Protestors protest in the middle of highway…guy on parole begs them to move so he doesn’t get arrested for missing work….they refuse

[Payday23]

Lol of course TLR is here to say protesting is bad. Y’all love this fukking right wing media slop

Nah. Blocking traffic of normal folks who have no control over it ain't gonna help. I ain't going to listen to someone who's made me sit in traffic over climate change.. Protest at the Capitol, the Congress people houses etc. All that's going to happen is Congress laughing at you when they hear the news.

Yeah, they'll elect people like DeSantis who make it legal to run over protestors.

This right here and it's fukk that pos

I'm fully aware of the negative climate effects on black people. And no, it is not as big of a threat as white supremacy has been to black life for centuries.

I also think the whole omg the world is going to end and we're all going to die if we don't do something about climate change now is liberal fear mongering and exaggeration to an extent.

Like I said, I believe in the science. And its important for it to be addressed. But climate change is not something to sit in the street to protest about. It ain't on the same scale as our continued injustice and it won't be in the near future. This is white liberals being over dramatic like they tend to be sometimes.

Driver: What you in the middle of the street for i gotta get to work?

White liberal a$$hole: To protest climate change because our elected officials ain't doing enough to address it. I'M NOT MOVING.

Driver: Get your bytch ass out the way.

A brain so smooth….

Protests HAVE to be strategic. Yes you can cause disruption, but who or what is this protest disrupting exactly? Are the people being disrupted aware of the issue at hand? Are they informed of the important information regarding the issue? Are they aware what action they can take? How do the protesters know they're not disrupting a bunch of people who agree with their stance and are already voting in the desired manner? What is the direct positive impact made from this protest? What is the follow up from this protest?

They don't have the answers and neither do you. Which is why people are saying, they're just being disruptive with no strategy. And disruptive with no strategy is not a good strategy.

Strategic disruption can and has been useful as you all have pointed out, but this isn't that. You're actually doing yourself a disservice by comparing this act to other successful acts of social activism in the past.



Simply not true breh. Politicians will not lose sleep over this AT ALL.

This sounds exactly like the people who were mad at people protesting about black men and women being murdered in the streets.

“The only protests that are good are ones I say are good and done perfectly”

Just avoiding the topic all together to whine about u feeling uncomfortable

I'm sorry, what is the point of your argument? That disruption in protests doesn't work?

I'm tired of you idiots placing the burden on everyone else. Prove to me that disruption in protest in ineffective, either through a case study or by compiling the most notable protests and determining if the least disruptive ones were the most effective. There, go do that then get back to me because you are arguing against one the most fundamental and basic principles of protest. I'm not sure why anyone should take you seriously at this point, put in some work then get back to this.

Im not putting together any case studies if its so effective and moral that even when people can be immediately killed from it YOU need to prove its effective .If its so obvious you would think it would have plenty of examples. The only thing not being taken seriously is this pathetic attempt at protesting. Protesting what? To what end? What reasonable actionable demands are being asked for? Getting people to sit in a fukking street isnt an organized effort for change its just being obnoxious and amnoying. If youre so certain of its effectiveness WHY DONT YOU PUT MONEY ON IT. Easiest way to see if someone is being honest or a dikk eating idealogue.

Climate change protestors ain't got no smoke for ocean freighters. cruise ships, or private jets which pollute more than the equivalent of millions of cars


Also I know they don't think beyond fossil fuels. If you push for electric vehicles then you won't have exhaust from internal combustion engines, cool......but now electric vehicles can weigh double that of current vehicles so they're going to require more frequent tire changes and put more stress on roadways so they'll require repairs and more maintenance.....so now we got more tires being manufactured and more asphalt being produced and poured...
