As annoying children are wont to do, the gibbering nutbars of the Krazy Klimate Kult, “Extinction Rebellion”, have spent the past few weeks throwing tanties and generally getting under everyone’s feet. These loons would simply be dismissed as just another nutty religious cult if they’d just stop inconveniencing everyone else.
Well, might I suggest they follow the example of another bunch of end-of-the-world crazies?
A farmer has been arrested in the Netherlands after police discovered six young adults who had been living in his isolated cellar for nine years.
The group, who appear to be siblings aged between 18 and 25, had apparently been in underground rooms accessible only by a hidden staircase. It was unclear whether they had been held under duress. Some were not registered with the authorities at birth, were said to have “no idea that other people existed” and were waiting for the “end of days”.
The Klimate Kult are likewise waiting for the end of days. Perhaps they ought to adopt this Dutch family as their patron saints? They seem to have a lot in common, after all.
A 25-year-old man with wild hair and a dirty beard had escaped from the house and drunk five beers at the bar before asking for help.
I take that back: the Extinction Rebellion lot are mostly millennials: they never leave their parents’ houses.
But there are still plenty more similarities.
“He was very confused […]You could see he had no idea where he was or what he was doing”[…]he had never been to school[…]
He sounds like the ideal climate striker.
Police said the family had not seen the world outside the farmhouse for nine years.
The remote farmstead near Ruinerwold, about 32k from the German border, was surrounded by high fences and CCTV cameras. It was rented by a 58-year-old man, who visited every day in a Volvo to tend a goat, several geese and a large vegetable plot.
The tenant, who is not the father of the six, was taken into custody for “failing to co-operate” with the police investigation.

Failing to co-operate with police? Right on, brother!
Awaiting the end of the world in all that rural isolation sounds like the ideal sustainable solution for the Extinction Rebellion nutters. If nothing else, it’d certainly buy the rest of us some much-needed peace and quiet from their absurd tantrums.
