In the years I’ve written about political movements, I've often noticed that what you, the author, might consider reasonable and balanced, they view as an unfair and mean-spirited attack. You’re usually either with them and praised to the heavens; or against them, and dragged into the mud. It’s understandable, but unfortunate. It leaves little room in the middle.
I think this tendency explains Adam Ramsay’s response to my recent article in Foreign Policy, in which I suggest the next wave of radicalisation will be environmental.
