Peaceful protests are promoted by those in power as the ultimate form of expression because it’s completely inconsequential to them and easily ignored.
I am with you on that point. And I didn’t mention stuff like road blocks, because I see them related to the issue and they may yield some results.
But a large part of the population oposses the last generation and in extension what they are trying to do.
Not that I have a good solution.
I am nearly 40 now, and fighting in this fight since I am 16. I know how much was done and that nothing happened on a political layer.
But giving politicians such a large attack surface by committing serious crimes (and braking onto the airfield of an airport is a serious crime) is not very smart
The idea of last generation is to bring up the climate crisis on a regular bases. They are actually extremely good at it. Seriously they got more articles written about them, then Fridays for Future got at their peak.
I honestly believe them turning on hitting the rich, rather then more average Germans is a smart move though. The general sympathy towards people flying private jets is rather limited.
I used to think that. However, we’ve had lots of peaceful protests and whatnot.
That did not seem to do anything and time ran out awhile ago.

Oh, there I am with you! 100%
It’s a petty that it is rather hard to burn those private machines down …
I’m a bit past 40 and experience shows me that nothing has worked so far. I don’t have a solution either.
If there is one though, I am pretty sure it’s not peaceful.
You are for certain right on this. And I expect that happening soon.
