No, Just Stop Oil is not an "activist" group. They're in cahoots with the enemy. They're defamation, and their intent is to give the radical right something to point to.

Just Stop Just Stop Oil.

EDIT: There are waaaaaaay too many assumptions happening in this thread.

Huh. This is actually the most sensible answer.

I once read a pretty good write up somewhere on Reddit with proof that they were getting reasonably large financial support from the daughter of an oil baron, and it's unclear if she supports the left or right.

On the other hand, a friend of a friend was arrested at a just stop oil rally in Manchester, UK a few months back, and I know him well enough to absolutely believe he thought he was doing what was best for the world, although I'm unsure if he'd deface anything.

Those two things are not incongruous. Your friend was deceived by the leadership who is in the pocket of oil companies.
