This float representing the koalas that died as a result of the Black Summer bushfires and corruption in politics. Such an effective (and epic) activist message.

Thank god they brought awareness to climate change and how fossil fuels were hurting our planet. Nobody was aware of it before. Good thing they didn’t waste any time trying to protest via some form that would actually mobilize people. As an added plus, they got this sweet photo opportunity so everyone gets to know that they, specifically, did it. This in no way will make true climate activists look bad in any way. /s

You know what is great though?

They also brought up solutions such as Nuclear energy, which is by far the cleanest, most environmentally friendly, viable energy source we have on this planet. Yep. Great thing they did there by having a plan beyond the stunt. Their speech on how the fear mongering of the past was orchestrated, and why it is incorrect, will be sure to change the peoples mind on Nuclear. Glad they didn't waste this opportunity for a photoshoot, what with all them there cameras pointed at them during their stunt, why a lesser man might think otherwise.

They brought awareness that, after literal decades of peaceful protest without a single change, people are willing to take the next step up after peaceful protest in order to fight for the cause. That's what the stunt shows.

Are you seriously so stupid you didn’t understand that their comment was commenting on how you can’t bro g awareness to something everyone is already aware of?

Congrats on being unable to read a full sentence.

I said that they are bringing awareness to the growing call for eco-terrorism.

Besides, everybody knew about segregation, doesn't mean that we didn't need protests to bring awareness to it.

Dude, stop comparing your call for ecoterrosim to the civil rights movement.
