    They were throwing paint into corporate offices and CEO’s cars at the same time. The media chose to put the art vandalism on blast. I wouldn’t be surprised if it turned out the art vandalism was the idea of a corporate mole.

      Multiple things can be true at the same time. The art vandalism deserves to be put on blast. I would be surprised if it was a corporate mole because I heard those people talk and I believe them. They think they were justified.

        No, I can believe that true believers thought that art vandalism was a good idea, but I’m just skeptical about where the idea originated from.

      The media… that made me think of old days but right now I’m watching some hurricane coverage that is obviously in a helicopter. And I’m thinking why…

      A large 6 rotor “drone” is cheap and can sustain a motor failure. Cheap compared to the camera it carries. You can have a fleet and maybe 2 cameras and just swap them out as needed. With gps the pilot just needs to tap on a touch screen, camera operator just has to get framing right, and the tech that maintains everything can be had at a poverty level wage.

      Oof, that wasn’t positive. But I do wonder what they use now. We had wall to wall coverge of trump flying his old 757 to Atlanta and back and really hope that was drones. Sorry heli pilots. You are still cool, it’s just expensive.

      Not to sound like a dick, but you sort of sound like Matt Gaetz accusing Antifa of J6.

      There is zero proof that these people are moles. I’d be hard pressed to find a white 20 something to act the part of a climate activist, on the behalf of the oil companies.
