A Fox News program has slammed a left-wing film, “How to Blow Up a Pipeline,” for condoning violent, lethal acts to achieve ideological goals.
“Climate craziness has reached a new level — a new film called ‘How to Blow Up a Pipeline’ is out, and you’ve guessed it: It encourages climate activists to attempt to destroy a Texas oil pipeline in order to prevent the development of ‘evil fossil fuels,'” said David Webb, the co-host of “The Big Saturday Show.”
According to The Wrap, the film is “inspired by Andreas Malm’s 2021 non-fiction release with the same name” which “asserts that property destruction is an acceptable form of activism in the battle for climate change improvement” and “takes those points of view and portrays a group of young activists battling against the environmental crisis by preparing to blow up an oil pipeline in Western Texas.”
Joey Jones, a veteran US Marine Corps bomb specialist, believes “How to Blow Up a Pipeline” exemplifies “what Hollywood is attempting overtly” right now and has “done subtly for an extremely long time.” However, he predicts that it will not be a box-office smash like “Top Gun,” “Lone Survivor,” or “American Sniper.”
“When we release films that depict true heroism in the form of a selfless person, Americans are going to respond. They go; they enjoy it,” Jones explained. “I guess Hollywood is attempting to bankrupt itself. I’m not certain. They’ve gotten so righteous in their cause that they’ve lost sight of the business they’re in. That’s just fine. Make videos about pipeline explosions. Nobody is going to watch it. That’s OK.”
Cheryl Casone, a Fox Business anchor, questioned Rolling Stone’s good review of “How to Blow Up a Pipeline.” The magazine dubbed it “the Season’s Hottest Date Movie.”
According to Casone, the assessment “actually pushes, saying that violence is the best way of dealing with the climate problem — if you believe there is one. If you really want to do something concerning climate change, I guess… go to Washington,” she continued. “But blowing stuff up and ending up in prison? Sorry, it wasn’t the plan.”
Lisa Boothe, a Fox News contributor, expressed worry that younger viewers would imitate the acts of the characters on-screen.
“What concerns me about this is… first and foremost, are we certain this is a fictional story?” Second, Gen Z is the TikTok generation, which they go watch a video and then acquire their opinions and thoughts from that. “They are not a critical thinking generation,” Boothe asserted. “So it worries me that they’re being… spoon-fed this kind of propaganda.”
What is this mythical “Climate Problem”?
So they will destroy the environment to save the environment? Idiots. Makes as much sense as this so called climate change crap they have been spouting for years.
… and as much sense as buying a car that burns fossil fuekls for propulsion because it is easier to run it by going to a gas station to buy fuel every whipstitch. Think again about how you want to impact climate change by learning a little more about how thing actually work from a good reputable instructor who is conscientious about how he teaches his subject. Is it easy to determine who that is going to be? No — and nobody EVER said it would be!!!!!!
