Why don't they protest at the oil company offices?

[EmeraldPencil]

Ah, yes, museums. They definitely have everything to do with climate change.

[hatsthedoggo]

Why dont these people just start their own art exhibit and show the effects of climate change that way

Throwing a temper tantrum in an art museum and potentially damaging art history is apparently how you save the planet from dying.

[mcvenne]

Why is it always museums? Leave the art and the people appreciating it alone.

As an artist, this tests me everyday. It's like having a problem with wallmart and protesting in front of the church. HOW DOES THAT MAKE ANY SENSE???

[Jumpman]

That's not protesting. That's vandalism.

[Granimal]

Cause at this point I’m convinced that oil pays these people to protest In the most annoying ways possible to turn people off a just stop oil movements

[ChairmanMeowNZ]

Obviously it wasn't damaged it'll have a protective screen over it

[ruben]

That like someone protesting Mickey dees for making people unhealthy and then going to a car dealership to vandalize vehicles. It makes no sense.

It's better to poop in front of the oil company building instead of ruining history tbh

[tallpoppysyndrome]

The plastic sheet she applied on top of the painting is made of plastic which is made of oil. Hypocrite

[yoloswaggins]

If that was a Banksy, it would have just increased in value.

Environmental "activist" wearing oil treated leather boots. The idiocy knows no bounds.

[LonnieLawless]

This is always done by people who have never been punched in the face.

[Mrs.Frankenstein]

She should have been arrested for vandalism.

[lineshaftrestorations]

Nothing to offer society so defacing art is the answer? Pathetic. 😢

[Qunarr]

This is incredibly disrespectful. And committing an actual crime is not the way to get your point across.

[nikitakucherov]

This protestor totally changed my mind with this stunt - said no one ever 😅

This is not how you get people on your side. If anything it makes people hate you
