    That’s not in the article, are you making shit up to suit your political agenda?

    Especially the last one is wild - yeah, they sneakily funded the single most historically effective form of protest short of attempted murder (see Luigi bopping goombas) in order to *checks notes* reduce support for climate change activism.

    In the Netherlands, the biggest climate movement spike was when activists repeatedly blocked a highway and defaced its surface. The biggest protests in 50 years happened after a year-long campaign of vandalism, defacement of public property, and fighting police.

Get well-meaning scientists to submit to public pressure allowing imperialism to continue its reign of terror without competition.
