    A man literally self-immolated to try to bring attention to our lack of effort to confront climate change. It was barely covered and you don’t seem to even know it happened. But you’re here fantasizing about violence because they threw some soup on a painting’s protective glass, so it seems like that’s actually working.

      and you don’t seem to even know it happened

      When you pretend to be able to read my mind via the internet and then try to use that in order to justify your argument, I feel no compunction in immediately dismissing you— you’re clearly irrational and will do/say anything to further your agenda… just like these people who would destroy priceless works of art or light themselves aflame just for attention when alternatives are available and such methods have never been proven to be effective.

      Don’t blame me for my valid criticisms. Just find better ways to achieve your goals.

        If you knew someone self-immolated and didn’t get coverage, what is your reasoning behind the very stable and very cool suggestion that you would beat them up for publicity? That a self-inflicted death wouldn’t get attention, but maybe a voluntary assault would?

        You just didn’t know, but can’t drop the tough guy act to admit it.

        Your valid criticism is… to beat the shit out of them? I mean look, I’ve seen some bad criticism but that’s not even in the right basket.

          Valid criticism is to call out their (your) destruction of priceless artifacts, and priceless art and their burning of themselves just for attention. Attention which accomplishes nothing.

          Your only response is to blame me for pointing that out. How childish. How dare you.

          You’ve got nothing but empty intentions and empty gestures. What a disappointing thing you are. You are nothing but the tantrums you throw, and no one will remember you for anything but that. Tantrums.

          So you admit that your own ideology is to blame. It’s your own audiology that has failed.
