Reply to comment by Cautious_c in Exxon Mobil must reinstate whistleblowers fired over Permian Basin projections by zylstrar

My man, the reputation of being a whistleblower for Exxon Mobile is incredibly marketable. Some NGOs would kill for the guy.

I would think that orgs wouldn't wanna be associated with them for fear of pushback from big oil. Seems more like... Infamy to me

And why exactly push back on the whistleblowers exactly? Let's imagine Greenpeace here for a second. What makes them fear the legal repercussions?

I looked up Greenpeace. That's a cool org. I would think that the gradual destruction of their industry is more of a threat than legal fees. Unless there's enough individual cases to do some real damage
