    Gosh, playing loud music?

    Leaving rubbish is annoying but considering who they’re protesting the pollution they’re causing isn’t even comparable to the rich assholes on the island.

    And, like, they’re Germans, of course they’re fucking drinking - Germany has a wide variety of beers, liquors and wines that are common staples.

    This feels like an excellent non-violent protest.

      I’m going to protest on the beach later next month. I think some time on the weekend when it’s warm and sunny. Might enhance the protest by reading a book and listening to some music, then going swimming. I’m sure important social change will result.

        I don’t know if you’ve followed German news in recent months, but that island is notorious for rich kids coming there to party, and recently some videos have surfaced of them singing some veeeery racist songs, and everybody just going along with it. So yes, disturbing the summer holidays of rich racists is very much a protest, and if you’re having fun while doing it, all the better. There’ll be enough opportunities to throw bricks at cops and occupy old growth forests in the future

        I’m sorry, you seem to be under the impression that having fun is inherently unproductive.
