1. Judge Hehir is the same psycho who sentenced Roger Hallam to 5 years for giving a talk on a zoom call.

   This part of the judiciary are nothing more than extensions of fossil fuel lobbying power.

   Btw he is also the same judge responsible for this headline

   > An on-duty police officer who had a threesome in a patrol car with a colleague and a drunk woman he offered to take home, has narrowly avoided jail.

2. Most of the paintings are protected by a glass (Idk about this one though) but the fact that we’d rather focus on the painting potential damage than the fact that none will be able to see them if we die because of climate anyway is what makes me lose my trust in mainstream medias. Blatlantly fueling misinformation.

3. Hello potential art destroying climate protestors. This is not the way to go about it.
   Organize a mass nudity event to take place in a wealthy conservative area. Tell them to expect more nudity as it gets hotter.

4. This type of protest only makes climate activists look like radicals who need to be jailed and ignored rather than listened to. You end up looking like the “End is Nigh!” guy in his cardboard panels yelling at a street corner.

   The world is more than aware of the problem, screaming and throwing things isn’t going to inspire more action or awareness. No one in a position to do anything sees this type of nonsense and thinks “oh wow I never heard of this issue before.”

5. They did not destroy art, the spilled soup over a glass with (great) art behind it.

6. Pretty short sentences for those two psychos.
