And, there are remarkable similarities.

Recently, in one of her articulated streams of consciousness, AOC warned that we all would be toast in 12 years if global warming wasn’t arrested.
Time to metal-cube our SUVs and mass-slaughter the bovine-methane creatures, right?
Well, not so fast.
While AOC’s warning may come to fruition, I’m betting the over on the 12 years … in part, because it fits a pattern of hysterical unrealized doomsday predictions.
For example, circa. 1970, Prof. Paul Ehrlich (Stanford University) wrote Malthusian-inspired book: The Population Bomb. The book became a runaway “scientific” best-seller.
Ehrlich warned that because of unchecked population growth:
The battle to feed all of humanity is over.
Hundreds of millions of people are going to starve to death.
All of us will face mass starvation on a dying planet.
While their were some deniers, demographers agreed almost unanimously with Ehrlich’s doomsday prediction ….
