Been seeing a lot of outrage thrown at them recently their protests and been seeing a lot of people trying to disrupt these protesters for “disrupting” them and that they could cause inconvenience to emergency services but at the same time,I feel as though these actions are necessary sort of to better spread the message since the bourgeois media is going to turn a blind eye to it. So, since I’m not really familiar with the whole thing, I want to see what you think of them.

Nah. The people who are so against these protests would have never tried to stop using oil anyways. That's not who they're targeting.

Pissing off those people and letting them whine and make fools of themselves just brings more attention to the people that do care.

This is true and I agree, it just kind of sucks that the people who are annoyed and pissed off are the ones seemingly being amplified on social media and the news.

It's by design. Capitalist media benefits from climate change denialism and the denigration of climate protestors.
