I think you've completely missed XR's point.

Never mind, you're not alone. But I strongly suggest if you are really bothered by climate breakdown you try to do something about it.
Loosely it can be broken down into two things: Do what you can do, and persuade the major causes of climate breakdown to do something about it.
What you can do is relatively tiny and ineffectual, but it helps and it makes you feel good.
Putting pressure on governments institutions and the media has a massive impact.
That's what XR is doing, and for a young organisation breaking new ground with entirely new structures and ideas it is having a remarkable impact. Sure it's a bit whack at times, not everything works as planned, but even the queen thinks it is commendable.
Extension rebellion sounds too.mich like an apocalyptic cult is you read some.of what the groups writes.
I saw on the groups logos.on a VW 70s camper van
Very petrol powered and inefficient. It's that kind of irony that makes folk think the group is not shall we say in the real world. I woder how many of the groups supporter drop e to work this morning or where driven. I ride daily. That does not make me a saint but encouraging that instead of apocalyptic doom and gloom will have more success in the long run.
The groups leader needs to u understand making the group sound like your preppers marginalised it. Yes preppers
They prepare for impending global doom. I see no difference between he physiology of preppers and and exction rebellion activists. There always an apocalypse to prepare for. It practically religious. Christianity has the apocalypse to prepare for by doing gods work so your soul is saved or that's one interpretation of the more fundamentalist strand of the religion. Same thinking. It turns most folk off.
