ThOsE iDiOtS!1!

Says the moron while not even taking 3 seconds to understand what they did and why they did it. Lol

Look how angry everyone gets about art and architecture whilst not even remotely having the same reaction about climate change and what it’s doing to our planet.

Not gonna lie, this was my thought process for some time. But protests aren’t meant to be comfortable.

I think that’s kinda the commenters point. Morons almost have a chance of connecting a few dots when it’s private jets. Half a step removed, and nope, morons won’t even attempt understanding

I think the point is to ragebait people into reading about it.

An educational campaign doesn’t work.

People get angry when the protests disrupt their day.

Peaceful protests happen literally everyday in the US in nearly every city and hear nothing about them.

The only way it gets visibility is it has to be disruptive, and the only way to get them to read/learn about it is to hook them in. And if Faux News has taught anyone anything, it’s that ragebaiting is fucking effective.

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:
