I am having trouble with the logic of these art protests. I can’t see how any action in a European museum will influence the behaviour of any of the oil producing nations. Protest the war in Ukraine. The treatment of disadvantaged or marginalized people. Wealth inequality. Trashing art is performance art, with minimal risk and reward.
Not quite the man in front of the tank in Tiananmen Square.
- Comevius 4y agoI understand the logic, they are frustrated because we are sleepwalking into a catastrophe, and this is the best they can personally do to protest it in a civilized manner. It's not especially productive, but at least they are not just sitting on their asses like the rest of us do. These people are young, so they will be around to be raped to pieces in the thunderdome, it puts things in a different perspective for them. The millennials will likely be the last generation to have a chance to die alone in high-tech beds with anime playing in the background, the zoomers won't be able to avoid the cannibal holocaust.
