Let’s make this simple.
Elon for example is worth 180 billion. His private jet, which costs $17k/yr to refill, is worth $62 million, or 0.03% of his net worth.
The average person, maybe lower middle class to middle class, is let’s say worth about $250,000. If they bought or leased a car worth $45k, that would be 18% of their net worth.
It is probably the equivalent, or LESS than the equivalent of someone in the middle class, buying a candy bar. And they can do it over and over again with no repercussions.
And jet fuel is incredibly pollutant, and billionaires pollute millions of more times in general than the average person.

I’m fully in support of these protesters and hope they don’t stop.
Fully in support of them targeting the mega rich. That’s how you get support
Glue your stupid hands to a fuckin motorway and stop your average guy getting to work, you deserve to get run over
Stinks to see ambulances stuck in traffic because some kids didn’t consider the consequences of their actions, though.
Don’t mess with critical infrastructure to “send messages”. Roads can be very critical, to many people.
