Might be a hot take, but I for one think we should be far more extremist in our climate fight against corporations.
Just yesterday I was thinking about how I can't open my window for the weekend because of the smoke in the air. This thought process is fucking insane when you step back and think about it, but yet it's becoming our daily lives. No window day today -> no outside day -> oh we only go out at night now etc. Progression is slow so we get used to the hindrances we have to live with.
My main point: if you’re going to go after ‘climate extremists’, make sure it’s the ones who don’t care about your children’s future, not the ones trying to do something about it.
I'm fine with eco-terrorists when they target fossile stuff. I'm very much not fine when they target nuclear, public electricity companies, or even GMO research.
I get it, but ... all anyone accomplishes by barricading a road to protest oil is pissing off people trying to get to work so they have a roof over their heads and don't starve. They're not going to think, Oh! Well! I'd better change my ways! I'll just spend this tens of thousands of dollars I don't have lying around on an EV (which won't solve climate change anyway), take the fuck-all existent public transit (in North America), or walk 20 miles to work every day!
