[Cubus]

It's almost like the WEF is paying it's minions to tarnish the artwork, so there is an excuse why it need to be moved to the "nuclear bunker" for rehabilitation... WEF's not planning a dirty bomb in Ukraine or anything like that to try to trigger a larger war with Russia with NATO involvement... Get all the art to the hunker... But sir, won't the public notice if all the art work goes missing? Have some ANTIFA throw mashed potatoes on the glass first, so no body suspects anything unusual is happening. Get to it, chop chop...

[BeMuse]

Tell them they are fighting climate change by doing it, that will get them riled up. Oh those ANTIFA presents, such useful idiots...

One of the stupidest ways to make an argument about not being able to feed a family (which these clowns will never have) is throwing food on a painting.

[Cubus]

Yeah, it's pretty weird you say "we won;t have anything to eat" and then throw food on the painting. Illogical.

[Apulu_Imback]

I really hate it when someone's art is destroyed. I don't know anything about politics in this case nor do I want to know but I respect any sort of art very much and it makes me genuinely and deeply upset that people are dragging this creativity in the mud of politics.

[Cubus]

Well, I believe it's hypocritical when they say "by 2050 we won't have anything to eat, because of climate change" but throw mashed potatoes at the painting.

Who's wasting food here?

[Apulu_Imback]

I know right, why the hell are they dragging art in this? It isn't a pollutant. They be wasting food while saying we will starve by 2050.

[AmandaYVR]

Such losers. Can't stand these types. Put them in the same pile as the ones who make blockades on highways during rush hour commute times.

[OlderAndWiser]

Acting like children is NOT a way to earn respect for your political beliefs! I think these people should be prosecuted and given substantial jail sentences.

[Cubus]

To be honest, I think which such actions they would make that the whole movement would be laughed at and not treated seriously "those are these lunaticks that destroy paintings" and forget what their aim is.

[OlderAndWiser]

Absolutely!

[Cubus]

I mean - I have 2 or 3 more of "actions" of these activists from just the last week. Just questions limits a day (and not wanting to ask the same all the time).

I believe people start not to treat them seriously

Selfish and ignorant cowards. The countries in which they are “protesting” are the most progressive and tolerant. They’d make a bigger splash, probably literally, if they tried that shit in China or Iraq. But they won’t, because it’s obviously not THAT important to them. If the news would stop giving them air time, they’d just go away like the spoiled children that they are.

[Guy13]

These people live a Nietzschean philosophical view. Art is not high on their list nor are people... especially the Capitalists.

The Climate Change, Big Environment, and Depopulation people incorporate all the Nazi, Communists, Democracy, and Republic entities under one Umbrella. It is a Nietzschean and Darwinian conjoined worldview.

[normalice]

It wasn't destroyed. It was in a glass case and they will have to wipe it off. Nothing more. Why lie?

[NathanDavis]

kind of puzzling... is it not?

how much people are so invested on narratives, that all of them are so willing to ignore the reality of it...

it is just a damned panel they touch, every time... lmao

[888theGreat]

others threw soup on a Van Gogh. Said it was over high oil prices. They are spoiled brats that believe in the fiction called global warming. I think they should be stripped naked and whipped in center square , at least 10 stripes

[TrueConfection]

That is so sad and it doesn't help their cause at all.

[888theGreat]

when they through soup at Van Gogh's , people ooed and awed then started yelling for security. So they got what they wanted and that was attention

[FunkyMonkee]

What'd you expect? They're a bunch of brain dead sheep that have NO evidence to back up their goofy claims!!

[NathanDavis]

all those transparent panels are insured... are they not?

[Lucy68]

It's extremely disrespectful and they're behaving like unruly/uncivilized barbarians

[bean2k21]

That sho is a wate of good mashed potatoes. I likes mine with chicken gravy and fried chicken

[Anonymous]

Lefties up to their usual destructive hi jinx.

[OddBeMe]

Least they stuck around for the consequences. Right wing protesters seem to hit and run like cucks.

[MrTaboo]

Do what the Germans did.
