When is it appropriate for climate protests to turn into climate violence? When is it appropriate for a victim to fight back? Or must we allow billionaires and conservatives to kill us all?
This requires choosing better targets for the protests.
People in this thread are arguing that any kind of violence or inconvenience automatically helps the cause. But no. We’re just inconveniencing each other and distracting each other from… environmental issues.
The only reason to take part in protests that don’t target polluters is to look cool for your friends.
Stopping personal traffic by blocking cars and being “annoying” in places that often are lit for no reason through entire nights are both protests very close to the issue.

to answer your questions:
Doesn’t matter if it’s appropriate. It’s not actually feasible right now.
When will it get feasible? Things will just keep getting worse and by the time people decide to fight back it will be too late
Answered your own question.
I think it’s feasible anytime anyone does it.
Probably achieve a bit of a copy cat effect as well.
Sure it is. Go get em, tiger.

Sounds more like he never actually accomplished anything except some prison time

Can’t incite a revolution (lol) by staying under the radar.
Like I said, it’s not feasible. It’s a pipe dream. Grow up and start doing the hard, boring, effective work.

…no, it’s not. Not enough of it.
Stop being performative and go volunteer to coordinate a voter drive.

These protests have no connection to the issue. I honestly think many of them are paid by oil companies to make the environmental movement look bad.

Very interesting! I hadn’t thought of that.
