    It’s less surprising when you realize the founder of greenpeace was drummed out of the org over this same issue.

      Do you have a source on that? I googled the founders of greenpeace, but I didn’t find any reference to your claim.

        a lot of things like this gets memory holed as to not be so obvious about having luxury beliefs where they don’t mind how many people starve as long as it pushes their particular facet of a nuanced agenda imho.
