Why do the mass killers of the fossil fuel industry walk free while the heroes trying to stop them are imprisoned? asks Guardian columnist George Monbiot
Are you… seriously advocating for vandalizing Ferraris here? What the fuck?
What they’re doing is fundamentally harmless. You do realize that these paintings are behind glass, yeah? It’s not like they’re throwing soup directly onto canvases. They’re damaging museum glass at worst. The dollar amount of the damage is relatively minor, the whole point is civil disobedience and to draw media attention.
You say that like they were somehow shocked to find plexiglass in front of these paintings, and somehow didn’t see it or didn’t have the time (casually perusing a museum) to pivot to a different painting.
They didn’t damage it. They did throw soup at it.
Their tactic is also working. You’re aware of the event, who they are, what they stand for, and why they did it.
The people who vandalize Ferraris and private jets also get into the news and don’t damage irreplaceable cultural artifacts.

I haven’t heard of these events.
Their lack of success is irrelevant. They tried to damage it.
I was already aware we’re destroying the planet. I don’t need stupid kids trying to destroy art in a museum to inform me about that.
