    That will… make them use solvents to clean it, adding unnecessary pollution on top of the paint itself. For exactly zero positive effects. Not even a message, just random paint here and there.

      “Don’t protest like that”.

      At least they made a statement and got people talking.

        That is not a statement, that is just kids doing stupid things. Perhaps they hit the right target, but still.

          I agree with what you said. I feel the same about burning Teslas. Yes, fuck Elon and I hope he… you know. But all these fires, especially batteries and charging stations… isn’t the environment already fucked enough?

          Fuck Elon tho.

              Their statements about how our environment is doing should not be our reference.

                The actions taken against teslas are effective because the people who are the intended recipients of the message are actually understanding what is being said to them.

                Fuck sakes. Take a moment to see what the response is before you say that it isn’t working.

                These two dumbfucks probably don’t even know what environment actually means. So can’t blame them lol.

            Yes, they could easily cause a lot of damage just by scratching them etc. etc.

              Yes. Not condoning violence or vandalism 😅 But scratch, slash, break, kick,… literally anything but fire.

      She clearly states there’s a climate disaster, and that we need to “put climate on the ballot” in the upcoming election. Considering she only had ten seconds until she was taken into custody, she did pretty well.

      Given your concern about our environment, you’ll be happy to know that Extension Rebellion typically uses non-toxic and environmentally friendly dyes and paints for their protests. I’m guessing this protestor did as well.
