Climate Activist Andreas Malm Advocates for Increased Sabotage, Accepts Potential for Human Casualties
In a controversial stance, Malm argues that the fight against climate change may necessitate political violence and sabotage, even if it results in accidents and deaths.
- Andreas Malm, a prominent environmental activist and author of 'How to Blow Up a Pipeline', has advocated for increased sabotage and political violence in the fight against climate change, even if it results in accidents and deaths.
- In an interview with The New York Times, Malm expressed his desire for sabotage to occur on a larger scale, stating that he cannot guarantee it won't come with accidents.
- Malm's views appear to have escalated over the years, as he previously made a distinction between hurting people and hurting machines, but now seems to accept the potential for human casualties as a result of climate activism.
- Malm argues that the potential for human lives lost as a result of climate alarmism awareness-fueled sabotage is an unfortunate but acceptable outcome.
- Despite his advocacy for violence, Malm insists that his aim is violence against property, not people, and that he does not endorse any political violence that targets people.
