    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.

      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.

          anyone that thinks people will say ‘oh these guys are doing something I feel is stupid, I better learn what they have to say’ has never met a single human in their life.

            That’s funny, you realize not everyone will jump to the conclusion it was ‘stupid’ right away? Most will say, “they did what? Why?” Aka curiosity. We learn more. We understand. Then we decide if it’s stupid or not.
