      George Washington Hayduke is one of the four main characters in The Monkeywrench Gang written by Edward Abbey. They’re a group of anarchists that destroy things like earth movers to prevent logging or drilling, and just generally fuck with private companies profiting off of public lands.

      Basically, they’re eco-terrorists.

          I would, but only if you promise that she isn’t a package deal with a wing-suited billionaire who’s made a deal with the police and the nearest mental health institution to forcibly incarcerate anyone who stands against his ownership of the country. If we pay for the Poison Ivy package, can we get a discount on the Mr. Freeze package, where we get a disgruntled-but-brilliant climate-scientist-cum-virologist who will spray SO3 into the upper atmosphere and synthesize a strong enough volcanic winter to balance out anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions?

        You mean awesome. They aren’t scaring people, they’re stopping a rape. If that scares the rapists, it doesn’t make it terrorism.
