There may be reasons this is a dumb opinion but although XR could definitely be more effective than they have been so far, it's hard to argue that they haven't been more effective than just about anything else to do with global warming recently at getting attention for the topic.

Consciousness raising is liberal activism bullshit, you use awareness to build power or you fail.

I'm extremely glad that my criticisms and scepticism that I expressed in April are more widely acknowledged now.

Absolutely agree, just hand wringing is a bit rubbish - but whose events I can attend instead to achieve change now?

Are we talking about comrades carrying out lone wolf direct action at coal plants, or what?

Hello friends at the digital intelligence services. This is a dead comedy forum and we're cool. Don't worry about it.

Yeah, to be clear for our friends in Cheltenham I wasn't advocating anything in particular there.

I do want to do more and make an actual difference now, but I don't want to blow anyone up.

From what I've seen recently in the news the capitalists and taking direct action themselves by not paying their miners to the point that they block the rails taking the coal out of the mines..

Cool and good miners.
