Civil disobedience is not vigilantism. In fact, it is almost the opposite.

I imagine that their point is not that they are the same, but that the attitudes correlate. The absolutist view about vigilantism, where they see no possible place for violence in any situation, could translate to the idea that one should protest quietly, preferably indoors and change will come soon enough™. Which seems to be the case [0]. He groups up completely different social movements ranging from the highly organized, reactions to an active conflict, to decentralized mobs, naming them "neotoddlerism". Saying that:

> The Civil Rights movement succeeded because it was guided by leaders who had clear, specific, and realistic goals, and were able to negotiate to achieve them.

Implying that Just Stop Oil doesn't fulfill these characteristics sans the prominent leaders. Their original objective seems to have happened [1] (JSO influence is debatable of course) and have defined new clear goals [2]. Lumping this with Israel-Palestine outrage on Twitter and the UK riots seems to make the criteria for not being effective social movements a.k.a "neotoddlerism" is "I don't like it / They annoy me".

Would this attitude result in "denouncing / joking about Seneca Falls" with era appropriate socialization? Doesn't seem that far farfetched.

You got my exact point and elaborated really well with even research on the guy! Thanks it means a lot.

There are comments on this website where you speak in defense of the children killed by the collateral damage of Israel's pager attack. We don't need to hear you roll out your wild and crazy South Park morality chart to check whether the assassination of a healthcare CEO should make us sick to our stomachs. If you can believe it, we're quite capable of making up our own minds on the matter.

Thanks for your assessment regardless, we'll file it next to your other opinions on the valueless nature of human life and when it's justified to kill innocent people because they scare or upset you. Pray you're never cross-examined and have to give a sincere opinion, for once.
