The SpecOz, natch, is on the Extinction Rebellion mailing list — so we couldn’t help but notice this highlight from today’s bulletin:

“Psychology for a Safe Climate”, hey?

Presumably, they teach that blocking busy intersections, glueing yourself to roads in the middle of CBDs, chaining yourself to bridges, playing oddball dress-up games in deep red mad mummer’s outfits and sub-Marcel Marceaux face paint, blocking public transport (!?!) and the like creates neither a safe climate for yourself or others and, indeed, not only indicates you not only have some major mental health problems — but is likely to spark unfortunate mental health issues in others from rage, frustration and sheer amazement that their fellow human beings can carry on like such bloody idiots.
