Just Stop Oil is just as counterproductive as the German “letzte Generation” its just pulling the issues into a public view with a absolute negative view, driving most people away. Some might say they are sponsored by big oil so they do this, keeping the public against them and not the actual problem…

I personally say both are just there for free Cloud.

Sure, I would have stopped the fire, if only the fire alarm wasn’t that loud and unpleasent.

The fact that i have actually heared similar to that regarding Carbon monoxide alarms should tell you something :/

This is btw a very very different thing, one is acute and visible, the other is abstract and “in the future” human psychology is great at fighting acute things… But not abstract things. And your simplification of this isn’t helpful either.

The school I went to got destroyed in a flood, people die in my city due to heat in summer. It is already acute, but people choose to ignore it. Eco systems are under immense pressure all around the world. This is not something in a far away future, it is happening right now.

Don’t tell that to me, im doing something about it, i can still say that the destructive “protest” isn’t helping at all and that it just doesn’t make things better or bring positive attention towards the topic. Its still counterproductive.

And it not being acute means you don’t see the building burn, even though we can statistically show that it is, this is basic psychology “we have floods every year” “yeah it was way hotter outside when i was a child” you get it.
