Examples include Just Stop Oil and Extinction Rebellion here in the UK.
Personally, I think some charities are groups are genuine in their outburst wanting large firms to stop strangling the natural beauty for profit, however for me there is a red line that can be crossed.
Blocking roads preventing medical care, people going to work, interview and possibly a nice vacation away. This doesn’t really help but make the public look at your group in a bad light.
The same can also be said when attempting to destroy priceless art for a cheap publicity stunt knowing it’ll get clicks on social media.
TLDR - I think some groups are genuinely good whilst others are just shouting in a speakerphone, pissing everyone else off.
What do YOU think?
Who ever is inconvenienced by stuff you do will lash out right there. People get angry at car accidents where people died, and you are inconveniencing them on purpose? If you don’t have enough sympathizers you get burned on a cross.
Even if those people would nominally support you if they were at a distance. Such is human nature.
I don’t know how to go about it and keeping public sympathy when you need to shock people into action…
