I can’t tell you if they will result in meaningful change, but I can tell you that historically, protests that are easy to ignore work a hell of a lot less that protests that get in people’s faces and disrupt their lives.
And anyone that actually gives enough of a shit to do something about isn’t going to put off by being made 10 minutes late to work by a protest or having their precious bideo game convention distrusted for 30 seconds. The only people that are getting pissed off by this are the self-absorbed man-children of the world.
JSO isn’t about halting all oil consumption right the fuck now. There goal is to stop new licences being given out to drill for more oil. The idea being that we should at the very least try to not actively make the problem worse. And start the long process of actually decoupling our system from oil, so one day the entire world’s economy DOESNT rely on oil.
Yeah they do a great job at getting that message across by… throwing paint on things and annoying people?
But by all means, make personal attacks against me, because as we are saying to you pissing people off and alienating them is great for the cause, great work!
If you don’t want me to make fun of you for being dumb then just don’t be dumb. You have the collective knowledge of the entire human race at your fingertips, which included JSOs cause and reasoning. Use it.

Ok and what’s the plan exactly? “Just stop oil” will kill millions if not billions, the entire worlds economy relies on fossil fuels.
What exactly does the protest accomplish? Awareness is worth about as much as thoughts and prayers, so what will this help exactly?
A protest with no plan is just making noise.
This is why we need to teach kids to read.
