Liberal Fascism

From this post:
There is far too much to this important book to summarize in a brief column. But the relevance of “Liberal Fascism” to environmentalism bears mention. As Goldberg writes: “The most tangible fascistic ingredient [of environmentalism] is that it is an invaluable ‘crisis mechanism.’ Al Gore constantly insists that global warming is the defining crisis of our time. Skeptics are called traitors, Holocaust deniers, tools of the ‘carbon interests’… the beauty of global warming is that it touches everything we do - what we eat, what we wear, where we go. Our ‘carbon footprint’ is the measure of man.”
