Climate Activists Spray-Paint Darwin’s Grave in London to Draw Attention to Climate Disaster
In the U.K., two members of the direct action climate group Just Stop Oil were arrested after they spray-painted the words “1.5 is dead” on the grave of Charles Darwin at London’s Westminster Abbey Monday.

By contrast, historical artifacts and working peoples' livelihoods have value.

Truly an individual with valuable time.
So the only form of viable protest is one where the protesters trade their lives for the lives of the rich?
Seems like big talk from a keyboard warrior.
Maybe you should go do it since you don't like how they protest.
Nah, they should frame you for it and then we'd be spared your vaporing.
