Whatever they do it seems to piss people off. And the decades of small scale protests prior to this have gone completely ignored.
Meanwhile a literal oil sheik presides over the latest climate talks and you hear nothing beyond "some people feel there may be a conflict of interest"
I feel your rage is sorely misdirected.
maybe their tactics should impact people with power
Two wrongs doesn't make one right: I can be critic of both Ultima Generazione (Last Generation) activists as well as the governments that fail to implement sensible climate policies.
I have always voted for pro-nuclear parties, don't own a car, walk for any distance shorter than 3km within my city and take the bus / tram otherwise. Within my city I vote for candidates that push for reductions of car infrastructure and improvement to public parks and transit. I like to think I'm on the right side in this battle.
Still, I don't think anything justifies activists who damage art just to make their voices heard. Right battle, wrong strategy.
I won't say I think these are the best tactics but "two wrongs"... One side is causing inconvenience while the other is actively making the planet unliveable. They're tactics of desperation.
