Their tactics and the fact that a large portion of their funding comes from the granddaughter of an oil tycoon makes it hard to think their goal is to purposely look like jackasses to diminish support for real environmentalism.

This is exactly what i think they are doing. I didnt know bout the oil baron granddaughter funding it, but they are such fucking plebs and the message is being delivered to entirely the wrong people in the wrong places. They probably dont even realise they are sabotage acts. Seem to be passionate about tje cause but even with a group of 10 of them they struggle to hit a cumulative double digit iq levels. Get a new frontman you fucking goobers.

I think they’re probably grasping at straws. The message has been delivered to the right people in the right places and nothing has been done. They do look like plebs but at least they’re doing something beyond posting about it on social media somewhere.

But they’re not doing anything. What they doing right now is just annoying people and achieving nothing at all. The people I need to influence are not going to change and the people that they’re annoying any kind of control to implement any change or to force any change.
So really they just being irritating for the sake of being irritating. We have enough people in the world like that already and they don’t require any kind of ill conceived cause.
