Activists Hold West Hostage While Real Heroes Lay Dying

There’s a trend among European climate catastrophists and doom-mongers to stage media events in which earnest protesters toss food at classical artworks, after which the bold activists glue their hands to the floor/wall and spout off about how humanity is heading for extinction.

Unless the state takes firm, immediate and generally authoritarian means to bring a halt to our current lifestyles. A recent clip (like this one from Twitter) shows how carefully staged such events are, and how perfectly canned – and utterly self-defeating – the speeches are.

Setting aside the fact these stage activists are tossing food at art when they say people are starving, or that their actions, right down to the glue they use to stick their hands to the floor, are made of petroleum products…how does any of this advance their agenda?

It doesn’t…unless their agenda is fundraising, which probably works. Or take the example of a group of “rebel” scientists who bravely glued themselves to the floor/walls of a VW showroom in Germany. It’s a story, told in episodes on Twitter…and it doesn’t lack for completely unintentional hilarity.

Mass protest remains an effective way to get attention for one’s cause – witness the protests underway in Iran over the brutal Islamist regime. Those protesters actually risk something important – their freedom, their lives, just for starters. The green cosplayers in Europe risk very little personally (it depends on how tough that glue really is). But they may have succeeded on one level: making a mockery of themselves and their agendas.
