    I’m still not convinced that these guys aren’t being fronted by oil conglomerates to make real climate activists look like morons.

      Holy shit I’ve been wanting to say this since they started but figured it would sound too conspiratory. They prey on the most lonely and disillusioned progressives and get them to do stupid things from the feeling of being apart of something.

      it‘s a conspiracy theory and I am not sure whether you are pushing it. yesterday there was a big discussion about it on another thread and the proof presented by some was garbage.

        I have to admit I have no proof other than it wouldn’t be the worst thing these kind of companies have done.

        That, and as far as putting down any sort of ‘grassroots’ movement, making them look like fools is a move straight out of Freakonomics in regards to how the KKK was effectively out on blast by the Superman radio Broadcast of the day.

        By showing how crazy and dumb the organizations ‘secret codes’ & ‘rituals’ were, their numbers dropped precipitously.
