AUSTRALIAN ECONOMIST SPREADS RACHEL CARSON=HITLER MYTH MYTH

Asked to provide examples of evil right-wing spreaders of the Rachel Carson=Hitler myth, fact-checker extraordinaire John Quiggin offers Ann Coulter:

Liberals have always had a thing about eliminating humans. Stalin wanted to eliminate the kulaks and Ukranians, vegetarian atheist Adolf Hitler wanted to eliminate the Jews, Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger wanted to eliminate poor blacks, DDT opponent Rachel Carson wanted to eliminate Africans (introduction to her book "Silent Spring" written by ... Al Gore!), and population-control guru Paul Ehrlich wants to eliminate all humans.

And James Woudhuysen:

One writer goes so far as to argue that Carson’s ideology ‘has led to more deaths than Stalin’s purges’ (8).

Stalin, Hitler, same difference. This Quiggin guy is a regular fact-checking machine.

Undaunted by wrongness Quiggin asks his accuser to recant. Cool move, professor.
