Economy 52,845 Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 At this point I don't know if these are really misguided extremists that do not understand this only backfires... Or if anti fossil fuel transition are behind this to make the movement look bad (but without the ppl doing the dirty work as pawns realizing it) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think she is from the Getty family. You are referring to Aileen Getty, who has no current ties to the oil industry. No one has made money from fossil fuels in her family for decades. She uses her inherited wealth, accumulated from her families now defunct oil company, to combat climate change. Which is exactly what we want people in her position to do. Here is the article she wrote for The Guardian explaining why she funds and supports environmental activists: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/oct/22/just-stop-oil-van-gogh-national-gallery-aileen-getty Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Controversiaga 16,026 Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 at this point , its just strange that museums don't have stronger security to prevent these protests, given the amount that have been happening over the past few months..... makes me wonder what's going on Pronounced like “Balenciaga” .

FFXIV WhiteMage 6,310 Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 I don’t think this is the smartest way to grab attention. Negative publicity is still publicity but it doesn’t go well if you are trying to promote your advocacy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 This is getting stupid. I understand the cause but this are not the means. It will backfire and the cause will get unnecessary hate Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fresco 1,688 Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 I think instead of pouring tomato soup, they should tape up pictures of the energy they want. Like tape a wind turbine on the glass or a hydrogen power plant or fission or desalinization or whatever they think needs to replace oil. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

More security seems warranted. When I visited the Rijksmuseum long ago, Rembrandt's painting The Night Watch was is a room by itself and there were two security guards in the room for that one painting. Impressive. And there were no activists attacking paintings in those days. I live outside the space time continuum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
