Well, you see, the "Anti Magic Rock" Lobby has immense amount of power because of the money of the still lucrative "burning stuff and pollute everything" business.

It's the "Burning other magic rocks" party.

That, and the green parties (at least in EU).

The "green" parties 💵💵

Yeah, oil oiled the "green" anti-nuclear protests.

You can tell that's how it was because the cops didn't beat them as much (or in some big cases at all) as they do even the most insignificant anti-oil protesters.

I feel like people are interpreting your comment with an American context. As a fellow European I agree, NGOs like Greenpeace are also to blame, and I don't think those are financed by fossil fuel lobbies.
