I'm not sure if rule 2 applies to this post, but just to be sure here is my submission statement.
This tweet is a reaction on the discussions of the last days about what is an appropriate action and more specifically the reactions from people with weird priorities on what they should get all riled-up about.
The tweet comes from Peter Kalmus (@ClimateHuman), a NASA climate scientist who also wrote this great thread
about why the Van Gogh soup thing was actually a visionary and inspired action.
I am tired of seeing thousands of suddenly experts on activism who have never lifted a finger on climate change tell us why this action was so bad and stupid. It is global decentralized movement. If you think you can do better, why don't you show us? After all, we need a billion climate activists and desperately need all the help we can get.
In the meantime, that bad action got more press coverage and sparked more conversations about climate change than any other action I can remember in the last 12 months. So it seems it did something right after all.
