100% agree. Just being a nuisance isn't enough. These protestors really ought to be attacking fossil fuel execs.

[-] Lols@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

folks need to start causing real, material damage to fossil infrastructure at the least

this wont stop unless the expenses of fossil fuels outweigh the profits, and people need to become those expenses

That's a more ideal way of doing targeting big businesses and fossil fuel execs through peaceful forms of protesting a good example of this is how some people in London and Glasglow are protesting ULEZ by vandalising ULEZ cameras if your going protest make sure it doesn't affect anyone in the general public

You do it then. Be the change you want to see in this world.

It still wouldn't change anything, other then get more security and anonymity for their immediate replacements.

Yeah exactly, that would be protesting against the actual problem not jsut disrupting random shit
