And exactly what kind of protest is that? Again you still haven’t answered my question and more and more it seems that there is no such protest so we will all live miserable lives in the future but hey, at least people weren’t bothered those few times.
Also you can block roads and let emergency vehicles through. Accidents happen, roads get blocked for a variety of reasons on a daily basis. If people used cars less they would be less congestioned, do you also use that argument there?
Finally, people do die of climate change. Everyday and it’s not a small amount. Consider that on the other side of the equation whenever you make one.
Either way I’m calling this convo. Have a nice day and weekend. Hope it’s not too hot wherever you are.
lol I posted first! You responded to me. I was the one posing the question: What is the benefit of blocking the road? Any discussion outside of that scope is moving the goalpost and I won't entertain it. So far I've seen you propose a grand total of zero benefits so I'm just going to assume there are none.
My first comment literally responds to the purpose/benefit of blocking a road. But for that you’d need to know how to read.
But I agree, let’s end it here
Because the people you are "inconveniencing" don't make the decisions. They are mostly people just doing what they have to to survive. Find a way to inconvenience the decision-makers, and it will have everyone's support.
They vote. That’s not nothing and better than hoping that the people destroying the planet will suddenly become good people and stop doing that.
But again, all this complaining and no one is suggesting alternatives.. very telling.
You say that in response to a comment wherein I suggest an alternative. Very telling.
Find a way… what is it then?
You want someone else to do ALL your thinking for you? I've given you a way: make it a problem for the decision-makers. I don't have a list of your assets or skills. The details are up to you.
That tells me all I needed to know
Have a nice day
