      Also, this seems like a much, MUCH better PR move than throwing paint at masterpieces in fucking museums.
      I don’t know who thought that was something that would have moved the public opinion towards their cause.

        Well it did seem to do a good job bringing attention to their cause. And, the worst damage incurred over the dozens of demonstrations was some minor frame damage. Imo it was kind of a brilliant scheme to get worldwide attention for the price of some tomato soup

      seems like we’re finally getting to the point where we stop blaming the common people for climate change.

      I mean the “common people” are to blame. The 1% doesn’t live in a vacuum.

      Do billionaires carry a significantly larger portion of that blame? Yes. But we’re all on this gaseous rock together. Them being at fault doesn’t mean you can’t do your part. They couldn’t do what they do if the people weren’t buying the shit they’re selling.
