At the forefront of the arms race in catastrophic prophecies is Extinction Rebellion. Every page on its website itemises the scale of the climate crisis, and the dire impact that human development supposedly has on life on Earth. The extinction referred to in the movement’s title does not just include wildlife, but humanity itself. Activists claim that our extinction is just a generation away.
Here is a literally hopeless creed. XR and its apocalyptic ilk do not seem interested in climate change as a practical challenge – as something that can be addressed with technological and material development, as environmental problems have been mitigated in the past. Instead, they see climate change as a form of necessary punishment. As XR co-founder Roger Hallam puts it in one blog post, XR members must ‘understand that redemption only comes through suffering and the only honourable life is to move into that suffering in an act of faith that there will be another side to come out of, into a state of grace’.
@Flick They have nothing to offer, and I don’t think they want anyone to have any solutions, they are getting off on this in the same way the trannies do on their schtick, it’s just another bloody cult of self flagellation enjoyment.
@KeepTakingTheSoma @HebrideanHecate Yep, very much first world problems.
@HebrideanHecate @Flick @KeepTakingTheSoma It's religion for the Godless. Also an austerity cult - but for you, not for them.
