this is a sincere question…isn’t it bad for cows not to milk them? doesn’t it hurt them to not be milked?

No idea, but I do know it’s idiotic to dump perfectly good food.

I didn't know the paintings were protected, until the environmental terrorists started doing this. The fact that the art is protected, makes their actions MORE stupid, if that's even possible.

you're right, I don't understand the link between animal agriculture and global warming, I know what your side is claiming, but I don't know what's fact.

Sorry if I'm not planning to become a vegan on the say-so of those who think the solution is to throw tomato soup on a Van Gough.

New York pastor and ReAwaken tour host say they were harassed by prosecutors

Guess that’s why you never heard of them

If they know the art has glass in front of it protecting it how are they attempting to destroy it?

So you admit the painting was protected but you still believe that by throwing mashed pot. at the art they're attempting to destroy the art?

Seems like a contradictory statement.

not if they didn’t know the art was protected. the geniuses who threw tomato soup on a painting last week, yelled “what’s more important! life or art?”.

that suggests they believed they were destroying the art.

if they were rational, they’d be republicans.

Are the oil companies going to respond?
Are any people going to immediately halt using petroleum products because of this?
Are Investments going to shift away from oil investments?

Why is it so hard to just say they’re idiots? They threw potatoes at a painting and glued themselves to the wall…..there’s not a lot that’s more idiotic than that.

That is a very deep and key question, and gets to the heart of where the left is right now. None of them will ever just say "my god they're idiots". Because as Jordan Peterson says, they don't merely "believe" in liberalism. They are enslaved by it. The Narrative can never be wrong.

He calls it "the pathology of ideological possession", and he's right. They are literally possessed by liberalism.

Ok, Einstein, how come you didn't tell us what's actually happening. The group that did this last week, as they threw tomato soup on priceless paintings, yelled "what's more important, art or life"?

Why did they yell that as they were doing what they did?

jim thinks they are terrorist.. LOL but protesting in a state house armed is Freedom

It's not something that's going to change what oil companies or Governments do or don't do .. and I doubt they think that was the objective .

But their stunt did what it was intended to do It drew some attention to an issue they clearly care about .. and call it dumb or smart it matters little to me
it's not like we haven't seen this style of protest before Across the planet

that suggests they believed they were destroying the art. actually you are totally wrong as they said they knew they weren't destroying the art.

“I want to make one thing perfectly clear, we did no damage to the painting whatsoever,” Phoebe Plummer, a climate activist who, along with Anna Holland, threw the soup at the famous painting and then glued their hands to the gallery floor on October 14.


if they were rational, they’d be republicans. That is funny as the Rep. deny science and do nothing. Seems like they are smarter than most of the R party.

But you're 100% wrong as they knew the art was protected

“We’re not asking the question, should everyone be throwing soup at paintings?” said Plummer. “What we’re doing is getting the conversation going so we can ask the questions that matter.”

Which again Paul, tells us nothing about what they set out to do. Real MENSA candidates.

They're clueless idiots, that's all they are.

The wussification and dumbing-down of todays kids, is going to serve my kids quite nicely. My kids work their butts off and know how to take "no" for an answer sometimes. These kids will have no chance against my kids in the real world. None.
