The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

They don't have that, and I've said that a hundred times. What they are is a bunch of cells as I said that collaborate online, coordinate tactics, and plan "events" in each others' cities.

Then they're not "cells." I mean, that's the whole point of why some organizations have cells. They don't collaborate with each other, or coordinate with each other, or plan events with each other. In an organization based on cells, the cells don't have contact with each other at all. They're not even supposed to know who the other cells are.

What you're describing are just different organizations that will work together for a common goal or interest. Like the Sierra Club, the Audubon Society, and the NRDC will collaborate and coordinate and plan joint events - but they're not each "cells" of some larger organization of Environmentalism. Environmentalism is a movement and belief system and philosophy, not an organization.
