Climatistas all over (more in Europe than here in the US – so far) are doing all kinds of stunts that just make Normal people mad. Oh, they are calling attention to the “fact” that we’re all gonna die if we don’t immediately surrender our standards of modern living RIGHT NOW. Sorry, living at a Stone Age level of life? Might as well die but they just won’t leave the rest of us alone. They block streets, block highways, despoil art, stop new nat gas lines for electricity (and here in the Northeast, heat our homes in winter), and shut down coal electricity plants….the list is endless. Lately, these “protesters” are gluing themselves to “stuff. There’s this great reaction from a couple of climatists that superglued themselves to the asphalt road during rush hour to “bring awareness” that we are killing our planet by driving gas-fueled cars – and the police just yank their hands off the tar and haul them off to the local clink:
Note that the young woman barely squeaks out a “owe!” while the “man” does a worse acting job than an NBA player trying to “play the ref”. And if that is real, serves him right for inconveniencing a lot of other people. Love the officer’s reaction: yeah, yeah, yeah. I do note that after the high school acting, you can see the young woman’s hand – it is missing a good bit of skin as she sits there in silence contemplating that Urkel line: “Did I do
But this next one is FAR better – just ignore them completely (reformatted, emphasis mine):
Hilarious: This May Just Be the Best Response to Climate Change Radicals
…The usual reaction to people like this has been to cut them loose or free them from the glue and arrest them.
But the folks at Volkswagen may just have had the best response ever to this kind of idiocy. Sixteen members of “Scientist Rebellion” (which looks like an offshoot of Extinction Rebellion) went to the Porsche pavilion at Volkswagen’s Autostadt in Germany. Nine of them glued themselves to the floor, they also had six other people, and one of the glued “scientists” claimed that some were “on hunger strike until our demands to decarbonize the German transport sector are met.”
Yeah, trying to extort people using your own deaths as a bargaining chip is one that I’ve never EVER listened to or taken seriously. If that’s what you want to do, kill yourself over something this stupid as a political stunt, knock yourselves out. I really don’t care so leave me out of it. If you want to be remembered (IF you are!) as “that guy” that depends on the politeness of others to survive, well, SURPRISE when you’ve made life harder for others and…they…simply…ignore…you.
This response is GLORIOUS!
But hold on, here comes the best part. Rather than calling the police, getting them loose, and having them arrested, the Volkswagen people left them there and closed, turning everything off, with them glued to the floor, without food, heat, and as, they complained, any way to go to the bathroom.
Well, welcome to the Stone Age – not even a pot to pi** into, eh? Complaining that you’re going to get cold; isn’t that part and parcel that you are forcing othersdecarbonize into involuntarily? YOU HAD A CHOICE – and you made it. Decisions have consequences and this is yours – you just got EXACTLY what you are protesting FOR – decarbonized!
Together with 15 other members of @ScientistRebel1 I have occupied the Porsche pavillion at @Autostadt, 9 of us glued to the floor and some of us on hunger strike until our demands to decarbonise the German transport sector are met👉 https://t.co/Y5uo5IicXb @ClimateHuman pic.twitter.com/SUxUy5Q5uq

Such a forlorn look on his face. What was he, and the other monomaniacs, thinking? Going to an auto display and being decarbonized welcomed with open arms? Stupidity reigns supreme!

Shoulda thought of that before the superglue dried, eh sport?
Absolutely the correct response – ignore them. Completely. Remove all vestiges of modern life – heat, light, and they should have brought their own bowls.
Which is another point – what self-respecting protester who is trying to “bring down” an industry sector relies on the folks you want to put out of business to give you ANYTHING?? Isn’t that a rather big ego of you? That those people are supposed to supply you with ANYTHING???
A couple of tweets were included in the article:
You’ve nailed it mate. No heating, no lights. You’ve successfully decarbonized the hall that you are in. Let us know how it’s working out for you, and see if you can join the dots.
Quite a few pithy comments making fun of the situation into which they’ve put themselves. But they’ve succeeded in the micro – the heat in the building, supplied by fossil fuels, has been “withdrawn” from them. They should consider that a success – they WON as they now have no fossil-based heat. But just wait for the shivering to set in. And nobody there cares. Nor should anyone care. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
Every time one of these nitwits want to make themselves a permanent part of an inanimate object like a floor or a wall, just walk away. For a day – and then return to smile at them. Then walk away again for another day. After all, they put themselves there and I have no compassion for people who are demanding attention from others but get ignored. Serves them right.
Then let the police, maybe, get them out and escort them to the nearest subway station and let them make their own way home.
And get yet another set of people mad at their “mission” in making others miserable.
Smart people there at VW – I hope that many more people watch this and learn.
