ELF 2.0 they're not, and I disagree with the violence against people, but it's about time someone reminded clicktivists what it means to take a risk to stand for something.

+Sander Timmer: Why the accusatory tone?
"I disagree with the violence against people" but I don't mind seeing people take risks to realize their goals. I therefore have more respect for ELF (even though I disagree with them on substance) than most modern clicktivists (which whom I sometimes agree on substance) who call themselves activists.

+Ben Li I just wasn't so sure what you mean and also with your additional comment I'm not 100%, though I guess we both agree strongly on that letter bombs and physical violence is never the solution when you disagree
