      They didn’t destroy anything, the paint can be removed without ruining the site, and they brought more visibility than sitting around with signs.

      I don’t have a problem with this.

        I’m not sure visibility is really what we need at this point. Is there anyone left on Earth that doesn’t know about it? I think what we need instead is political mobilization and coalition-building to increase our political clout and ultimately win elections and create legislation.

          Yeah I think awareness where they ruin yachts and private planes is better than destroying common cultural heritage. Wtf

            They probably know that if they put corn starch on Stonehenge they’ll be in jail for a few days and get community service, but if they put spray paint on a billionaire’s yacht, they’d get shot.

              Well the top comment was “fuck these people” so if the goal was to build broad public support it is having the opposite effect.

              Alternatively, EVERYONE is cheering for those fucking Orcas, so… Imagine being dumber than a whale.
