The Last Generation – more dangerous than it seems

pch24.pl 5 months ago

Green revolutionaries are associated with emotionally edified youths who have been filled with talk about a burning planet. They stick to asphalt, attack works of art, and spread a imagination in the media that is dying in the torments of humanity. Although they do not agree with people, they must not be ignored, for with the current political instability in the election year they can confuse a lot.

The methods utilized by the Last Generation are believed to deter society from ideologies of climateism. At first glance, specified a message seems reasonable, but it is only appearances. Green revolutionaries have many influential allies that effectively influence people's minds, change public discourse, and even the political situation in the country. But to realize this, you gotta first look under the lining of loud headlines and fast comments.

Hidden Alliance Network

Liberal populist power of Donald Tusk, along with his candidate in the presidential election of Rafał Trzaskowski, after long months of silent consent suddenly She condemned the paralysis of public order by the Last Generation, and even harassed something about "the determined intervention of the services". That volt shouldn't surprise you. The strategy of the current power camp from the beginning is to tighten muscles against political opposition and socially disliked groups. specified ‘flexiveness’ aims to mask passiveness resulting from coalition contradictions which prevent consistent policies from being conducted in another fields applicable to the country.

The mistake in government calculations is to ignore the fact that the Last Generation's movement is fond of many influential people whose support power would wish. This is crucial in the context of the ongoing presidential campaign. As we have seen in erstwhile elections – the support of Trzaskowski by the utmost left and concrete demolibers is not unconditional at all. It is adequate to remind the increasing murmurs of discontent when, in the 2nd circular of the 2020 presidential election, Trzaskowski began to settle for a community centered around the March of Independence, which he considered to be “fascists” and “nationalists”.

Many voters forgave him, realizing that he was only part of the political theatre, but a calming action appalled by these "grey lefts" mats by the editorial board Political criticisms It was meaningful, too. Now the situation is repeating itself. The chief of staff of Trzaskowski, Wioletta Paprocka-Ślusarska, decided that the run should be held under the sign of feminist conservatism, patriotism and pretend solidarity with the “Polish county”. This direction has already strained the patience of banana conduct from large cities. What a treat for them glued to the asphalt of their pets like intruders!

The movement of the Last Generation does not go in its fight alone. Already after Tusk's first threatening murmurs, the activist loyalty, besides from the “court activists”, which had been shed in terrible times of written “irregularity”. For example, Sylwia Gregorczyk-Abram at the initiative of the Free Courts intercede for young revolutionaries in the media, and the court punished the group, for blocking the Poniatowski Bridge before Taylor Swift's performance in Warsaw, only a reprimand (Sic!). Bearing in head that legal activism flourishes in the courts of large cities, the Last Generation can number on gentle treatment, escalating its actions in a sense of far-reaching impunity.

Traffic activists besides find a quiet network of support in left-wing liberal nationwide media. TOK FM, OKO.press, Political criticism, part of the editorial board Newsweeka and a fresh journalistic litter Electoral Newspapers They're behind eco-radicals. It is adequate to mention that their actions are supported by specified media bulterers of liberal democracy as Jacek Żakowski or Ewa Siedlecka. Additionally, there are young influencers (e.g. Rafał Masny), the Helsinki Foundation for Human Rights and another NGOs. The government's attack on organizations supporting illegal immigration or extremist environmentalism is an attack on all of them. Donald, Rafale! After all, you were to punish the written crime against humanity, and you proceed it?! That's not what we agreed on. – specified words of disappointment have resounded in subversive environments for a long time, and will have consequences.

Myths

It is not only socially engaged progressives that support the actions of green revolutionaries. Among their sympathisers are besides intuitively “anti-adherenced” young people who see in their actions the expression of rebellion against an establishment benefiting from the luxury gained at the expense of the planet. Rhetorical awkwardness or deficiency of logic, which sometimes uncover itself in the statements of activists, are not a reason for young people to reject them. On the contrary, they see their own reflection and their desire to argue the generation of parents, while the method itself which this is done goes to the background.

Initially, it could be assumed that inviting activists to the tv studio would end in their embarrassment and failure of the “climate heroes”. But reality turned out to be different. An excellent example was the visit of representatives of the Last Generation to Channel Zero. To the public's amazement Robert Mazurek and Krzysztof Stanowski, trying to compromise the guests, suffered a spectacular defeat. Who expected a repeat after Jasie Kapela was "broken" had to be shocked. On the 1 hand, viewers saw people quoting data and presenting perfect commitment, on the another hand – cynical businessmen with inflated ego throwing easy to overthrow slogans. The failure of journalists echoed widely on the Internet. The popular channel “Note! technological Belkot” showed in item that editor Mazurek had no thought about the issues discussed, which only increased his failure. As a result, respective twelve fresh people joined the Last Generation after this conversation!

The discussion at Channel Zero proved to be a litmus paper. The opponents of the Last Generation are usually not only prepared for a substantive discussion of environmental policy, but besides for criticizing the methods of movement itself. They do not realize that controversial actions, specified as painting paintings or statues, are planned to prevent real damage. Attacked works of art are usually protected by windows and utilized substances – easy to remove. These symbolic acts are designed to origin shock and a mistaken impression of destroying cultural heritage, which in turn provides free advertising for the movement. Paradoxically, outraged critics give activists greater visibility – a key component of effective public activity.

In conclusion, the top force of the Last Generation and another extremist environmental movements is the weakness of their opponents. As Solomon’s parable says, “Praise is coming before the fall, and lofty spirit is coming before the ruin.” The consequence of overconfidence is not preparing for confrontation, and failure in public clashes – especially in the eyes of young people. If extremist ecology is to be stopped, its representatives must be taken seriously, and this seriousness must manifest itself in substantive preparation for combat. Otherwise, their influence will only expand.

The Future

The last generation tries to convince the public that their methods are the consequence of the failure of politicians alternatively than their own choice. They say that they do this due to the fact that they have no alternate – politicians do not respond to milder forms of protest, specified as social campaigns, and the time of humanity is ending. This argument can scope many people due to the fact that any of the population accepts actions that hinder regular life if they service their shared objectives. Examples from the past, specified as Andrzej Lepper's roadblocks or blasphemous and anarchist revolts by Marty Lempart, show that despite the country's paralysis, specified initiatives gained public support and sympathy. In addition to the firm efforts of the service towards quasi-terrorism, a substantive offensive is besides necessary. It must be effective and professional, avoiding apparent factual and methodological errors. Otherwise, we will hear more and more often: "I do not support the actions of the Last Generation, but I support their demands." And these demands are becoming more attractive. Who would not want access to inexpensive and efficient collective communication?

That's what activists are all about. Unlike any critics who dream only of making money and holy peace, they fight for something they profoundly believe in. They are aware of their unpopularity, but it does not discourage them, due to the fact that they see themselves as messengers of a larger matter. In order to successfully argue them, an alternate imagination should be proposed: a well-thought-out, well-concerned and able to gain public support. Otherwise – even if activists themselves do not gain universal kindness, their thought can win.
