Well if you're interested in results, you can look at XR's own statement about it -- nobody capitulated to any of their demands. But hey, at least some people got harassed at the airport, so that's got to be some kind of accomplishment, right? Cool story!
and, now I repeat, to me it seems they raised awareness,
And if you think any publicity is good publicity, that's nice. But if you consider the fact that everyone's already aware that shit's bad for the environment, and have had it drilled into their heads for decades, it doesn't really sound like much of an accomplishment in and of itself, does it? I mean, is there anyone anywhere who didn't know that anything involving emissions is bad for the environment? Anyone? Bueller??
Well, maybe people forgot somehow. Or maybe XR should focus on strategies that reach people instead of trying to guilt trip them into the ground, like gobshite laughably tried to do here. I mean, if getting somewhere is the goal. If spinning your wheels and potentially making environmentalists look foolish is the goal, well then what can I say?
which is as needed as it was with CO2 emissions not that long ago. We can argue this senseless. I think - you think, you know how it goes, cool stories. What is the point? Its not like we can prove each other, ourselves respectively, right or wrong.
You clearly haven't been following the conversation. And that's okay, it's mostly just me pointing out the same obvious thing, and one person after another ignoring it and going on a righteousness streak. "B-b-but you don't have the answers for me! Now you must feel shamed!!" Right and wrong have nothing to do with it. It's just another stupid tactic, and silly me for pointing out it's a stupid tactic.
Perhaps Pussy Riot showing their tits in a church was deaf and they should .. pour all that energy into figuring out a way that will actually accomplish something besides pissing off people trying to go church, but this is all bullshit. If anything, they have a good and rational cause, now Cito is all happy, they believe in and they are doing something. Probably more than most of us.
You're of the mind that doing anything, no matter how thoughtless, is worth something. Cool story. You folks want to ignore what seems like the really obvious negative impacts of such a strategy, cool story. That's fine. But if folks like gobshite want to ignore it and spew their righteous indignation at me, I'll just point and
