    When is it appropriate for climate protests to turn into climate violence? When is it appropriate for a victim to fight back? Or must we allow billionaires and conservatives to kill us all?

      These protests have no connection to the issue. I honestly think many of them are paid by oil companies to make the environmental movement look bad.

        Stopping personal traffic by blocking cars and being “annoying” in places that often are lit for no reason through entire nights are both protests very close to the issue.

      Victims? They are the reason behind the climate change!

        Um. What?

        The victims of climate change are the normal people who are prevented from doing anything to stop it.

        Conservatives have worked hard for decades to make sure normal people are not able to curtail climate change in any way. There is a clear villain in the story of how we are being killed. It is conservatives.
