German climate activists glue themselves to the conductor's stand at a concert. The stand is removable so they were taken offstage and the concert continued after a 30-second interruption.
I can kinda see why people think they are actors because it's all been max level hipsters. The kind of people who try to look as idiotic as possible on purpose. Fuckers look like they cut their own hair and take design cues from 1970s furniture.
Wouldn't it be funny if that frame was walked out the back door somewhere and chained to a fence or something so that the activists can take ownership of calling a friend to come get them with some Super glue remover.
Police and rescue forces in Germany are regularly equipped with glue remover, sanitizer and hand creme right now. They check their IDs, file a report before sending them off and leave dealing with the matter to the venue owner or company in most cases. Who also have better things to do.
It's curious we see so many of these absolute non-stories pushed by the media. Especially when they portray climate activists as unfortunate looking dolts.
I don't think these are plants. I think the problem is that we're only getting reports of the dumb ones. There are lots of protests that are sensible and peaceful. But they don't make an exciting article, and they raise topics which are depressing. No one reports on them.
that's probably the whole point. climate debate is happening these past few months in the legislative bodies of many big nations and suddenly climate "activists" start stunts like blocking traffic, trying to destroy art, etc.
I don’t agree with the methods. All anyone talks about is how silly/stupid these people are. But can we talk about what they are actually trying to achieve? How do much of cultural institutions are funded by oil/gas companies in a vain attempt to ingratiate themselves to the public?
I think what's actually happening is that there's always some protests that go silly, while there's also plenty of protests that don't. But people trying to shut down legitimate climate change activism are promoting the ones that go a bit silly via social media manipulation in an effort to discredit the whole idea of all of these protests completely.
I fully support climate change activists, but I'm also willing to believe that a few of them are hilariously inept, like these guys. Don't know if you went to university but poorly thought out stunts like this, for very good causes, were common on my campus. Lots of enthusiastic and passionate kids, not a lot of forethought.
Making fun of these protestors just feeds the system they're protesting. It's easy to poke fun because they're so few. But if you do you're being played by a system that wants you working or dead and you are essentially just another crab in a bucket.
These climate protesters been doing direct climate protests for years. Nobody reports on those though and nothing changes. This is the result of people getting desperate since nobody cares when it’s not absurd enough to make the news.
I was thinking the same thing. Like do these ppl realize how often their videos are posted and nobody is talking about their cause and everyone is just pointing and laughing? I almost wonder if it’s doing more harm than good. Like putting ppl like me who believe in fighting climate change on the same side as ppl who are climate change deniers. We’re all just laughing at these idiots.
i mean we could be talking about how they have a point in protesting but all the 14 year olds on reddit are too busy just shaming them for the way they look or whatever. you are all part of this fucking problem, but hey, hope you got your rocks off by typing "cringe" or whatever..
Imagine the impact on the environment if that woman had a more healthy diet. Looks like she has the carbon footprint of 4 people because of that alone.
some people are simply unattractive, uninteresting and have no life. Therefore, they become activist. In the 3rd world they would become terrorists or menace others in some other ways.
After further inspection it was found out that the guy on the left never actually glued himself to the stand, he's just physically too weak to lift his arm from it
I wish I could have seen the faces in the audience erupting with laughter the moment he lifted the railing. What a couple of ineffectual hipster doofuses.
I’m all for climate activism, but why are they being extreme in the most useless way possible? gluing yourselves to random shit is usually just an inconvenience to every day people, it’s not hurting the big corps that they should be going after. i just can’t imagine that people who feel this strongly, can’t come up with actual ways to help the climate crisis, and instead just do shit like this that helps no one.
You are also forgetting the that more extreme actions will drown out the message. I suppose that their logic is "we will annoy people into doing something", but that hasn't worked ever.
This isn't activism. Doing this pisses people off and paints a negative image of your ideas, values and thoughts. I am an environmentalist, but this is the wrong way to get people thinking and aware.
If anyone looks even a little bit into these just stop oil activists, they can clearly see that they are just being paid to make climate change activists look dumb.
The destruction of the planet we live on is some sad shit, these activists trying to add meaning to their life by causing a nuisance is sad. I want the world to be better while also wanting to see these activists shitted on
I mean if you really want to help climate change go on a killing spree and destroy airports and then kill yourselves would be my best advice or help developing nuclear energy and failsafes so we can run effective
Why are these assclowns effecting middle class people living there daily lives. Glue yourself to Rupert murdocks house. Like go after the big fish with private jets Jesus you stupid fucks.
The real facepalm is people from developed countries (like the US with 7times the gas emissions per capita we should aim at), laughing at them for the act, while completely avoiding the reason behind.
Dude on the right look like Vector.
My favorite pairing, Vector and Constance Nebbercracker
What's the vector, Victor?
committing crimes with both direction and magnitude.
He be all magnitude but no direction
AAAAEEEEAAAHHH
I was thinking a mix of Harry Potter and Will Byers
Life goes oinioinioinioinioinioin
i knew he looked familiar
Bro lost his Magnitude fr.
Reminded me of this gem:
There you go
I can kinda see why people think they are actors because it's all been max level hipsters. The kind of people who try to look as idiotic as possible on purpose. Fuckers look like they cut their own hair and take design cues from 1970s furniture.
He looks like the orange jumpsuit dude from Despicable Me
He’s committing protests with direction and magnitude. Oh yeah!!
Larry Potter
No one with that haircut should be trusted to make superglue decisions.
Dudette on the left looks like she got lost on her way to the bathroom and isn't sure how she ended up with her hand glued to a pole next to Vector.
Here is a video of the proceedings filmed on a potato -
I loved the standing ovation they got as they were escorted off stage.
That “boo” was very german
That... was... beautiful.
lmao the way audience claps while they are awkwardly getting dragged out
I love the boos with a German accent
The misguided efforts of the well meaning. How dare that symphony create so much….check hand…CHOPIN
Is this in Cologne?
You know you failed if your protest is able to be turned into a gif.
Fuck gfycat and their high resolution as a service...
It’s like a glue trap for rats!
[удалено]
I broke out laughing so hard it freaked my cat out a bit. That was a joy to watch.
That dudes barber needs to be imprisoned.
Dude looks like he's planning to steal the moon
I had to look at the pic again, and I stared for a couple minutes because I legit thought he was wearing a hat before I realized that was his hair.
Bro I thought that was a hat
Hey! His mom worked really hard on that bowl cut!
That guy looks like he's about to steal the moon
The look on the woman's face is priceless.
And the guys face: "just what did you get me into now? This wasn't the plan, you were in charge of the plan...."
I assume the blank stare devoid of any thought is a consistent feature.
Why do all these activists look like they have an IQ equal to my room temperature....in celcius.
The barbershop apparently
Wow. What a picture. I dont know whats worse, the look on her face or my mans Lloyd Christmas haircut
That's actually Will from stranger things
Pumpkin pie hair-cutted freak!
Why do these people all look like no one is home?
“Dorks. They look like a couple of dorks.”
I am convinced something is off about these climate activists.
perhaps they are in a echo chamber
I don't mind climate activists, they are probably right in the long-run, but why do they have, invariably, such a haircut deficit...?
Wouldn't it be funny if that frame was walked out the back door somewhere and chained to a fence or something so that the activists can take ownership of calling a friend to come get them with some Super glue remover.
Police and rescue forces in Germany are regularly equipped with glue remover, sanitizer and hand creme right now. They check their IDs, file a report before sending them off and leave dealing with the matter to the venue owner or company in most cases. Who also have better things to do.
They look like a weird combination of confused, annoyed and helpless, all at once.
It's curious we see so many of these absolute non-stories pushed by the media. Especially when they portray climate activists as unfortunate looking dolts.
“Well this didn’t go to plan...”
Just put them outside with the rail. Let them fix that problem themselves.
But make sure to bill them for the rail as well as the removal and Installation.
With a sign that says Tell us about Jesus!
"The names Christmas. Llyod Christmas"
I'm 100% certain these people are trying to make climate activists look bad.
I don't think these are plants. I think the problem is that we're only getting reports of the dumb ones. There are lots of protests that are sensible and peaceful. But they don't make an exciting article, and they raise topics which are depressing. No one reports on them.
It's difficult to make protest "right". It's always "kill the messenger" even if people don't admitt it.
that's probably the whole point. climate debate is happening these past few months in the legislative bodies of many big nations and suddenly climate "activists" start stunts like blocking traffic, trying to destroy art, etc.
I don’t agree with the methods. All anyone talks about is how silly/stupid these people are. But can we talk about what they are actually trying to achieve? How do much of cultural institutions are funded by oil/gas companies in a vain attempt to ingratiate themselves to the public?

But people trying to shut down legitimate climate change activism are promoting the ones that go a bit silly via social media manipulation in an effort to discredit the whole idea of all of these protests completely.
There have been attempts in the past
I fully support climate change activists, but I'm also willing to believe that a few of them are hilariously inept, like these guys. Don't know if you went to university but poorly thought out stunts like this, for very good causes, were common on my campus. Lots of enthusiastic and passionate kids, not a lot of forethought.
At least they were wearing orange vests so when they put them on the sidewalk people would think they were construction workers on a break.
I can confidently say that nobody on Earth is going to think that those 2 people are construction workers
My man tucked in his high-vis vest and everything. That’s commitment to the act.
Start was delayed by 6 minutes. Don't downplay what those fellas achieved here.
They did the late comers a service, really. People in the bathroom appreciate their sacrifice.
Classical concerts traditionally start 7 minutes late.
Dumb and dumber
“Great, NOW we look like idiots!”
Why do they always look like such creatures lmao
threads about these people are just the embodiment of “don’t look up”
An article on what happened -
Why do these climate activists protests involve art? I'm starting to think they actually hate art, not oil.
DÖP
Harry Potter and Professor Umbridge waiting at Platform 9 & 3/4
Making fun of these protestors just feeds the system they're protesting. It's easy to poke fun because they're so few. But if you do you're being played by a system that wants you working or dead and you are essentially just another crab in a bucket.
I think it's funny that all these protesters are using petroleum based products to protest against petroleum...
😂 his haircut makes this hilarious
The look on her face is the funniest thing I’ve seen all morning. Or it was, until I watched the video.
You are now free to go.
But if you take our rail that's theft.
The look on their faces. Priceless!
The look on his face is the realization that the 🐈 ain’t worth it.
Come on… we need to do something about climate change and direct protests towards those involved are fine but this just puts people against your cause
These climate protesters been doing direct climate protests for years. Nobody reports on those though and nothing changes. This is the result of people getting desperate since nobody cares when it’s not absurd enough to make the news.
[удалено]
That might be the actual point of this
I was thinking the same thing. Like do these ppl realize how often their videos are posted and nobody is talking about their cause and everyone is just pointing and laughing? I almost wonder if it’s doing more harm than good. Like putting ppl like me who believe in fighting climate change on the same side as ppl who are climate change deniers.

Less than two weeks ago some protested by blocking a private jet terminal. Nobody heard about it because those protests aren't effective. This is.
Nein!!!!!!
Chad move
I've found him.......wally
Dumbasses
She has kind of a stunned look on her face. "This did not go as expected".
God dammit Gerta I told you this was a bad idea.
I just want the world to know you can care about the environment AND not be a complete fucking moron
Well we know that industrial meat production is harmful to the environment so I’m wondering what kind of vegetables she’s eating.
I bet the audience thought THAT was worth the price of admission! Also love the look on the lady's face and the haircut the dude is rockin'!
Climate activists like these are doing more damage to the cause than anything else. And it seems they all compete for the dumbest idea ever.
Man on the right is about to steal the moon bruh
Well I guess you could say they took a stand
I don't generally make fun of people's appearances, but damn.
Oh boy, another millennial couple doing something stupid instead of actually helping out their community or doing something meaningful!
That bitch emits more greenhouse gases than my car
I hope they were just shown the door and left glued to that 🤣
The poor planning and execution are pure comedy.
No brains in this operation.
How many people did it take to move her?
Legend has it they’re still glued to that stand, where they were dumped with it in the garbage bin section out back
Doors tune…. “ Hello…. I’m stupid won’t you put me in jail? “
Looks like a bunch of whitepeopletwitter mods, ready to ban anyone who has a slightly different opinion about literally anything
Imagine the impact on the environment if that woman had a more healthy diet. Looks like she has the carbon footprint of 4 people because of that alone.
THE perfect way to unite everyone against your cause
Whipping them with a stick till they move isn’t an option? I’m sure they will figure out how to unglue themselves really quick.
These people are so fucking stupid. I'm sorry, but these stunts are all dumb and accomplish nothing.
Lol that vacant expression, honestly some humans really are just cattle.
If people live within a normal BMI and not eat excess calories, it would have a huge impact on climate change.
So does eating twice as many calories as you need, qualify you as a climate activist?
It’s always the ugly ones
Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right, and here I am. STUCK TO THIS RAILING WITH YOU.
They look their exact IQ.
So this is what Jack Sprat and his wife have been up too...
Both of them actually need to visit a gym
Her stupid face cracks me up
What do you figure her carbon footprint is. Especially if she's a meat eater.
some people are simply unattractive, uninteresting and have no life. Therefore, they become activist. In the 3rd world they would become terrorists or menace others in some other ways.
After further inspection it was found out that the guy on the left never actually glued himself to the stand, he's just physically too weak to lift his arm from it
Harry and Hermione sure let themselves go..
These people look like they’re in an unsuccessful improve comedy troupe.
I call bullshit on the lady being a vegan
Does she know being overweight is bad for climate ?
She looks like a problem in every facet of her life.
I wish I could have seen the faces in the audience erupting with laughter the moment he lifted the railing. What a couple of ineffectual hipster doofuses.
Is someone paying people to make climate activism dumb and annoying?
I’m all for climate activism, but why are they being extreme in the most useless way possible? gluing yourselves to random shit is usually just an inconvenience to every day people, it’s not hurting the big corps that they should be going after. i just can’t imagine that people who feel this strongly, can’t come up with actual ways to help the climate crisis, and instead just do shit like this that helps no one.
You are also forgetting the that more extreme actions will drown out the message. I suppose that their logic is "we will annoy people into doing something", but that hasn't worked ever.
They both look dimwitted
Thank God the stand was removed within 30 seconds. She almost starved to death.
Why. Do. They. All. Look. Like. This.
😂 that look… “vott are ve to do now?”
They look so lost. What now?
This isn't activism. Doing this pisses people off and paints a negative image of your ideas, values and thoughts. I am an environmentalist, but this is the wrong way to get people thinking and aware.
She cannot talk she produces more gas then a cow
If anyone looks even a little bit into these just stop oil activists, they can clearly see that they are just being paid to make climate change activists look dumb.
The destruction of the planet we live on is some sad shit, these activists trying to add meaning to their life by causing a nuisance is sad. I want the world to be better while also wanting to see these activists shitted on
Harry Potter and The Embarrassing Karen
I just wish people would take action against companies then. We laugh and laugh but wait in 50 Years
Will and eleven from stranger things really fell off….
Doesn’t sound very German lol
Seems like Simple Jack participating in some sort of dating show. Best I've seen all week.
I mean if you really want to help climate change go on a killing spree and destroy airports and then kill yourselves would be my best advice or help developing nuclear energy and failsafes so we can run effective
Every millennial couple.
Ok can someone PLEASE explain to me what is their obsession with glue
It’s a way to make a statement, and complicates their removal from whatever they have attached themselves to
Pretty soon, they’ll have warning signs by the glue like did with the Ivermectin a while back.
They're doing it on purpose, I'm not sure what a warning would achieve.
Reality always writes the best comedy. Also these guys look so stereotypical you could think they put on an act
Ah, so this is that schadenfreude they've been banging on about. Now I get it
I can't help but think all this stupidity is staged by oil companies in order to make climate activists look bad.
Why are these assclowns effecting middle class people living there daily lives. Glue yourself to Rupert murdocks house. Like go after the big fish with private jets Jesus you stupid fucks.
If you want to save the environment, maybe stop eating so much of it.
The guy on the right has the hair cut of a shitty climate activist
In another sub someone said they ought to be put on the street and billed for the railing.
Lol dumbasses bringing attention to our planet dying such idiots laughing as we kill out at the people trying to do what little they can to stop it
These people fucked up, but I’m in support of peaceful protesting. Of all kinds. These people want to save the environment, and I’m for that
Climate intensifies
Just look at them…they are still processing
Those high vis jackets? Made from oil products.
All clothes are oil products now.
This is for you.
Did they have to use a forklift?
The real facepalm is people from developed countries (like the US with 7times the gas emissions per capita we should aim at), laughing at them for the act, while completely avoiding the reason behind.
clever
I didn’t realise musical instruments emit carbon emissions when played
Ugly pig and a skinny creep…..check!
Why do they always look goofy
Wait, Vector, dude, is that you? You look like shit.
Are we sure they’re No Oil? They look more at home with "forever alone"
Do they only look stupid to me?
I thought that dude was gonna steal the moon or something.
Since when did Vector become a radical vegan?
Strange looking activist: “welp Shirley, we didn’t think that one through. did we?”
I found waldo!
Looks like Will from Stranger Things never healed the trauma from childhood
I've never been more happy seeing something fail so beautifully
that was hilarious.. lol..
So the fat lady and kid from Stranger Things got escorted out quickly. I see that as a total win.
