One of the really special things about Stonehenge is how close you can get to it, and how few barriers there are between you and the stones - just an ankle-high rope. Dipshits like this will ruin that for everyone. Also, it's pretty easy to both care about the environment and hate these idiots.

These "protests" that target historic and artistic resources infuriate me precisely because they are so damaging to other human beings. Why don't they spray paint or toss tomato soup on corporate headquarters for petroleum companies, deface their signs, or otherwise target the actual perpetrators?

They even let you get past the rope and actually touch the stones if you get in early enough. (At least, that was the case when I was there two decades ago.)

It's very a very PETA sort of activism. More "look at me/what I did" and less "look at this problem I purport to care about." Chasing spectacle over results.

Really making themselves feel like a psy-op to discredit environmentalist causes.

You used to be able to walk among the stones & touch them. Within my adult lifetime.

What these jackasses don't realize is the only tangible changes they're achieving is removing access to priceless works of art for the public. Which-- if that is their real goal then GREAT JOB.

The Pietà used to be open and approachable. Then a nut attached it with a hammer. Now its behind plexiglass.

We've got a backup in WA, if needed, but yeah. Maybe don't be assholes, activists?

Maybe they're just jealous that oil companies are destroying the planet and want in on the action.

The only thing I can say for these clowns is everything they do is relatively harmless. That'll come off all right. And what HASN'T been done to those. But a lot of people will be there for sincere spiritual reasons tomorrow and they are NOT the people who need to hear environmental messages.

Picture finally loaded, of course it was Just Stop Oil. I do get what they are going for but most of their targets are so disconnected they do not feel like coherent protests, the whole thing almost feels like a psyop to make people more mad at environmental activism.

Some minimize JSO's actions by arguing that they didn't permanently harm XYZ. But even if one excuses JSO on this basis, it should alarm us that they're getting more destructive.
In May, JSO protestors smashed the glass case protecting the Magna Carta, and now this.
