Fake news. They rammed some paper signs that were arranged to block the road. Still, good.

    Wrong. Call it inaccurate title.

    [–]iamonlyoneman 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

    It's an inaccurate title, then.

    The other angle shows the action better.

    They literally rammed a blockade made from an extendable (fold out) cargo trailer. One idiot was still chained to it.

    [–]iamonlyoneman 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

    That's a pussyass blockade. They should make a human chain or glue themselves to the road if they care

    I don’t understand why people weren’t just driving the fuck around them

    Was it Jason?

    Misleading title. They drove though a barricade, not people.

    Blocking the road in that way is also illegal.

    On the one hand, Burning Man is a cesspool of filth and pollution for rich tech bros, so I see the protestors' point. On the other hand, it would be nice to see the UK cops get some inspiration from these rangers when it comes to dealing with the Just Stop Oil people.

    This simultaneously disappointed me and brought me joy. The truck only gets rammed through some paper but then the people get a nice bit of a reminder not to fuck around. Looked like the two on the right that stayed sitting had a hand glued to the ground and the video didn't show me what I wanted to see happen with them. Grip em and rip em.

    People who write intentionally vague titles belong in camps

    All it takes is for one brave soul to run up and toe kick one of these idiots right in the teeth, and it will all come to a stop

    [–]topiary2 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

    Would never happen because these climate zealots only ever protest in the most pussified events imaginable.

    How DARE they stop rich assholes going to a drugs and sex festival that brings in tons of revenue for the area which is on tribal lands which are usually poor because teepee niggers are lazy and don't create industry to support themselves.
