Beege #Endorsed: Just Stop 'Just Stop oil'

A shadowy organization named “Just Stop Oil” keeps making headlines because of the public vandalism and street crime it supports. These include throwing soup on Vincent Van Gogh’s “Sunflower” painting, pasting themselves to a copy of Leonardo da Vinci’s “The Last Supper,” gluing themselves to German airport runways, blocking vehicular traffic, and most recently, trying to sledgehammer an original copy of the Magna Carta.

These stories provide the headlines the gang wants people to read, because they highlight the “seriousness” of their radical environmentalist cause, with selfless activists willing to be arrested for engaging in “peaceful” civil disobedience that brings attention to their apocalyptic climate cult. But Just Stop Oil and its affiliates are not peaceful, nor are their actions civil. Along with its parent organization, the Climate Emergency Fund (CEF), Just Stop Oil is an organization committed to criminal activity, and it has several sister organizations under the CEF umbrella that have engaged in overt violence, including eco-terrorism.

So who is funding Just Stop Oil and the Climate Emergency Fund? Its wealthy left-wing, female legacy benefactors include Rory Kennedy (daughter of the late Robert Kennedy), Abigail Disney, and co-founder oil heiress Aileen Getty, among others. From a 2022 NPR story, "Who is Just Stop Oil, the group that threw soup on Van Gogh's painting?":

Most of the money for its operations comes from the Climate Emergency Fund, based in Los Angeles, which began with a foundational grant of $500,000 from Getty Oil heiress Aileen Getty. Filmmaker Adam McKay made a $4 million contribution and joined its board of directors last month.
