Sound bytes and sloganeering carries no weight.

After losing the science debate on climate change hands down, the crackpot deniers are now looking for other avenues to vent their spleen on what is an obvious undeniable fact, climate change is real and without immediate action the consequences are too catastrophic to contemplate. The real "terrorists" are the deniers, their ostrich approach of putting their heads in the sand terrifies me, and all people of reason. If demolishing the pyramids, stone by stone, would save the planet, then I would say; "goodbye pyramids"!

ttbn,
>Tanveer Ahmed is not a "regime",
I never says he was. But mislabeling people "terrorists" is a tool of despotic regimes, and anyone who does so should be called out on it no matter what their psychiatric qualifications.

>I have not expressed any opinion of my own
Your initial post did not make it clear, and your lack of questioning implied you concur.

Except they didn't glue themselves to priceless works of art; they glued themselves to the protective glass that covers priceless works of art. There's quite a big difference! The former is cultural vandalism and should be dealt with severely; the latter is merely a protesting stunt of no real harm to anyone.

Gluing themselves to roads is different. Depending on the road, there may be a high economic cost, so they could be regarded as saboteurs. But their actions weren't violent, so they aren't terrorists.

Indy,
>They are social terrorists i.e. Soldiers of parasitism !
Except they're not terrorists (they don't resort to violence or threaten people's lives).
And they're not soldiers.
And they're not of parasitism! Quite the opposite: they're protesting against parasitism and for sustainability.

" If demolishing the pyramids, stone by stone, would save the planet, then I would say; "goodbye pyramids"!"

And it would be just as effective in appeasing the CO2-Gods as any of the other policies currently in place.
