Isn’t Europe and the entire interior of North America also farmland?

There is a fear in some people that Bolsonaro is not doing enough to stop the fires, going by his previous stance on the issue and the corporatism under his government, leading to illegal logging, farming and mining in the Amazon Forests

Since those alone forests contribute a large percentage of global oxygen, it is not in anyone's interest that they get deforested

We need to drop the boomer radical Climate Change Denialist position

The Nationalist Right Wing should reclaim Environmentalism

2019-08-26 19:30:27 UTC  

Left wingers: wtf now we HATE the environment now

2019-08-26 19:40:57 UTC  

not really, tbh

2019-08-26 19:41:48 UTC  

lefties don't usually base their opinions on if they are opposing right-leaning ones

2019-08-26 19:42:02 UTC  

Some of them do

2019-08-26 19:42:10 UTC  

who?

2019-08-26 19:42:43 UTC  

Border control?

2019-08-26 19:42:49 UTC  

Was a right wing position

2019-08-26 19:42:54 UTC  

To have it open

2019-08-26 19:43:12 UTC  

And then Trump changed it to controlled borders

2019-08-26 19:43:22 UTC  

And then a bunch of lefties changed their minds

2019-08-26 19:43:40 UTC  

and when did that happen?

2019-08-26 19:43:55 UTC  

i need citations for that lol

2019-08-26 19:43:57 UTC  

Over the course of the Trump campaign and presidency

2019-08-26 19:44:14 UTC  

Look it up: Koch brothers promoting open borders

2019-08-26 19:44:41 UTC  

And that's because:

2019-08-26 19:44:45 UTC  

Surprise surprise

2019-08-26 19:44:57 UTC  

Trump is largely your classical 80s Democrat

2019-08-26 19:48:57 UTC  

Now, if you're wondering *why* it used to be a right wing thing

2019-08-26 19:49:11 UTC  

That was because illegals were a convenient way to get cheap labor

2019-08-26 19:49:41 UTC  

And it was the Dems at the time calling it inhumane and saying citizens shouldnt lose jobs

2019-08-26 19:50:37 UTC  

It was an economic "Right Wing" position, not cultural/nationalist Right Wing position.

2019-08-26 19:50:55 UTC  

...just not nationalist

2019-08-26 19:51:13 UTC  

Cultural I dont think applies here

Cultural Right Wing as in Social Conservatives and Paleoconservatives

2019-08-26 19:52:28 UTC  

Pat Buchanan and co.

2019-08-26 19:52:32 UTC  

Again

2019-08-26 19:52:43 UTC  

Culturally it could go either way generally speaking

2019-08-26 19:53:00 UTC  

I read a few articles and the Koch brothers don't seem to be exactly "open borders", they even stated this: "The president has a duty to enforce the nation’s immigration laws." They did support borders, they were only against the deportation of illegal immigrants. Which, sure, isn't super right leaning, but is 100% not complete open borders. Although if I misread it, feel free to correct me.

2019-08-26 19:53:02 UTC  

You could go for the "govt dont tell me what to do" sort of culture
