    When is it appropriate for climate protests to turn into climate violence? When is it appropriate for a victim to fight back? Or must we allow billionaires and conservatives to kill us all?

        I think it’s feasible anytime anyone does it.

        Probably achieve a bit of a copy cat effect as well.

        When will it get feasible? Things will just keep getting worse and by the time people decide to fight back it will be too late

              Can’t incite a revolution (lol) by staying under the radar.

              Like I said, it’s not feasible. It’s a pipe dream. Grow up and start doing the hard, boring, effective work.

                  The hard, boring, effective work is thankfully already being done

                  …no, it’s not. Not enough of it.

                  Stop being performative and go volunteer to coordinate a voter drive.

                  make it more expensive for them to continue,

                  This requires choosing better targets for the protests.

                  People in this thread are arguing that any kind of violence or inconvenience automatically helps the cause. But no. We’re just inconveniencing each other and distracting each other from… environmental issues.

                  The only reason to take part in protests that don’t target polluters is to look cool for your friends.

      These protests have no connection to the issue. I honestly think many of them are paid by oil companies to make the environmental movement look bad.

        Stopping personal traffic by blocking cars and being “annoying” in places that often are lit for no reason through entire nights are both protests very close to the issue.

        Very interesting! I hadn’t thought of that.

      Victims? They are the reason behind the climate change!

        Um. What?

        The victims of climate change are the normal people who are prevented from doing anything to stop it.

        Conservatives have worked hard for decades to make sure normal people are not able to curtail climate change in any way. There is a clear villain in the story of how we are being killed. It is conservatives.
