      astroturfing is one thing, them literally disabling farming and logging equipment and chaining themselves to whatever gets the most headlines for them is done all on their own

        I mean they care about the animals and nature. Protests are meant to be disruptive. The law is not always moral.

            So you’ll follow any law no matter how immoral it is? Good to know you’ll willingly report your local thoughtcrime and anyone else the state demands of you. Failure to do so will out you in jail!

            So you would do anything the law tells you? “We were just following orders” did not cut it for the Nuremberg trials.

                  I use dude as a gender neutral term. And the point I was trying to make is you think I’m going to end up committing crimes that violate human rights.
