someone finally had enough of those idiotic protestors blocking the roads

@wildbill83 What,you mean kill them?

Oh, they certainly display no intelligence or awareness: the more rabid their waffle the less I believe they learnt any of the basic science and engineering principles from a combination of school education, personal experience and general knowledge.

Do they know the difference and relationship between energy and power? Could they even name more than one or two type of energy, and tell us the common, primary nature of all energy?

Do they know what crude oil provides apart from fuels - and the glue with which they stick themselves to things?

Do they know the principle of efficiency in engineering terms?

Or why, until a suitable, satisfactory and sustainable alternative becomes standard; why and how coal is still used to "make" iron - why [i]not[/i] steel - and which third mineral is necessary to that process, for what purpose?

Which types of "plastics" are environmentally harmful, and how?

If we "just stopped oil" could we still manufacture, install and maintain the types of wind-powered alternators and associated transmission equipment used now, to the same standard, especially off-shore?

.... And many more [i]simple, basic [/i]facts.

@ArishMell We are literally made out of carbon, and our entire society is literally made out of oil & it's byproducts

any "thing" that thinks we can simply do away with both is of absolutely no benefit to humanity. Killing them would be more of a favor than an act of malevolence.

On the other hand, they're more than welcome to shed themselves of any reliance on oil (their homes, their cars, the clothes they wear, etc.), and go live under a rock somewhere and eat their own shit (that contains carbon too, "net zero" remember...) 🤔

@wildbill83 Oh, yes, they certainly are hypocrites as well as ignorant.
