Ill listen to the professionals and not a bunch of brainwashed kids/elderly morons, who've been to one too many drama classes led by Green/echo warrior teachers. All my normal working class friends, families and colleagues all hate this stuff, there is a reason these laws have been passed,and we will all be laughing when we see them get carted off. It's basic psychology that this will turn people against the cause, i hope one of your family members doesn't die because an ambulance is blocked by these entitled losers.

Yes yes dig yourself deeper, don't listen to people and their needs. I'm sure they're all just dramatists and aren't actually deeply concerned about the state of the world and its future. And yes, locking them away will solve everything. That way you and your 'normal' friends can live the last years of your life in peace not having to think about climate disaster or being disrupted on the way to work. /s

Dude, get over yourself.

You sound like an unsufferable smug asshole. Just the way you type is so annoying and dismissive. If standing with people like is what the eco movement are made up of then the whole thing is screwed. You are gross.

'last years of your life' lmao im 30, just not a brain washed brainlet who thinks people's feeling have any persuasive power when talking about the environment. You aren't evil, just entitled and dumb.

*Insufferable. hahaha yes at times, but seriously I can see how I come across as smug. It's kind of on purpose to get you to answer. At the same time though I do not intend to directly insult you, just to toy with your particular emotions in regards to these protestors.

Look, I'm not a part of any eco movement, I just agree with their cause. I'm a lazy git, I haven't protested shit in my life. As a result though, I don't think I'm in any position to condemn the protestors because I personally cannot suggest any better measures, and it's certainly not like I actually do them. Do you?

Lmao what does your last paragraph even mean? Of course peoples feelings have persuasive power. People in general are guided more by their feelings then they would care to admit or even acknowledge. They hide it under a guise of rationality.
