Spanish climate activists sprayed red paint across a superyacht owned by billionaire Walmart heiress Nancy Walton Laurie in Barcelona on Friday, the second time the yacht has been the target of protests in the past two months.

Everyone’s complaining that this doesn’t do anything and is counter productive, but you know what this looks like to me?
Propaganda of the deed. Someone will look at this and think “I know better things to spray her superyacht with than paint…”
Make sure it’s something that will take her servants an extra hard time to clean
The bottom of the ocean would be pretty hard to clean.
They should put the billionaire on the bottom of the ocean, not the boat. The boat might be useful for something.
Billionaire’s yacht? Hardly. But it may be scrapped. Expensive furniture and tech sold, high quality engine and parts repurposed.
Yeah, then her servants would have to start filing paperwork and have another yacht pulled out of storage while they design the new one.
Not if the bottom-of-the-ocean thing happens when the oligarch in question is on board.
ADMIRALTY ORDERS
To Cpt. S. Technique
‘Intercept Walmart billionaire’s megayacht KAOS en route to extinction, INTENT ON CARRYING US ALL TO THOSE WATERS…Sink, Burn, or take her a Prize’
As an added bonus lots of chemicals and crap will be put into the environment.
Yup this sounds productive to vandalize someone’s boat.
Supposedly they used biodegradable paint. On that measure, you can’t fault them.
Tell us you didn’t read the article without saying that. Plus even if they had used normal paint, that’s literally nothing compared to what this yacht does on a regular basis.
