Ukraine set a SMART goal.

  • Specific - they intend to destroy an oil refinery with a missile
  • Measurable - there are a countable number of oil refineries in Russia
  • Actionable - sending a missile can destroy oil refineries
  • Relevant - Russia having oil refineries is bad
  • Time-oriented - Ukraine can launch missiles to destroy oil refineries any time

Just Stop Oil did not set a SMART goal.

  • Specific - Unclear what they will throw onto which painting, and when they will throw it
  • Measurable - How do they measure a successful tomato juice throw?
  • Actionable - Anybody can throw tomato juice.
  • Relevant - Unclear how throwing tomato juice onto paintings is relevant to climate change
  • Time-oriented - has no plan for when to throw tomato juice

Make of this information what you will

Wow, a SMART goal joke. Don’t believe the negative Nancies. Lemmy is different from Reddit.

I wonder if some environmental orgs/charities would be able to throw some money to Ukraine for the use of oil refinery destruction.

[-] khannie@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

They already have quite specific giving options. I'm pretty sure they would be happy to add a "destroy oil refinery output" one.

The relevance is that oil companies can ruin the planet forever and nobody cares, while someone can temporarily take a painting off display and the entire world calls for their heads

Like, imagine if people reacted to oil spills with the same vitriol and hatred that they react to someone tossing some tomato juice on a pane of glass

I seem to recall a statistic about Russia's monthly or yearly oil seepage from their pipelines being greater than the deepwater horizon spill. It's terrifying to think about how much contamination there must be globally from similar nation-states or corporations who simply lack any concern. People should be losing their minds. Maybe if we had crucified the exxon incident waaaaay back when...

I've joked for years leftists never accomplish anything because they don't set smart goals.

Thank you for helping me let my coworkers know I'm not working right now.

A community for your defence shitposting needs

Rules

1. Be niceDo not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.

2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes

If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Random twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Low Hanging Fruit thread.

3. Content must be relevant

Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.

4. No racism / hatespeech

No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.

5. No politics

We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.

6. No seriousposting

We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.

7. No classified material

Classified information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.

8. Source artwork

If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.

9. No low-effort posts

No egregiously low effort posts. These include Social media screenshots with a title punchline / no punchline, recent (after the start of the Ukraine War) reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Low effort thread instead.

10. Don't get us banned

No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
