I think caving has enormous personal and cultural value, I would never criticize someone for wanting to do it. I'm not questioning the value of caving, the activity, but the nature of an organization large enough or powerful enough to even be capable of bureaucracy.
The fact that organizational exclusivity can currently prevent some people from seeing some caves some of the time is no reason to fear a future wherein caves are generally unavailable to us. There is a major difference too between opposition to facilitating responsibility-free caving and the desire to restrict caving.
My stance is the opposite of defeatist. It removes satisfaction from dependency on wavering organizations and places it with the individual, the group, the family, within initiative and care.
I do not care about glory or convenience but I care deeply about caves and caving. While ego and competition can play a role in the activity of caving, the formation of indiscriminate groups beyond the natural processes of friendship is the greater manifestation of a lust for influence. Study the organic formation of clubs, from childhood on.
I'm nobody. I don't deserve or demand attention or justifications from anyone. While I am critical, on an ecological, spiritual basis, to the way caving is often done, caving is undeniably good. My criticism is driven by love for people and for places.
