> I'm generally against the environmental movements

why is that, may I ask? Always interested to learn about alternative viewpoints.

Often it's either overblown or outright wrong and just used by wealthy people to manipulate the public. I think protecting the environment is very important but most political environmental movements are doing something else.

Yeah fair enough, there is a lot of bullshit greenwashing and attempts to blame the public for corporations use of plastic, burning fuel, etc.

Green movements can sometimes be their own worst enemy too, letting perfect be the enemy of good and blocking small improvements because they don’t go far enough.
