The popular conception in the 90s and 00s of environmentalist, animal rights, and other left-wing activists as obnoxious, naive children was deliberately inculcated via popular media by the billionaire class.
This is not a billionaire class conspiracy, this is a project by the full bourgeois state. Literally thousands of green activists have died or disappeared just in the last 10 years and IIRC it was worse in the 00's.
I do not doubt this at all but I am wondering if you have any good sources that go into detail with examples and names?
