The whole point is not doing all that

It is outdated. It just requires two clicks.

Sure but you can hardly compare this to any of MLK’s protests. As far as I’m aware, he never harmed pieces of ancient history. He got to the root of the problem and did things like sit-ins in white only restaurants. It’s two different kinds of pissing people off.

Radical in my mind is burning down an oil plant. Going after a piece of history is disgusting. At least ruffle the feathers of the people you’re standing up to.

All I’m really trying to say is their methods make the environmental movements look bad. I hate that. I want things to get better. I don’t think they’re doing anything to help that. Go after something relevant.

Man I agree with you. I just feel sick when I see harm being done to such an ancient piece of history. What reason is there for it? Go after something actually related to the problem at least.

There’s no proof but what else could be these people’s problem? They have to know what they’re doing to the image of people who do care about the environment. It’s not like they’re helping. I don’t get it.

Maybe a little. Hold a shirt up to your face and you’ll still see light.

The video in the article shows them testing with an electric leaf blower.

I’d choose no tip every time

He does it on purpose. He wants his art to be experienced a certain way. That way is in a theater with the best sound tech. I agree it’s horrible, but I don’t think it will stop.

Grove and thicket are the only two I’ve ever actually heard. I’d go with grove.

Have you ever played the telephone game? Things change as people retell a story. Science is based on information directly from the source. It has to be verifiable. It’s ok to use the stories to learn about a culture and their history, but they aren’t suitable for science.

Everything on the Internet is stolen from somewhere. Reddit was at least half twitter screenshots.

No discovery is useless. Even if it isn’t used now, it could lay the groundwork for more useful discoveries later.

Saving power for even a few extra months still saves money. You can have both a heat pump and a normal gas furnace. They aren’t even that expensive. If you have a high heating bill, it could pay itself off in a few years.

Just put the laser high enough above the ground, like in orbit, and nothing will ever reach the lens.

How exactly is that a strawman argument? You act like technology does nothing for us. I agree that fighting for higher wages and other protections also makes things better. I don’t understand why any of this makes the luddites right. Tech literally does work for us. You say tech makes people appear richer but it really only hurts us. What about medicine? What about the learning we can do through the Internet? What about the million other things that we can do that our ancestors couldn’t?

Yeah bring back telephone operators too while we’re at it! No one should ever lose a job! Jobs are a person’s whole life and they should get to do it even if something else could do it better!

Stopping tech from taking jobs just doesn’t make any sense. If we did have the perfect economic system, having that tech would lower the overall amount of work that needs to be done. That is a good thing. We should fight for fair labor practices, but fighting to keep labor itself around is the wrong idea. Why keep useless jobs around? Just to keep people employed?
