Beyonceist Posted October 23, 2022 Posted October 23, 2022 People are starving so let us waste this perfectly fine mashed potato.
gustavothehuman Posted October 23, 2022 Posted October 23, 2022 These acts bring more attention to the act iself than the problems they are trying to denounce
Heldenzeit Posted October 23, 2022 Posted October 23, 2022 Can they come up with something else? We've seen this.

Summer Boy Posted October 23, 2022 Posted October 23, 2022 wtf is wrong with these brain dead people ? First in France, then in the UK and now in Germany? Have these idiots ever heard about iconoclasm? Art is sacred.
The Next Day Posted October 23, 2022 Posted October 23, 2022 (edited) That's staged with the consent of the museum. No way they just entered with buckets of mashed potatos without the staff suspecting anything Edited October 23, 2022 by The Next Day
flower moon Posted October 23, 2022 Posted October 23, 2022 yall are dumb. the paintings are protected. but its funny to see the outrage of "damaging" art. do you have this same energy for environmental damage? doubt it
Velvet Night Posted October 23, 2022 Posted October 23, 2022 Why do they keep attacking the works of people who had been dead for a long time before climate change had been identified as a problem. Why aren't they vandalizing the property of the CEOs of big polluting corporations, or something? Paintings have nothing to do with climate change. All they accomplish is a raising aversion to actually do something against climate change in the general populace.

Stunts like this don't really change anything.

Attempting to vandalize any Big Oil CEO's property would get you turned into Swiss cheese by their security detail's AR-15 bullets, and pretty much US courtroom would rule in their favor. If someone is alienated to the existential cause of climate change by pink-haired edgelords throwing tomato soup at a painting, they were never going to be sympathetic to the cause to begin with. Nothing is being done right now. The environmentalist movement is at its most defeated state right now with their aversion to nuclear power as a transitory energy source (due to very real concerns about how disastrous the effects of nuclear power being mismanaged are) and drilling for oil having increased its capacity more than ever before under supposedly environmentally-conscious world leaders like Joe Biden.
shinri Posted October 23, 2022 Posted October 23, 2022 I get the idea to get some noise around the issue, but isn't it counter-productive and throws people off?
