...and now they're in a shelter in place because of *checks notes unexpected rain, unusual climate change related weather.
One of the least climate friendly events out there but they go thinking they're pro nature and pro earth
Man the entitlement from the burners in this video is embarrassing AF.
attack the big corporations instead
That's the problem though. How do you even do that?
On December 10th, at around 6 p.m., 200 environmental activists suddenly stormed and “invaded” a Lafarge company cement factory of La Malle in Bouc-Bel-Air in the Bouches-du-Rhone, Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region in Southern France. Infrastructure at the plant was reportedly attacked using a variety of methods, including: sabotage of incinerators and electrical systems and devices; cable cutting; bags of cement cut open and spilled; damage to vehicles and construction equipment; damaged windows; and graffiti spraying.
Yep, don't remember who it was that I heard say something along the line of "If climate activists were really convinced they want to end the system that they can't deny is profitable to them, car dealerships wouldn't be able to have SUVs on their lot as they would be set on fire during the night, airports would get vandalized, gas stations blown up..."
Idiotic.

All that shit is insured

The people doing this, if they get caught get massive fines and jail.

Nothing changes
France has a democratic system. You want to make actual change, get involved in politics.
This highschool vandalism bullshit accomplishes nothing, except make environmentalist look like lunatics.

Now this is what I LOVE to see. Take a note, road blockers.
You stop buy their products
Individual action within the rules of capitalism will never be enough to actually get stuff done. @punkisundead@slrpnk.net has the right idea here. If you want to actually hinder the corporations, you need to make it impossible to stay in business, no matter how they influence the government and rig the system in their favor.
All those SUVs and people cant drive off road... Also quite telling what kind of people are going to burning men in what kind of cars, in regards to its supposed spirit and culture...
I watched with no audio, but was there something that made it appropriate for the ranger to pull a gun on those protesters?
I don't know that blocking a road like an asshat merits deadly force.
This is the US. you can be shot for eating a burger in a car park
I'm well aware. Just surprised no one else mentioned it, figured I missed something.
