From The Daily Sceptic<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

BY\u00a0STEVEN TUCKER<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once upon a time, linking climate change directly back to homosexuality was almost enough to get you sectioned. Remember 10 years ago, during the floods of 2014, when UKIP local councillor David Silvester<\/a> was widely mocked after writing a letter to then-PM David Cameron, warning that the bad weather of the day was due to Dismal Dave\u2019s acting \u201carrogantly against the Gospel\u201d by planning to legalise gay marriage, thereby angering God Almighty and causing Him to unleash \u201cstorms, disease, pestilence and war\u201d upon us all?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, the situation is kind of the reverse, and we are now exhorted to propitiate the angry climate-gods after all \u2013 otherwise they will punish those homosexuals who walk amongst us with terrible deluges and inundations of a new kind, as shown by the Daily Sceptic<\/em> reporting<\/a> last week on a quite pathetic story<\/a> in the Independent<\/em>, headlined \u2018How climate change is hitting vulnerable Indonesian trans sex workers\u2019. As the DS<\/em> wrote, \u201cStreet-walking in a Muslim majority country undoubtedly has perils\u201d, but bad weather is not chief amongst them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rain of Terror<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Independent<\/em>, the problem was that \u201cthe rainy season was lasting longer\u201d and \u201cwinds were stronger\u201d, causing clients to stay nice and dry at home and use prostitutes there instead. Even worse, 72% of transsexual escorts in the affected region \u201chad increased expenses\u201d when it rained \u2013 how much do umbrellas cost in Java these days? Therefore, it was argued, \u201cclimate change makes the vulnerable even more vulnerable\u201d. But does it really? If you bother to read the whole report beyond its absolutely mental headline, you will see that most of the ladyboys involved actually enjoyed a, um, happy ending.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The particular transgender street-walkers interviewed for the piece by a brave journalist who sidled up to them after dark armed with a fistful of tourist dollars whilst whispering the words \u201cit\u2019s okay, I just want to talk\u201d, all ended up in plum jobs once they had been forced off the pavements by an amazing extra 55mm of precipitation per annum \u2013 or, at least, plum jobs by comparison to the alternative employment prospect of selling their bodies to random all-comers on street-corners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One became a singer with a transgender arts group, for whose associated theatre company he now runs a social media channel. Another got a place on a special entrepreneurship training programme aimed at \u201cempowering transgender women\u201d, following which he was able to set up his own small business, selling both home-made cakes and home-made smells re-labelled as \u2018perfumes\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, if climate change really did force these former harlots off the streets (which it obviously didn\u2019t \u2013 the last time heavy rain truly ended prostitution was during the happy, sin-cleansing days of Noah), then it forced them off the streets and into much better, safer, better-paid and more stable jobs \u2013 so surely the Independent<\/em>\u2019s headline should actually have been \u2018How climate change is helping <\/em>vulnerable Indonesian trans sex workers\u2019, not \u201chitting<\/em>\u201d them?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Intersection 28<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why are the mainstream media suddenly desperate to begin spuriously linking climate change back to various ostensibly unrelated woke issues like transgenderism and prostitutes\u2019 rights? It is all part of the modish neo-Marxist doctrine of \u2018intersectionality\u2019, which holds that, because capitalism, white privilege, patriarchy and homophobia all purportedly link together into one gigantic matrix of self-reinforcing oppression. So this fact (if \u2018fact\u2019 it really be) can likewise be combatted by highlighting and promoting the interlinked, intersectional potential nodes of minoritarian resistance against this very same nefarious power-matrix \u2013 blacks, Muslims, gays, feminists, rain-sodden transsexual Indonesian prostitutes, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If it can be shown that climate change \u2013 caused by evil, white male-led Western capitalism \u2013 disproportionately affects, say, blind Taiwanese genderqueer midgets on wheels or something, then this finding can cynically be leveraged in order to place profound moral pressure upon our pathetic, liberal guilt-ridden, polluting institutions, industries and governments to systematically dismantle themselves wholesale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other words, instead of rebutting critics of Net Zero along rational, policy-based lines \u2013 which is often rather hard to do, as the whole policy of Net Zero is thoroughly irrational in the first place \u2013 professional Greentards can instead spare themselves the time and effort and just shout \u201cRacist!\u201d, \u201cWhore-Hater!\u201d or \u201cTransphobe!\u201d at their opponents thereby to shut them up immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The logical conclusion of such trends culminates in the following recent\u00a0online PR meme<\/a>, spread jointly by the U.S. conservationist group Oregon Wild and someone named The Intersectional Environmentalist, which I promise is genuine and not a spoof starring\u00a0Keith Lemon<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Less \u2018Save the Trees\u2019, more \u2018Save the Trannies\u2019. I didn\u2019t realise that even some dryads were now \u2018women with penises\u2019 too these days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This other\u00a0twin meme<\/a>, meanwhile, strongly implies transsexuals are an endangered hairy American forest-species, like Bigfoot:<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Like the famous old 1960s Patterson-Gimlin Film<\/a> footage of Bigfoot, however, I think that\u2019s pretty obviously just a man dressed in a suit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Absolute Intersection of Insanity<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who is this meme-spreading \u2018Intersectional Environmentalist\u2019, with the emphasis upon those final three syllables? It is none other than a professional Third Sector complainer named Leah Thomas, a young American lady who grumbles that, back \u201cin 2017, I was the only Black person [or even \u201cblack person\u201d] in my graduating class to receive an environmental science degree\u201d. Because of this sad racial isolation, says Leah, \u201cat times, I felt the pressure to silence parts of my racial identity\u201d (translation: not to spend every waking moment of my life shouting abuse at white people). Then, however, 2020 and the sudden environmental extinction of George Floyd came along, at which point silencing Ms. Thomas about the colour of her skin became absolutely impossible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn June 2020,\u201d Leah told readers of Marie Claire<\/em><\/a> magazine (it\u2019s where the cool girls go to get all<\/em> their latest peer-reviewed climate-data analysis), \u201cas the Black Lives Matter movement reached global proportions, many of my environmental peers remained silent. I was frustrated. When I asked how it was possible that environmentalists and conservationists could advocate for the protection of even the smallest of species, but not Black lives or endangered people, I was met with confusion.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I bet you were. What the hell does saving the narrow-ridged finless porpoise from extinction have to do with the death of George Floyd? Absolutely nothing, you may have reasonably thought: until, that is, the magic word \u2018intersectionality\u2019 is introduced into the mix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Frustrated at her scientific colleagues\u2019 inability to understand or appreciate her profoundly unscientific theories, Leah Thomas proudly \u201ccoined the term \u2018Intersectional Environmentalism\u2019\u201d \u2013 hardly an \u2018achievement\u2019, one may have thought, it\u2019s literally just putting the word \u2018Intersectional\u2019 in front of any given noun. Nonetheless, the term went viral online, and Leah somehow got a book deal out of it. Imaginatively, it is called The Intersectional Environmentalist<\/em><\/a>, and has a twee little picture of a rainbow on the front, whether LGBT or rainfall-related in its nature, I do not know. Probably both \u2013 it\u2019s about intersectionality, after all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leah even now has her own charitable non-profit propaganda-type organisation, which pushes<\/a> the utterly fatuous line that biodiversity and political diversity go hand in hand: \u201cThe Earth and its eco-systems thrive on diversity and so does climate action.\u201d Her own particular evolutionary niche in the current political eco-system of the West, I think, is best summed up by the single word \u2018parasite\u2019.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The basic modus operandi<\/em> of Thomas\u2019s creed \u2013 later taken up by the Independent<\/em> as regards water-allergic Indonesian ladyboys \u2013 is as follows. Take any give piece of climate-related news. Then pick any given \u2018vulnerable\u2019 minority group. Now link the two, no matter how tenuously, and claim they will automatically be the worst affected \u2013 e.g. floods in Bangladesh will naturally impact local 35 stone comatose quadriplegics worst of all, because they can\u2019t swim very well. Then, bung the key Newspeak word \u2018Intersectional\u2019 somewhere into your argument, and Bob\u2019s your uncle \u2013 an easy front-page on Marie Claire<\/em>\/The Independent<\/em>\/Pravda\/Asian Babes<\/em>, a job well done!    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Catrina and the Rising Waves<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you prefer to make the front page of Pink News<\/em>, however, your chosen intersectional group of climate-euthanised pseudo-victims will, of course, have to be innately queer in nature, as ably demonstrated by the Scottish branch of Friends of the Earth. In a special essay called \u2018Why Climate Change is an LGBTQ+ Issue<\/a>\u2019, written to mark annual Homo History Month, Catrina Randall, a queer-friendly voice for Friends of the Earth Scotland, reverently explained how:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Through climate justice, we recognise that the roots of climate change are tied up with the roots of multiple oppressions. Capitalism and colonialism fuel climate change, but are also a part of LGBTQ+ oppression\u2026 Anti-capitalism has long been important to many in the fight for queer liberation. We recognise that capitalism rewards conformity and punishes diversity [wholly unlike Communism, obviously]. It threatens diversity of gender and sexuality in the same way it threatens biodiversity in its quest for profit. Fighting capitalism and colonialism, both present day and the legacy, is key to fighting climate change, but it\u2019s also a key part of queer liberation. Our fights are inherently linked.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

If you ever wanted conclusive proof that, no matter how the whole field may have originally started out, the contemporary Green movement has today become little more than a pathetically obvious front for Marxism of one kind or another, then this is it. Biodiversity and sexual diversity are now revealed as one and the same thing \u2013 Save the Gay Pandas today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From a far-Left perspective, explains Catrina, \u201cwhen it comes to the fight against climate change, the LGBTQ+ community has so much to offer\u201d, as \u201cwe have a history of fighting for survival\u201d during things like the Stonewall Riots, so \u201cwe are trained for this fight\u201d. Well, if gays have a long history of organising violent street-marches, so do other rival organisations like the National Front. Can we have Intersectional Fascism next? (Some may say we already do\u2026)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Catrina, come the forthcoming Environmental Apocalypse, homosexuals will be particularly well-suited to saving lives and distributing succour on account of their alleged widespread past experience in \u201cproviding shelter in gay bars during natural disasters\u201d. I\u2019d rather take my chances outside in all the floodwaters, thanks. \u201cWe know when we come together we\u2019re a force to be reckoned with,\u201d Catrina ended her essay. We have been warned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oh, I Do Like To Be Gay Beside the Seaside!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even proper full-blown academic journals have now drunk the Queer Intersectional Environmentalist Kool-Aid, as shown by a laughable piece<\/a> which appeared in the Journal of Climate Change and Health<\/em> in February, entitled \u2018Climate Change-Related Disasters & the Health of LGBTQ+ Populations<\/a>\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With issues of biodiversity in mind, this report, quite genuinely, argued that, as gays are apparently now disproportionately a coastal-dwelling species, like crabs or starfish, who inhabit seaside or riverside towns and cities like Brighton and San Francisco in relatively greater numbers than boring old landlubber heterosexuals do, in a special form of microbiome known as \u201cgayborhoods\u201d, they are placed at innately higher risk of being drowned during global warming-triggered flood-events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because of such semi-aquatic dwelling-patterns, we are told, \u201capproximately 4% of gay or lesbian people reported being forced to evacuate their home due to a natural disaster compared with 1.2% of heterosexual people.\u201d Maybe UKIP\u2019s David Silvester was right after all, and God really does send out floodwaters to punish deviants? He may also choose to punish them with wildfires, which likewise affect gay lungs far worse than straight ones, as \u201capproximately 21% of LGBTQ+ adults live with asthma and\/or emphysema compared with 14% of heterosexual adults\u201d, for reasons entirely unexplained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, global warming will help spread tropical diseases, the authors warn, leaving HIV\/AIDS-ridden gay people, with their suppressed immune systems, even more susceptible to infection from the next global wave of Um Bongo Fever than straight people will be. Furthermore, as supposedly proven during the COVID-19 pandemic, \u201cLGBTQ+ Americans were more likely to work in jobs considered \u2018essential\u2019\u201d, like being transgender street-prostitutes, meaning they would find it impossible to avoid being infected in a way their non-queer peers would not (no heterosexuals are known to be employed as binmen, delivery drivers, hospital workers, shopkeepers or policemen throughout all of the continental United States).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even worse, once the floodwaters do strike, \u201cemergency shelters are frequently ill-equipped to support LGBTQ+ people and are experienced as unwelcoming by them\u201d. Shockingly, I would imagine some don\u2019t even have transgender toilets, just chemical ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now that we have been exposed to such profound Intersectional Environmentalist wisdom, I trust Daily Sceptic<\/em> readers are all now fully aware of the immense and pressing need for every last one of us to cut down on our carbon emissions immediately, lest we accidentally trigger an irreversible Homosexual Mass Extinction Event sometime before 2050. We must all do our bit, and start transitioning away from fossil fuels this very instant, lest we push Graham Norton and Benjamin Butterworth into unwanted early graves. Any single unnecessary emission you create, and it is tantamount to strangling Matthew Parris with piano-wire.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this distressing thought in mind, I have one final question<\/a> for all those Intersectional Environmentalists out there, then: what are the CO2<\/sub> emissions of the average Pride parade?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
