Two activists poured the powder over the protective case at the National Archives Museum last month to call attention to climate change, prosecutors said.

    I don’t get why so many comments online go “why does nobody protest?” then every time we see one all I see is “well that was pointless.” What are any of us doing? What “effective” protest has anyone in this thread done lately?

    At least we’re talking about it here, so they did something clearly. Throwing that powder is more than anyone here can claim to be doing.
