Nobody being angry at you even listens to your course thatd the point.
Its like spitting in someone's face and telling them their shoes are untied.
It's not like that at all, though. It's like interrupting a large games event to protest drilling for oil. No one has been spat on, and it's about something much more important than shoelaces.
It comes down to the exactly same thing. Nobody cares about your saying, everyone hates you.
I care, and I don't hate them. Matters more than some fallout boys jackoff tournament or whatever it was
Protests are likely older than your last name, and have worked about as long.
You can tell kinda in the same way you can tell unions work. The people theyre meant to be used against get reeeeeaal agitated when they start happening.
There is a difference between protests and throwing tantrums...
What part of climate change do you not take seriously?
You called it a tantrum. Which means you think that someone can overreact to the problem.
If someone can overreact to climate change, that means you think theres something not that serious about the problem.
If you were serious about climate change, you would understand that making a few people mad doesnt matter as much as getting as many people as possible talking about it as possible, because of how pressing and serious of a threat it is.
But you think doing anything that risks making others mad is too far, a tantrum. Which means you dont think its that pressing, because if you did you would be more concerned about stopping it.
So. What is it that you dont actually take seriously?
I call it a tantrum because that's what it is, its not a protest or anything to be just and only disruptive. Its literally just one step away from murdering people for your course, aka terrorism. This Shitshow has to be stopped or actual climate change protests loose all credibility by being associated with this shit.
And its not just a few, take the idiots that glue themselves to roads in Germany, there have been studies that literally say that they make most people just mad and hate them. Like so mad that police could literally beat them into hospital and most normal people would be happy about that.
I disagree, some people get angry and then think about ways to make it stop, which gets them thinking about why people are doing the protests in the first place.
Sorry but disagreement is only possible for opinions, i stated a fact. Your "protest" ruins peoples day, they don't think about your course, they think you are a asshole.
If i destroy your phone and try telling you that you need to think about the environment im pretty certain you would be to angry at me to even listening to what i want to say...
Disagreement works just fine when youre incorrect about your fact.
Im just not however...
I mean, you objectively are. How a random person might react to a protest isnt a fact. Some people might react that way. Many will not. It is not the factual response to have a specific response to an event.
It your opinion that more people will respond in that way. Nothing factual about it.
A random person? No. A society? Pretty much.
Thats even less a fact, and far more baseless opinion.
You can't predict a single person, you can definitely predict a societys opinion on something, thats called statistics.
Except nothing you have said is a statistic, its a made up guess based on your personal opinion.
Did you, perhaps, overhear your mother or father using these words? Im not sure you understood them correctly, because you arent exactly using them right.
