I think you got my point about not tarring all environmentalists with the nihilist brush. Nihilism is illogical to somebody who genuinely values life. So, maybe "nihilist environmentalist" is a paradox, which in practice may well inhibit those who daydream of reincarnation as "the right virus" from acting on their fantasies. I don't rate the threat from even Earth First! to be anywhere near the same magnitude as Islamist radicals.

You might ask yourself whether you're being a little opportunistic to use the language of anti-terrorism to attack your traditional philosophical opponents. Not everybody who disagrees with you is a terrorist.
