Do we have to be a hivemind?
We think?
I must confer with the hive mind
Depends - who is the “we” in the question?
They are an anti science organization. They oppose nuclear power, GMOs, etc.
We? How about you either study the subject and form your own opinion or then don’t have an opinion on it at all.
There isn’t enough opposition to entrenched influence. They push back against huge companies doing shitty things. I like that.
I’m ambivalent about their anti-nuclear stance. Renewables seem like a much better bet, but it’s hard to say no to anything that would slow down climate change.
They’ve screwed up on some of their actions, sure. But they’re pushing in the right direction.
If we (society as a whole) had started switching to renewables when Greenpeace first started campaigning for them, I suspect we wouldn’t have the climate emergency that makes nuclear look attractive.
It’s hard to expect them to change their stance just because we failed to follow their lead for decades.
I think that’s what most people miss. Green Peace is mostly right. Everything scientists and environmentalists have been saying for decades is right. They’re easy to shit in because they are passionate and wear their hearts on their sleeves, but they’re right: we need to do better.
They’re easy to shit on because they are stupid, being passionate and stupid are not a necessary combination.
Personally I dislike top-to-bottom-orgs like gp, while I see at the same time they are fighting for a world worth living in (as I do as well).
i think they mean well. its hard to hate the person. the organization has made some interesting choices
What did they do?
Can’t make a man bun look sexy.
Good
