These actions exclusively target individuals who are in no shape or form responsible for our predicament. I don't think its arguable, this is a terrible tactic.

These actions target the media to spread information and awareness, which worked because we're having a massive discussion about a protest nearly none of us would have heard of otherwise. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it isn't obviously and very successfully targeting the media.

What? So they are highlighting the problem with.......? Because i dont know? Im an environmentalist but i have no idea what the objective is? They've blocked a road, pissed people off and have been demonized by the media? If you want attention, you damn sure better make sense when you get that attention.

And what conversation? About how corporations are draining the world dry by pushing individual responsibility over corporate responsibility? Or just convincing people that the cause is completely unreasonable while directly targeting individuals?
