Been seeing a lot of outrage thrown at them recently their protests and been seeing a lot of people trying to disrupt these protesters for “disrupting” them and that they could cause inconvenience to emergency services but at the same time,I feel as though these actions are necessary sort of to better spread the message since the bourgeois media is going to turn a blind eye to it. So, since I’m not really familiar with the whole thing, I want to see what you think of them.
I personally like what they’re doing. But overall I think their activism falls on deaf ears. I think a lot of movements like theirs makes the mistake of assuming that civili disobedience implies people will rally around your cause, just like MLK and civil rights. The public reaction seems to be quite the opposite. It’s unclear to me if the behavior of our species is sufficient to evade the worst of climate change tbh. It’s a movement much harder to get action on than basically any other topic
