This is a common occurrence in recent years by leftist groups. They have no bloody clue how to get their message out and connect with people that they make absolutely boneheaded moves. Moves that typically make these people look worse than if they did nothing.
There were environmental protesters in the US a few months back who stopped an entire highway. So now you have dozens or even hundreds of cars just idling there which is the worst thing to do for emissions. There have been similar protests before, but what really struck me with one of the protests was that there was some guy who was driving to meet his parole officer. If he was late to the meeting for any reason, he'd get thrown back in jail. The guy was pleading with these people to move to the side and let him go and they wouldn't budge. What a bunch of absolutely douchebags. These moves do not endear your audience to your cause, for fucks sakes.
Then there are groups like PETA. People of all races and cultures love animals, and yet these clowns find a way time and time again to turn people away from a cause that should otherwise be a homerun. Who wants to see animals being abuse? No one, and yet with the tactics these guys pull, they turn off more people than turn onto their organization because they always focus on the wrong things.
Fucking Koala brains. If you cant even be bothered to TRY and understand the point of the protests, then at least keep your mouth shut rather than polluting the world with your ignorance.
