throwing soup at paintings
That was Just Stop Oil, also a UK group. Their goal was to make people talk about them and what they stand for. Here we are, 4 years later, talking about it, so I guess that was a success.
Not only you missed the mark, but you named two countries that are quite known for people successfully standing up to the government in recent decades, Germany through unions and strikes, and France through throwing bricks at rich people’s buildings and setting some stuff on fire. Both seem to be something yanks need to actually learn.

That was great britain. Fuckers don’t even wanna be european it seems. Their little island location sure has rotted their brains into thinking they’re something special.

Just to let you know the approx stats of the population: 1/4 voted leave, 1/4 votes remain, 1/4 didn’t bother turning up to vote, 1/4 weren’t registered/too young to vote

Yeah I really don’t know how that close of a result justified actually leaving.
