      Trump is still pink white. The makeup perhaps functions like the masks that entertainment wrestlers wear.

      Yes, it’s my favorite form of protest: easily ignorable, and sparking no conversation.

      The worst part about Vincent Van Soup is that people still talk about it two years later. Or maybe the worst part is that it still prompts people to ask “Is climate change really so dire that they were justified?” and have very long conversations about it.

      Terrible!

      I prefer Orange Paint. Nobody will remember Orange Paint by tomorrow, and that’s what I call a good protest.

        Yeah, talking about what shitheads those people were, not about any meaningful action on the actual issue.

        Is the orange paint a good protest? I don’t think so. But at least it actually is a protest. The action being taken is actually related to the message they want to convey.

        Throwing soup at a painting is not protesting or activism. It’s just vandalism while wearing a t-shirt.

          Same. Idiots make it less, not more likely to see actual change.

          If I went out and smeared yogurt in the face of every kid in a stroller to call attention to the cause, please stop me.

      They ran out of priceless art, I guess. Too bad, I was hoping they’d ruin something else for generations to come. Maybe next time they can knee-cap Hank Green. That’ll really show those nasty capitalists.
