Are Just Stop Oil's vandalism of art museum a bad way to protest ?

Driver2 · M
Yes I think they should either light themselves on fire to protest or get a job
@Driver2 lol
@Driver2 I second that proposal.

@Driver2 One thing. They have committed a crime. They need to be arrested and prosecuted to the full extent of the law. It's called DESTRUCTION OF PROPERTY.

what a bunch of losers.

Yes--this does not help the cause--don't destroy culture or property...elect peopel who will make a difference and educate people
@Docdon23 agreed

Since they aren't actually damaging the paintings, eh, big deal. Kinda bad optics, but it certainly grabs attention and they seem able to capitalize on that with meaningful follow-ups.
@OggggO It has a negative response too by the public

Yes, but only because it is not having the desired effect. They are pissing off people who are sympathetic to the cause while having no effect at all on the people in power.

Yeah…..
not really sure the carbon footprint of oil paintings
@SW-User maybe they see it as an oil painting?
SW-User
@Nexus it was an oil painting but that painting isn’t harming anyone
I know they were trying to make a point but that form of protest wasn’t the brightest
@SW-User I agree

It's typical of the goose stepping left.
Things haven't changed since the original liberals protested items they don't like.

It's vandalism bordering on terrorism. I can tell you how I'd get them unstuck from that wall.

Of course!!

Like, if they were mannequins, they'd be praised by some weird old guy into, abstract stuff
@Andromedanian I don't understand, what ?

@Nexus those two girls, look like they belong to some abstract modern art exhibition. Like on that image, it looks as though if they were wax figures or something, you know, they could be made into an abstract "art" piece themselves.

I meant to say that with how funny/uninteresting many abstract art pieces are nowadays, this could be deemed art and I wouldn't be surprised
Jail them and make it known to their ilk that until sufficient compensation is raised to restore/repair the damage done, these vandals will remain jailed.

They look like an abstract "piece", in that one picture
Exxon just had a record quarter.
😄
@LamontCranston So what has that got to do with how they protest ?
@Nexus I'm suggesting that these criminal activities (so-called "protest") are not going to be successful.
