National Guard in LA: What they can and can't do't do

Who set the fire? What were they charged with? What was found out about their background and ideology?

Full on pyscho

You look at destruction, risk of lives, chaos, and none of it means anything to you
It doesn't mean anything to you every time I provide evidence that MAGA is responsible for an overwhelming majority of it. So again we're not interested in your pearl clutching when it's your side that's the problem to begin with.
 
Names, charges, and ideology please.
You're changing your standards of wanting sources to images to super-specific points

Next you want their families, backgrounds and what they did for a living, then their friends, school and whether or not they slept for 8 hours or not

IT'S STILL DESTRUCTION. WHY DOES THIS MATTER TO YOU? YOU CAN PUT 1 AND 1 TOGETHER, AND IT'S CLEAR THEY'RE PROTESTING OF TRUMP

why else could they be doing this? Oh oh oh the weather was perfect for it????

Can you try to find them?? Or do you know they never did document this, and you want me to be in this hellhole of finding sources, source,s sources just for you to not care about it
 
Well i think her actions have no mean nowadays. She's just become a walking meme imo.

I blame her parents. They should never let her be at the center of attention at that young age. Every time i see her i think "there goes the attention junkie".

And btw i think we should fight climate change and pollution, but i don't think these stunts are doing nothing positive in spreading awareness. I think they are doing more harm than good to the movement, and that common people just see this as narcissistic actions from attention junkies.

I'm not gonna do your homework for you. Why should we take you seriously when you can't actually back any of your claims here?

Names, charges, and ideology please.

What do you think should be done? because in the early 2000s Al Gore had the level headed scientific approach and nobody cared. Granted, because people are idiots, but even so.

The planet is not going to die because a bunch of activist decided to temporally paint a canal green (Assuming the dye is indeed eco-friendly. If they messed that up then yeah weird stuff)
As cranesbill pointed out , it blocks the light, particularly the green light which is the color of light that chlorophyll absorbs for photosynthesis (dont anyone try and say it doesnt block light because the fact we can see it means its blocking the light). Explain how that could be eco-friendly.. the thing is, these activists are covid vaxx pushing, who supporting retards without the ability to think critically.

Look. I am going to be dead honest.

Your image looks like it was ai generated. Or really poorly photoshopped.

First you have the amount of smoke that should be a problem for the guy supposedly protesting.
You have just one guy, when normally it's in groups. There is a smeary mess to whatever is to the left of him. then we got questions of the camera man, since he is also in danger of the severe smoke around them.

I believe in waymo cars being burned down, that was an event, and that was because of them giving data to ice.
But your specific image is at best an artistic rendering. Worst, straight lying.
I did some Googling for curiosity on this one. The image came from a BBC article, who themselves got it from Getty Images. There are a looooooot of stock photos from that day on Getty, but I did find a few that appear to show other angles of the same thing, so I would lean towards it being a genuine photo:

www.gettyimages.co.uk/detail/news-photo/young-man-is-seen-standing-with-a-sign-that-reads-ice-out-news-photo/2218842465
www.gettyimages.co.uk/detail/news-photo/cars-burn-in-front-of-protesters-in-los-angeles-california-news-photo/2218800360

It's quite clearly the same person with the same sign in those images.

Anyway actually on the topic of the thread, protest is annoying. For it to have any real impact it has to piss people off. If anything I'm shocked some bio-degradable colouring in a polluted river has pissed off this many people, it seems relatively low stakes given current events around the world.
