American Greatness: Should you ever doubt the importance of the “narrative” to the modern Left, all you need to do is look around you. It’s the in the air we breathe, and the water in which we swim, attached to the products we buy and behind just about every news story we read or see. At every turn, we are admonished, hectored, harangued to get with the cultural-Marxist program.
On a plane recently, the attendants handed out complimentary dark chocolates. The brand? Something called Endangered Species Chocolate, a company that bills its products as “the first ever chocolate bars made in America from Fairtrade certified West African cocoa beans that can be fully traced from farm to chocolate bar. ESC has committed that only fully traceable cocoa beans sustainably grown and harvested under Fairtrade standards will be used to make their chocolate.”
In case, like me, you had no idea fluffy chocolate bunnies were an endangered species, or that a guilty nibble at a Hershey bar could lay waste to vast stretches of the veldt, the company offers this helpful explanation: MORE
The Left now depends on constant nonstop Hysteria to retain its hold on its followers.
Scarcity is a crucial myth to maintain.
Coffee beans. Polar bears. Electricity.
Everything must be “endangered”. At all times.

What crap, but progressives are the most gullible people you will meet. Worthless virtue signalling by worthless liberals.
I want to let all of you that I’m very sorry
I posted some articles in a different conversation that you guys was having I’m so sorry. Please accept my apology I didn’t mean to be rude.
And yet, they are still engaging in Capitalism, the workers are always exploited.
You can never win, so don’t try.
@Bob ~ you just did it again! … lol
@Bob,
Relax. You’re fine.
“”What’s all this fuss I keep hearing about endangered feces? Now, that’s outrageous!! Why are feces endangered? How can you possibly run out of such a thing? Why, just look around you, you can see it all over the place! Besides, who wants to save that anyway? My goodness, where would we keep it?! It’s dangerous, especially in the summer!! Then it could really hit the fan!”
