What do you think of environmental protest groups? - eviltoast

Examples include Just Stop Oil and Extinction Rebellion here in the UK.

Personally, I think some charities are groups are genuine in their outburst wanting large firms to stop strangling the natural beauty for profit, however for me there is a red line that can be crossed.

Blocking roads preventing medical care, people going to work, interview and possibly a nice vacation away. This doesn’t really help but make the public look at your group in a bad light.

The same can also be said when attempting to destroy priceless art for a cheap publicity stunt knowing it’ll get clicks on social media.

TLDR - I think some groups are genuinely good whilst others are just shouting in a speakerphone, pissing everyone else off.

    Based. We need more of them. Either people will understand through inconvenience, or show themselves a murderous, self-centered settler barbarian. It’s either this, or we start putting down CEOs, C-Suite execs, and even non-exec vulture capitalists in the streets like the dogs they are cause we don’t have time to keep fucking around trying to change hearts and souls in the heartless and soulless.
