[–] wheelie@lemmy.world 13 points 3 years ago (1 child) I'd be more inclined to use road marking paint (the really thick stuff you boil to prepare) catapulted onto the deck. Or just burn it down. Permanent damage is the only language they understand. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] FabioTheNewOrder@lemmy.world 8 points 3 years ago* (1 child) Too bad that you wouldn't be damaging just the leisure of a super rich person but also the environment around it. We need to find ways to hurt them without damaging the environment worst than they are already doing if possible permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] james1@lemmy.world 3 points 3 years ago (1 child) The impacts of the environmental damage are not necessarily worse than the environmental damage from not sinking superyachts in the long term, if it becomes a common enough threat that rich people no longer feel secure in owning them. The concern with anything too destructive is with the property and safety of workers on board imo, not the ships themselves. I'd recommend Andreas Malm's book How to Blow Up a Pipeline if you want to hear more about the reasoning for this sort of thing. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] FabioTheNewOrder@lemmy.world 2 points 3 years ago I've heard about this book before but I haven't had the chance to read it yet. Definitely a reading I must add to my list, I'll try to find a copy of it to correct this lack of information. Thanks a lot for the suggestion!! permalink fedilink source parent
