Berlin, climate activist protest slows down ambulance on its way to a seriously injured woman hit by a truck in a road traffic accident.

what are you 4? that's a child throwing a tantrum to get attention.

Getting attention != you're winning or gaining support or helping the cause

Loud douchebags get attention at bars...no one likes them but other douchebags lol.

Of course your immediate reaction is a smug dismissal.

These types of actions alienate the fence sitters, create hostility and counter action from the inconvenienced and generally are a bad look.

You're acting like people don't know about climate change.

Climate change is not in the "we need to bring awareness to it" stage of things.

Sorry but road protests are lazy thinking by entitled radicals.

But PLEASE tell me the REAL ACTION- as you call it- that happened today from this?

Are you seriously going to claim "more people know about climate change now"? lol Really?

No this was not "real action" in ANY meaningful way. Again - lazy thinking.

The real action is how do we actually get people to care about climate change and how do we provide green alternatives to a wasteful society. But that's something that actually requires some effort and thinking and doesn't get you the immediate short sighted adrenaline rush of glueing yourself in the middle of the street entitled kid thinking.

You've got a lot of strawman answers there suggesting that the only alternative is "tweeting support for a cause"

While failing to see that this "road protest stunt" was just a bunch of people acting out a tweet in real life lol.
