Climate Activists Spray-Paint Darwin’s Grave in London to Draw Attention to Climate Disaster

I never said they should not protest at all or not inconvenience anyone, but vandalism of random property or cultural heritage? No, I will not support that.
They have and people whined about it. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/taylor-swift-private-jet-climate-activists-orange-paint-british-airfield/
