It’s literally not a pitbull. Not only does it look like a dogo argentino they say in the video that it’s a dogo argentino.

How is a clampdown on peaceful protest anything to do with gun control? "First my school banned chainsaws, now they're banning mobile phones!"

I'm asking if these specific tactics show any signs of working. Because of they aren't, maybe the protestors should think about adjusting their methods. From the coverage I've seen, all they're doing is paying off the people in the middle instead of winning them over.

Are you asking if there's any evidence that protests cause change? Because there is plenty of that.

Or are you diminishing these protests specifically? If so, why?

There is a very good reason that Justice is depicted as wearing a blindfold. These barristers are flying in the face of that. It is not up to them to legislate from the bench or decide what is right and wrong. People who commit crimes or break the law invariably believe that they had a valid reason for doing so. It isn't up to barristers to decide if that reason is legitimate; it is up to a jury of peers of the accused. By refusing to prosecute based on their own political views, these barristers are effectively perverting the natural course of justice in this country.

This guy's logic is profoundly troubling. What's more troubling is that his vote counts as much as ours. And there are tons of people like him, who literally can't think past their own completely meaningless existence.

​

Not that any of us have much more meaning, but christ.. at least we are trying to continue the species and planet. Imagine thinking "welp, shits bad but it isn't directly my fault, so might as well just lay down and enjoy my job at Wells Fargo til it all ends."

I don't think running into racetracks trying to kill/seriously injure drivers is particularly peaceful.

Suppose a group of passengers on a boat suddenly notices that the boat is sinking due to a small hole, but that they all have buckets of varying sizes they could use to offset the incoming water.

​

Using your logic, only passengers with large buckets should bother throwing out water, because they will have the most impact.

​

In a life or death situation, WHICH THIS IS, do you think this is a wise decision if you want to give your boat time to reach shore or find rescue?

​

If small contributors do nothing, China certainly will not. Protests create pressure, which can and ALREADY HAS had an impact.

​

It's a good thing for you that society has built up safety nets for people with poor survival skills, cause yours are lackin.

Uhh... so if no one ever protested or advocated for anything to be done.... do you think anything would be?

​

This isn't a case of "protesting is the clear answer to sold all problems." It's a case of "protesting is one of the few things we CAN do to ensure the people that CAN do something, do."

​

Your logic is bad. I hope you've already realized this, considering everyone is telling you the same thing.

"Sorry, this content is not available in your region"

Why?

Disagreed, a snake and spider can get in anywhere and are sometimes poisonous. Coyotes and bears are more rare and often times cowards that will avoid humans.

Yeah... not from any of the countries with protests.

Oh? Is there evidence that these protests are inspiring anything other than annoyance?

If we keep the current course, the climate will collapse.

If all cars idle on the street from now until forever, the climate will collapse.

If cars idle for one day and it inspires change, the climate might not collapse.

Snakes and spiders are small (ok, not ALL of them, and there.. ok, not often) and can be anywhere. I’ve never seen a bear or coyote pack in my house or garage..

Nope, which is precisely why when looking at relative success or failure to minimise CO2 output, per capita is a better comparison. We are one planet, so arbitrary national boarders are less important than getting the global output down. It's via per capita you see where the best gains can come from.

Not creating tons of additional CO2 by forcing thousands of vehicles to idle in the street, for one.

They will if we let them.

Those artworks will be useless with no one to view them. Poor political decisions and weak management disrupt more emergency responses than these protesters ever could.

Redirect your outrage. This is all just a symptom of failures of leadership; don’t blame the people doing whatever they can to reverse these trends. What are you doing about it? Voting ever further to the right?

The Bunny Union (BUNION) should have been on top of this.

Yes. Destroying priceless works of art and halting emergency services will definitely stop climate change...

Oh no!

Thank goodness the good guys were around to put an end to their savagery, and restore a sense of justice in between all their acts of corruption!

Well since the republicans took over the house, this is all they have accomplished. Only for 2023.

Be sure to vote out people who are doing what you don’t want.

Do you think the atmosphere cares where the CO2 is coming from?

Well, they caused the congestion, so I'd say they stopped the emergency services.

I wonder if throwing soup on 200-year-old paintings is considered "peaceful".
