| Comment | I think you could make this argument for extinction rebellion and insulate Britain, even if the goal was to get people talking. But JSO seem like the real deal to me.
I guess I don't see why stunts like the van Gogh thing upset people so much. It got loads of attention and no one was hurt or even inconvenienced. If things like property damage and disrupting events put you off , then I feel like that's kind of on you. The goal is to start the conversation and that's worked. Its a far cry from the leftist activism of the 70s which may have done more harm than good..
I understand there was a snooker thing recently that annoyed people. Idk the full details but I'd imagine JSO is not fully centralised and groups can go off and plan their own protests. I guess some of these will have bad "optics". At the end of the day they are the main people actually standing the real crackpots - fossil fuel execs and their enablers in the gvmnt. Shit needs to get done and I'm glad someone's doing it. |
