I do not think you can call it a social movement because it does not have any significant mass of people behind it and by its nature, never will.

Maybe if you consider the wealth of the in group vs out group. It makes more sense to me that way. Scary how few people it might need to keep the world from moving forward.

Social movements come in all sizes. Its a bunch of people who all agree on something. That is a social movement.

It is a social movement of note and importance because of the power wielded by its adherents.

It’s another bubble that a handful of people invented for themselves to insulate them from the reality of the effect on the world. It’s one of the most genuinely pathetic “movements” I’ve ever seen.
