I’m pretty sure activists are not just “people who show up to rallies”. Especially not the kind that a megacorp is trying to murder.

the idea that there's no possible way to reasonably estimate the number of environmental activists seems very unlikely to me.

[yunohn]

Do you happen to have some sources for a reasonable estimation on the number of, say…

• hackers? • crackers? • political activists?

[jamesrcole]

nope. What has that got to do with my comment? Someone was implying that it was impossible, I was saying that claim was implausible. People estimate those kinds of numbers all the time for statistical purposes.
