he proposes.

Man has messed up a lot of things but man has learned from his mistakes and has corrected many of them.

Man shot almost all the buffalo and man has, with goodness in his heart, seen fit to remedy the situation. Man killed off nearly all the aligators (probably never as many as we thought) but by mans' actions they are today as numerous as they have ever been. Here in Indiana, deer were extinct in the 1930s. Today there are so many deer that in Indiana, we harvest over 100,000 per year which only serves to keep their number in check and provides better forage for those who survive. There are more deer in Indiana today than when Christopher Columbus discovered America.

Man isn't so bad...he's just not perfect. I don't think exterminating imperfect things has any basis in morality, philosophy, or science. What a nut!

Did this guy help write the screenplay for "12 Monkeys"?

They continue to talk about the deforestation of North America as a fact, even though we have more forested land now than during the American Revolution.

What these people don't understand is that humankind is a PART OF nature, not OUTSIDE OF nature.

Evil is alive and well and making speeches in Texas. Tammy, you have hit the nail on the head yet again . This is what the left is all about and they are not afraid or ashamed to come out and proclaim this deadly agenda. What puzzles me beyond belief is that the room gave this 300 lb. blow toad a standing ovation. Did everybody drop acid before the speech ? Do all those people really feel their lives are pointless, useless and worthless to the point we annihilate ourselvs ? What a sad group of people. I feel sorry for any children they may have, what an example they must show them. If Doctor ( doctor my ass ) Pianka is so unhappy with life there are plenty of bridges to take a flying leap off of.

Posted by: Carpediem at April 3, 2006 01:07 PM

I totally agree with Pianka, the world would be a better place without so many people.

Now, if he and his nilhistic ilk would all kindly chew on the barrel and spare us their continued lunacy, the world can be that better place.

I am sure, given the time that professors have to think deep thoughts, that those who advocate and applaud the adovacy of the destruction of human beings, have considered who would be destroyed. You can bet it won't be the technologically advanced. But it will be those in poor, undeveloped countries with large populations, almost all of whom are various shades darker than the professors who would cull humanity. Aren't these professors rascists of the vile Woodrow Wilson and Margaret Sanger type?

Posted by: St. Thor at April 3, 2006 03:01 PM

The media did not report that Dr. Pianka punctuated his remarks periodically by clearing his throat and stating "Of course, present company excepted."

Posted by: Ray Zacek at April 3, 2006 03:06 PM

Somewhere, behind Professor Pianka's mad ranting, there is an important question. There are legitimate concerns about overpopulation and depletion of essential resources and destruction of ecosystems. The view of Pianka is that we have mistreated our toy and deserve to have it taken from us. Yes, he has a point -- IF you accede to his implicit premise, which is that the Earth is not here for Mankind. This is the key question: Why is the Earth here, and why is Man here? It is a fundamental Judeo-Christian tenet that the Earth is indeed here for us to work and to tame, with the understanding that we are to act as stewards of the planet. In other words, the religious person also has an obligation to care for the Earth -- not because the Earth and the animals deserve it, but because God has commanded it be so. The religious person regards Earth without Man as a ludicrous concept, like a car without anyone to drive it. This is in stark contrast to Professor Pianka, who tells us, "The biggest enemy we face is anthropocentrism, the common attitude that everything on this Earth was put here for [human] use." In my college days, I had more sympathy to people like Pianka. They make a certain amount of sense, in a world where the MSM constantly harangues us with the bad news of the day -- oil and resources running short, imminent nuclear war, hatred run amuck, etc. We wait for the other shoe to drop, and ugly thoughts creep into our heads: Just get it over with. Let's have the disaster, the Ebola, whatever. Anything is better than waiting for the cataclysm, day after day after day, knowing we're doomed and it's only a matter of time. At this point in my life, there are a couple of factors that make it easier for me to put Pianka in his place. One is that I've been listening to the doomsayers for decades, and their dire warnings haven't come to pass. I'm still nervous, and it's always possible that tomorrow is the day of the catastrophe. But we've bumbled along somehow, and maybe we'll manage to continue. I certainly didn't solve any problems by wearing my ZPG backpack in college. Another factor is a commonsense question raised by a radio pundit. Ask this of yourself: In contemplating our own lives and our knowledge of history, what are the causes of the calamities we have faced, either individually or collectively? Are our problems caused by 1) Acts of God, or 2) Ecological catastrophe or 3) Human evil? And when you look at it that way, it's pretty damned obvious that the problems we face aren't the *quantity* of people so much as the *quality* of people. It's the evil that brings us down, not the numbers. And that's the big answer to the Piankas, or for that matter to the Al Gores who tell us that the biggest problem Mankind faces is the automobile engine. It's more important that we be better, rather than fewer. (Although I do feel, as a side issue, that California is getting too damn crowded -- but that's another topic.) Is it narcissistic to claim that, yes, it really is about us? Well, if this be anthropocentrism, then let us make the most of it.

I'm betting that the good Dr. Pianka, like bin Laden and al-Zarkawi, is quite willing to counsel others to be the ones who leave this life, but not go voluntarily himself. Dr. Kevorkian II is alive and well in Texas, I see.

Posted by: Bachbone at April 3, 2006 06:33 PM

This reads like the final scenes from the C.S. Lewis novel "That Hideous Strength"...I can almost hear them saying: Yeah, but we're doing it all for humanity

Posted by: Jauhara Al-Kafirah at April 3, 2006 08:08 PM

Well, once again Talkin Horse says everthing I want to say but am not smart enough to put into words. I can't add to what Talkin Horse said but just my reaction was, so this professor gets what he wants and all these people die, then the earth goes on with humans back to the Stone Age, then 5 billion years from now, the Sun supernovas and the Earth is gone.

So for what? All the animals and plants that they wanted to save will be just as gone as all the humans and everything they wanted for the Earth will be just as dead as well.

But at this point, we humans seem to trying to figure something out that is differnt from a pointless ending. Do you know what I mean? It's really frustrating for me to not be able to say it better than that.

It's just that, I see the reality of life, and I see that the rule seems to be death and destruction, but still humans strive against that, and I think there has to be a reason for that.

There are more scaries out there than any of us dare think.
The Pianka case is the first mention of it in the media that I know of. However, I've had a couple of unfortunate experiences of discussing environmental issues with people who have expressed they're desire for the "ultimate solution". After getting further explanation of what they were actually talking about, I've had to excuse myself. Yes, they were serious.

Posted by: tucsondon at April 3, 2006 10:07 PM

Aw, shucks, Prah Qwan, you'll give me a swelled head, and then I'll get tongue-tied and make a fool of myself. Believe me, it happens! But thanks for the encouragement. Anyway, the issues you're wrestling with about the inherent futility of our physical existence are obvious enough -- once you start to think about them, that is. But our secular culture tries to push us into an orientation where we simply don't think about that stuff. Like so many of us, I got through my entire formal education with no understanding whatsoever of western religious philosophy, nor did I possess any sense that anything was missing from my repertoire of knowledge. Who needs all that stuff that goes on in churches and synagogues? We seem to be getting along just fine without it. Or so I thought. But there was some unhappiness nibbling at the edges of my consciousness, and I couldn't quite put my finger on where the problem was. Finally, later in life, I happened to come across some writings that helped clarify my thinking. One example is Leo Tolstoy's A Confession, in which the great writer autobiographically describes his own crisis of faith. He realized that his depression and suicidal inclinations were the result of his intellectual realization of the futility of life. And thus he intellectually came to comprehend the need for a transcendental philosophy; that is, a philosophy that is meaningful even in the face of the physical destruction of the universe. (And, as a quick aside, I'll add the qualification that this transcendental philosophy be life-affirming; contrast this against the radical Islamist's love of death, which is certainly transcendental, but it brings more evil into the world.) There are many pathways that inspire us to seek God, and this is a particularly rational one. And once we've reached this realization, it seems obvious enough in retrospect, doesn't it? But this is a thing we've got to find on our own, often slowly and clumsily, because our culture is going to hide the hints as much as it can. Perhaps this wasn't hidden in the old days, when your walk through town would take you by the graveyard in which your forefathers were buried. And you'd read the tombstones as you passed, and maybe see something like this:

    Beware ye people passing by,
    As you are now, so once was I,
    And as I am now, so must you be,
    Prepare for death and follow me.

...and you'd shiver, and go home that night to a troubled sleep. But your mind would be racing with those questions that one must confront if one is to accept the burden of humanity. I don't want to overly romanticize the "good old days", with their heavy burdens of diseases and superstitions and other mental and physical afflictions that we have mastered in this modern era. (Thank God for hot showers and a soft bed without lice!) But perhaps the previous eras also had important insights that we've let slip away.

Posted by: Talkin Horse at April 3, 2006 10:46 PM

Dr Pianka needn't worry excessively, for if population grows too out-of-bounds, Mother Nature knows how to handle the issue (GRIN).

Malthus has so far been proved wrong, but eventually he might get his revenge. The problem with a doubling of population every 30 years or so... To keep the same standard of living, you have to build another New York, another every little town, double the road system, double the water/sewer system, double crop production, double energy production and manufacturing, double everything. That's a lot of building to do every 30 years, just to 'stay in the same place'.

IMO, a good sustainable USA population would be in the 100 million mark-- plenty of elbow room. Not necessarily for the furry critters, but for the humans. Everytime elbow room is reduced, necessarily so must personal freedom be reduced. A first-world lower birthrate would reach that target population soon enough.

But many wise men (sic) claim that we must import millions of immigrants, because USA isn't making enough babies, and there won't be enough young folks to keep the social security pyramid scheme from collapsing. Its difficult to see how the population can gradually fall if we must pump it up just to balance the Fed's social security budget.

It was tough to decide on a category for this one since it doesn't exactly fit in with the current discussions regarding "malignant narcissism", but once you read this, I think that all will agree that it fits the bill:

This sort of figures from this great Mom.

She didn't want him as a son so why should we expect any else to want him.

Thought this might just interest some of y'all.. I think it's noteworthy!

Obviously, it's a picture in a cemetery. What cemetery and whose grave?
Yes, it's sadly the grave of Casey Sheehan. After two years, and a DoD payment of $250,000 to the "Peace Mom", she has not had the time or bothered to have a headstone placed on this young hero's grave. And, she doesn't even have to pay for one, the DoD will provide one:

"The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) furnishes upon request, at no charge to the applicant, a government headstone or marker for the grave of any deceased eligible veteran in any cemetery around the world. For all deaths occurring before September 11, 2001, the VA may provide a headstone or marker only for graves that are not marked with a private headstone.

Flat markers in granite, marble, and bronze and upright headstones in granite and marble are available. The style chosen must be consistent with existing monuments at the place of burial. Niche markers are also available to mark columbaria used for internment of cremated remains."

She can find time to protest on at least 3 continents, get arrested various times, go on vacation in Hawaii, have photo ops with the Marxists in Venezuela but can't seem to find the time to properly mark her son's grave.

Talkin Horse:

Your ability to use the alphabetical keyboard characters to communicate you often profound and valuable thought processes cannot be denied. Your lack of use of the carriage return key is often enough to make my eyes bleed. =)

I have little to add here except that one of the reasons that ebola hasn't spread faster than it has is because of it's incredibly fast kill rate. The ebola virus as the "savior of the planet" is an unlikey scenario in any event. Also, a 90% kill rate in poverty stricken, and densely populated, Africa would not likely translate to the developed world.

I do believe that when human population truly does become "larger than it should be" that the very nature of the problem will be it's solution. If we really do consume all the planets resources like everyone says we are doing now, we will self limit by starving ourselves back to a more normative state, or a disease will take advantage of the dense population, either way all the hot air debate in the world won't make a difference.

Did this teacher do his math? Have the lucky 10 percenters been notified yet? Is he even sure that he will be among the survivors? Perhaps he should have been certain that he was one of the top 10 before he advocated the doom for the low-life 90 percenters.

Hello Tammy,
Read about this 'Dr Doom' character a couple of days ago. I notice that the web page article is dated 31 March 06, and it occured to me that it might be an April Fools hoax. At least, I would like to believe it is. However, knowing how fruity the left is these days....

Can you verify that this story really is true?

Thanks,
Rex.

[You can Google Pianka's name and see the follow up. This has also been covered a great deal in Texas media. Why it has not made more MSM coverage is obvious--it exposes the Left for th elunatic finge that it is.--ed.]
