Just Stop Oil activists jailed for throwing soup over Van Gogh’s Sunflowers - eviltoast

This was the one soup-throwing which did any damage at all; in this case to the frame.

The penalty is appreciably worse than for minor violent attacks.

    But it’s not moving the needle, not at all ! It’s only fuelling antipathy towards environmental activism, and you can bet your favourite thing rightwingers are using that to pull centrists into their side.

      I’ve given some pretty compelling evidence that public support for these activists is extremely high, and in response you have… some flatulence.

      Here, I’ll respond in the way you did:

      But it is moving the needle, it totally is!

      See? I can say things too.
