Environmental activism is riddled with irrational emotional appeals that don't align with objective reality.
One can make an argument that this is necessary to get the majority of people to care about the intractable hyperobject that is climate change, but I think it very clearly deserves condescension and ridicule when it becomes clear that these emotional appeals from environmental activists have been accidentally fighting legitimate possible solutions (nuclear) which has indirectly helped the fossil fuel industry that they're supposed to hate.
