        It’s amazing how “righteous fury” people seem to get over folks protesting sporting events because the fucking planet is on fire.

        “Oh but couldn’t they be more calm and quiet about it, I want to watch the race!”

      With participants who likely flew themselves their bikes in from all around the world for a pointless competition. I wouldn’t compare an international bike race to a person who rides their bike to work to help the environment.

        Sporting events are the best way to reach hundreds of millions of people to deliver the message. Athlete flights are a tiny price to pay for it. And protesters literally fucked it up. Because they are dumbfuck attention whores and nothing else.
