They did say what works and what doesn’t. Attack private jets and block oil refineries, don’t spray paint Stonehenge or paintings. It’s not hard to figure out what’s going to be popular and what isn’t.
Yeah, people don’t care that it washes off easily, they don’t hear about that part, the point is that those actions aren’t popular, painting/blocking private jets is, so just do more of that instead?
My better idea is to not do dumb shit that actively turns people (voters) against the cause. Egg some politicians, paint some private jets, people love that shit.
Besides just saying “AwArEnEsS”, what does JSO actually achieve?
Every single person on the planet is aware of climate change, what we actually need to do is convince people to take action. JSO actively convinces people to vote against action on climate change.

I’m still trying to get my husband’s uncle to get off his easy out of “well I guess it’s happening, but humans didn’t cause it.” He, along with a lot of other people, are in an echo chamber. Obviously plopping pigment on monuments isn’t going to do shit to convince them, but I don’t know what will.
The point I’m trying to make is that despite the good stuff they may do, it’s overshadowed by the dumb shit that’s turning people against the cause.
Those actions didn’t achieve much, and I’d say anything they did achieve has been undone by their other antics.
Do you know anyone who has been convinced by JSO to take more action against climate change? It’s only people who are already onboard cheering them on.
I know a few people who have become more anti green because of JSO, and general consensus among anyone I know is that JSO is doing more harm than good.
I do question the awareness they’re raising tho, it’s not getting people on their side. It’s not. Full stop.
It’s pushing people away and distracting from the actual issue. People liked the private jet attack, people fucking loathed the stone henge stunt.
Just stop oil is a news topic for Talk TV and GB news to make people hate the idea of protecting the environment, and it’s working.
If you’ve got better ideas, we need them, get out there and get on it. As it is, we’re sleepwalking into catastrophe.
Bomb them

NOBODY SPRAYPAINTED STONEHENGE
they threw corn starch on it. Corn starch.
actually loads of people do spraypaint stone henge, but JSO didn’t.

Hardly anyone supports painting/blocking private jets. Remember, nearly everyone believes they’re just temporarily embarassed millionaires.
Defacing art is a historical form of protest. The Suffragettes vandalized multiple paintings which are now memorialized for it.

… The root of the thread you’re replying’s main body is stuff JSO has actually achieved.

And you let them? What kind of limp-dick shit is this.
