Crime Climate Activists Protest Against Fossil Fuel - By Vandalizing Art Museums.

[Renard]

Guarantee you that's astroturf. The point of front organizations is to introduce and give the illusion of widespread public support to what the ruling class have already determined they want to do to preserve their dominance and control: carbon taxation, smart cities, digital ID and programmable currency, the internet of things surveillance grid, and and so on. They're playing reverse psychology on this one though, it's all very clever. They ran a story on Fox News (which they also own) which said that Just Stop Oil is funded by an oil heiress. So they create the controlled opposition narrative that this is Big Oil funding crazy activists to make the real climate activists look bad. They have multiple nets to catch you with. First net is the mainstream narrative, second net is the controlled opposition narrative. What makes a controlled opposition narrative effective is that it strengthens the important lies: in this case, that climate change is real and you should care about it (in the form of living like a pauper for your billionaire masters). Details of what people believe aren't important as long as the central, pivotal lies are believed.

You're right, ship them off to Guantanamo for "enhanced interrogation" immediately.

I wouldn't go that far but destroying treasured cultural icon for political purposes goes beyond petty vandalism. Yes they failed or didn't want to succeed but it should be met with more concern than someone tagging a building etc

I don't deny that but calling them terrorists is making a mountain out of a molehill and seems more motivated by partisanship as most accusations of "t-terrorism!" these days are.

Oh well then it's just a difference of opinion but I can't see how it's a huge stretch to use the label

Maybe the point is that we seem to place more value on trivial objects than the planet all future people and living things will inherit

Why attempt to destroy a painting? If these activist scumbags really want to send a message then they should throw tomatoes at a wealthy idiot who constantly flies a private jet around or owns a yacht. They could pull some kind of stunt at one of those useless climate-change conventions where virtue-signalling politicians party it up and come up with ways to raise taxes to fight climate change.

It never ends with these loons.

Looks like modern performance art to me.

They should have been punched out for art's sake.

 

[MicroBrew]

These folks are nuts.
They damaged a very valuable one-of-a-kind piece of art. How does throwing food at a painting relate to climate change. How does damaging it make any difference. I suppose you could argue it makes headlines, which they must feel will make the public think about climate change.

 

[JudoThrowFiasco]

Almost as asinine as the animal activist who ran on to a football game. It was ultra satisfying watching Wagner lay him the fuck out.

 

[ocfightfan]

I don't see how bratty displays like this will save the planet. These attention seeking clowns really have nothing positive to contribute.

 

[Boxiana]

So...are they oil paintings, or something?

Underrated comment

They didnt need to do anything. Protests are meant to garner attention.

Just like how #BlackLivesMatter burned large trashcans because the fire gets high visibility to garner national attention.

Imagine if #BlackLivesMatter just simply marched and did nothing else? We would have no police reform. Chauvin mightve gotten 1 year in jail.

This is where you present your personal opinions as fact, without any evidence whatsoever.

There's no logical reason to speculate that judge Peter Cahill - or any of the Jurors in that case - made their decision base on vandalism, and you know it.

In fact, it was made very clear that the particular cruelty caught on tape - and corroborated by nearly 40 witnesses - was the reason that the State's suggested sentence guideline was doubled from 12.5 years to 22.5.

Be it Derek Chauvin, Kyle Rittenhouse, or Johnny Depp, you can thank a good judge and the smart jurors who made their verdict base on the actual evidence, not the noise in the media or the dumpster fires.

It's amazing how many of them look like this, too.

Honestly, as soon as you utter the word 'activists', regardless of what the cause is, you automatically picture people like this cunt above and you're correct 9/10 times. Activism mainly equals screaming and throwing tantrums, which when you think about it, makes perfect sense for these people to look like him above.

"I want you to hear, understand, and believe in our message so we'll throw soup on priceless and beloved art, pissing everyone off and obscuring whatever the hell our message is."

It should be hard to be that stupid. Guess it was too hard to clean up litter or plant a tree somewhere?

Ginger mega-receding combover + skirt and crop top?

Yeah, we should all listen to this guy

There is never a justification for arson. Neither was all the other destruction caused that YEAR across the country by BLM

You aren't a legal expert and have no crystal ball.

 

[evansusmc2]

imagine how the stock boy that has to clean this shit up feels lol.
But as you can see, this is clearly organized with an animal rebellion twitter account with 15k followers helping to organize and promote this stuff. How soon before one of these obviously very impressionable and mentally unbalanced individuals escalates things?

Imagine people in the Congo or Somalia watching this.

pretty sound explanation
