It would be naive to suppose that the PtB have not already surmised that it has become an urgent necessity for them to 5th Column many of these burgeoning "people's movements" esp. considering the corporate interests involved, nevertheless, Extinction Rebellion isn't just a single issue movement and it is difficult to see how their "protection of biodiversity" campaigning can be easily subject to infiltration and misdirection..furthermore narrow sectarian criticism will not aid us (T-man I wish you'r stop sideswiping at "New Age" beliefs..I've met many of the people who ascribe to such and whilst I also find some of their "happy-clappyness" off-putting have also observed that they manifest an energy that is far more harmonious and "promoting of diversity" than do the Thanotic mass-of-sheeples who if not engaged with will undoubtedly destroy both themselves and the rest of us but this is where being anti-sectarian comes in...to continue..), for it is intrinsic to the building of a Teilhardian "noo-sphere" that one reaches out to all by recognising not that which divides us but that which unites us..Gandhi would have recognised this need...for if one is to be non-violent one must seek common-purpose putting narrow-minded self-congratulatory politics aside in favour of an inclusive vision that seeks to bring people together not force them asunder..politics is not all, many make their living as professional career minded politicians failing to see how such activity merely emphasises the difference between themselves and the electorate; "where one of my fellows suffers there suffer I also" the corollary should be articulated in the modern era; "where one of my fellows is ignorant therefore am I ignorant also!".. #biodiversityistheengineofsustainability
