How Red Are the EU’s ‘Greens’?
Eric

Blood-red.
But that’s a banned fact. (It will be documented in what follows.)
Here
are the announced values (the
“Guiding Principles”) of the European Green Party:
“Environmental
Responsibility”
“Freedom
through Self-Determination”
“Extending
Justice”
“Diversity,
an Indispensable Condition”
“Non-Violence”
“To sum
it up, Sustainable Development”
This “Charter
of the European Greens” fills-in those blanks by stringing together clichés,
which 90% of the pubic will like, because they’re written so as to avoid (as
much as possible) saying anything that’s broadly controversial. For example,
“Our answer is sustainable development, which integrates environmental, social
and economic objectives for the benefit of all.” (Oh? And how is that pap to
be realized in actual policies? What are the measures, and the precise
priority-rankings, when any of those values conflict with one-another,
which is often?) The Green Party is simply conning liberals, but what is
their reality? What are they actually doing, when
in power? Inside their own country, and in the EU? Let’s take a very concrete
(but broadly representative) case:
