Germany just doesn’t understand protesting
If your protest doesn’t cause any disturbance just stay home
No, it was just that glueing onto streets caused a lot of bad press. Then a bunch of farmers blocked streets with larger protests and the press was significantly better. So change in tactics.
Also a move towards trying to cause problems for big emitters, rather then for the general public. So block a coal power plant rather then a random street in Berlin
If your goal is to get people on your side, you should strive for visibility, not annoyance. Annoyance doesn’t gain you sympathy, it costs you. It’s actively counterproductive.
I’m repeating myself here, but pre-Covid FFF had the right strategy. They were starting to get results even.
The status quo: Yay!
Activists: The new tactic is murder.
The status quo: Oh no!
There’s a lot of options between glue and murder
Go forth and multiply.
