Camila Thorndike called fossil fuel industry a 'death cult' that weaponizes 'white supremacy'​


The Harris-Walz campaign's climate engagement director has a long history of demonizing fossil fuels, going as far as to accuse oil and gas workers of committing "ecoterrorism" and advancing "individualism, white supremacy + toxic patriarchy," a Washington Free Beacon review found.

During an August 2022 podcast interview, Camila Thorndike—who worked at green energy advocacy firm Rewiring America before she joined Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign last month—called on "anyone who is in the fossil fuel sector to consider putting their talents elsewhere" and stop "continuing to cook the planet." It was far from Thorndike's first broadside on the industry's workers. Months earlier, in May 2022, she accused the oil and gas industry of "ecoterrorism." And in March 2021, she called on her followers to "overcome" the "individualism, white supremacy + toxic patriarchy" that oil and gas companies "weaponize."

While Thorndike's past comments reflect the views of left-wing climate activists, they stand in contrast to the more moderate approach Harris has taken on energy in the final weeks before the election—particularly in Pennsylvania, the crucial swing state home to tens of thousands of oil and gas workers. They also shed light on the kind of personnel who could staff up a potential Harris administration.

Thorndike, who did not respond to a request for comment, has dubbed oil and gas companies "evil" because they routinely turn a sizable profit.


BJ-
Yeah Harris/Walz are the extreme fringe of the extreme fringe.
They can try to hide it.
They are not normal.
 
"To have that level of money flowing to so few CEOs and shareholders, there is something evil about that. There is something that is—a system that's like so unequal and so callous to human suffering," she said during her August 2022 interview with the My Climate Journey podcast.

"I would challenge anyone who is in the fossil fuel sector to consider putting their talents elsewhere because, to my mind, there's no greater source of harm than continuing to cook the planet, which we've known for decades."

At the time of those comments, Thorndike was Sen. Bernie Sanders's (I., Vt.) legislative assistant. While she was in that position, Sanders introduced the Ending Corporate Greed Act, which would levy a 95 percent tax on corporate windfall profits and raise $31.9 billion from three of the largest oil companies alone.

The activist group Center for Biological Diversity said the bill would help combat the "climate emergency."

This is one of those left-wing children who doesn't know where money comes from, what a shareholder is - really probably everything is beyond her reach.
