    and you don’t seem to even know it happened

    When you pretend to be able to read my mind via the internet and then try to use that in order to justify your argument, I feel no compunction in immediately dismissing you— you’re clearly irrational and will do/say anything to further your agenda… just like these people who would destroy priceless works of art or light themselves aflame just for attention when alternatives are available and such methods have never been proven to be effective.

    Don’t blame me for my valid criticisms. Just find better ways to achieve your goals.

      Your valid criticism is… to beat the shit out of them? I mean look, I’ve seen some bad criticism but that’s not even in the right basket.

        Valid criticism is to call out their (your) destruction of priceless artifacts, and priceless art and their burning of themselves just for attention. Attention which accomplishes nothing.

        Your only response is to blame me for pointing that out. How childish. How dare you.

        You’ve got nothing but empty intentions and empty gestures. What a disappointing thing you are. You are nothing but the tantrums you throw, and no one will remember you for anything but that. Tantrums.

          While I understand your thought process, that in some way, people who actually destroy priceless works of arts and or historical sites. I understand your desire to beat the shit out of them…. OK, that wasn’t worded quite as well as I planned, but I think you get the idea. I understand somewhat of where you’re coming from, what I would ask for you to do is to read the article and just look more carefully because they didn’t destroy anything. The painting is covered by glass. they made a mess. Yes, probably destroyed part of the wall and may have stained it, which is obviously destruction. I will admit that. But the painting itself was unaffected. It’s covered completely. The protesters knew that before they ever threw anything at it.

          There was no actual destruction of the painting there.

          I do still understand where you’re coming from that people who do destroy priceless works of art, I do understand where you’re coming from, on wanting to beat the crap out of them.

          And I’m rereading what I just typed throughout this and damn my ability to type and speak coherently sucks today. Guess it’s just one of those days for me.

        So you admit that your own ideology is to blame. It’s your own audiology that has failed.

      If you knew someone self-immolated and didn’t get coverage, what is your reasoning behind the very stable and very cool suggestion that you would beat them up for publicity? That a self-inflicted death wouldn’t get attention, but maybe a voluntary assault would?

      You just didn’t know, but can’t drop the tough guy act to admit it.
