Extinction Rebellion or how not to win an argument

[Easy-X]

But they've missed a trick! They could have gone down the whole "Straw for Life" route... as first suggested on the felching reddit that, I err... heard about from a friend

OK, more climate panic fake bullshit.

https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/over-200-reindeer-found-dead-in-norway-researchers-blame-climate-change-2076363

This claims that all 200 died due to starvation because of climate change causing ice, not snow to stop them getting at the grass.

https://c.ndtvimg.com/2019-07/a87vk718_dead-reindeer-reuters_625x300_27_July_19.jpg

Yep, all 200 died from starvation simultaneously, at the same place. As if.....

Funny that, because when large numbers of reindeer in the same area were found dead all at once, lightening was to blame before climate change became trendy.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/video/2016/aug/29/300-wild-reindeer-killed-in-lightning-strike-in-norway-video

They all huddle together, on the top of a hill. The entire heard gets struck at once. But hey, must be due to climate change causing them to all simultaneously starve at exactly the same place and time.

I blame Greta Thunberg.

News article to say music festivals are considering a £25 deposit paid by all, because of the amount of rubbish (mainly tents, camping gear) left behind.
Does not compute. I would have thought many of these people would be going off to the next climate change protest?

[Ste]

Having to wait for someone to confirm that I've taken my tent away could be enough to make me leave it there instead.

There are ~140,000 tickets available to the general public for Glastonbury Festival and ~90,000 tickets available to the general public for Reading Festival. That's a lot of tents to check and admin for giving each of those people their £25 deposits back.

It wouldn't work.

How about putting climate change warnings on fried chicken?

My new-ish phone went down the sh1tter (not literally) yesterday. I tried to transfer my SIM card to my previous handset, only to discover that this was not allowed because we have moved from Micro SIMS to Nano SIMS.

Looking at the design, the SIM card is the same dimensions, just the backing card is a different size. This appeared to be enough for Old phone sez No.

This, in conjunction with changing the charger port size irked me somewhat. If they kept things the same size then we could use older kit still, which is better for the environment.

Surely mobile phone companies aren't putting profits ahead of this?

tl;dr "We told the police we were going to fly drones over Heathrow and were shocked when we were arrested!"

FFS, get over yourselves

I thought they want to be arrested, seems like a good move arrest them before they even do stupid stunts

It is somewhat peculiar that Bannons fascist minions adopt the very same denials as the fossil fuel lobbies that sponsor them.

Life is full of such strange coincidences!

Scrat is John Bercow.

I am the many things you desire me to be because you're simply projecting the first aspect of fear, you fear the unknown and yet you're compelled to imagine it.

That you fear a narcissistic dwarf is very interesting and in these current political climes most apt.

I'm sorry if I've not replied to your quotes directly but the report button has been activated so many times that I'm unfortunately oblivious to your status.

We don't fear the unknown.

Are you the narcissistic dwarf?

Why can't you understand that there isn't a report button?

[Scrat]

One can see that the snitches agenda has form!

These self centred hypocritical tossers are going to end up being hurt at some stage.

If I was stuck in that queue, about to miss my ferry, I'd have no hesitation in joining a group of vigilante motorists to forcibly remove Tarquin and chums.

I'm amazed the public have not taken matters in their own hands so far.

1970's - The new ice age - we're all going to die.
1980's - Acid Rain - we're all going to die.
1990's - The Ozone layer is gone - we're all going to die
2000's - Global warming is melting glaciers - we're all going to die.
2010's - If the climate is not staying perfectly the same - we're all going to die.

Can anyone see a pattern? How did the previous doom predictions pan out?
