That is is egocentric ********. The problems caused by run-off into
watercourses include the local extinction of species, the destruction
of ecologies, and contamination of the water supply. What's more,
several of the chemicals and their decomposition products scarcely
degrade at all in the conditions that occur in the mud at the bottom
of the streams, lakes and ponds, so it's a long-term issue.

“It is not the truth of Marxism that explains the willingness of
intellectuals to believe it, but the power that it confers on
intellectuals, in their attempts to control the world. And since...it is
futile to reason someone out of a thing that he was not reasoned into,
we can conclude that Marxism owes its remarkable power to survive every
criticism to the fact that it is not a truth-directed but a
power-directed system of thought.”
