I can say for me they do. Whether it actually damages precious public things or not is irrelevant. The conversation isn’t “oh man, what can I do to stop climate change and stop big oil interests” it’s, "what a bunch of shits and now I want to burn tires to show I don’t support their cause.

They need to be public and not be assholes about it. I want to have more renewable energy options and less carbon products but blocking traffic and desecrating Stonehenge doesn’t give me any actionable things. Except to adamantly disavow their movement.

They think it starts conversation, but it doesn’t. Not the way they want. It’s not meaningful. And she said they wouldn’t actually do it if there was the possibility of damaging the art? Cletus isn’t going to take that into consideration. He’s going to say “fuck that idea I had about solar because the solar folks are damaging museum things!”

It’s really disappointing because I get and support the cause, but I truly believe they’re damaging any support with their short-sighted antics.

They need a better leader

Teenagers very much do. Apple does as well. You’ve obviously disconnected from it and so your opinion is irrelevant.

You ask how and fail to ask why?
