But protests have 13 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 1: to make sense, and this protest makes absolutely no sense. 14 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 1: Let's go to ABC News for the report. Police two 15 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 1: protesters who are arrested for vandalizing a masterpiece by Van 16 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 1: Go at the National Gallery in London.

The activists yelled, adding, are you more concerned 30 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: about the protection of a painting or the protection of 31 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: our planet in people? Great question. I personally care about 32 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 1: the protection of our planet in people. But I can 33 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: see a security guard who works there at the National 34 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: Gallery right now in that moment caring more about the 35 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: protection of that painting. So you, my friends, are under 36 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 1: arrest for vandalism, okay. The activists said they use soup 37 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 1: to show that the cost of living the cost of 38 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: living crisis is part of the cost of oil crisis. 39 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 1: She said fuel is unaffordable with the millions of cold 40 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 1: hungry families, and being that fuel is so high, it 41 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 1: makes it to where they can't even afford to heat 42 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: a tent of soup. Interesting, well, instead of wasting that 43 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: soup pouring pouring in on the van go, how about 44 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,519 Speaker 1: donate the soup to those same families you say can't 45 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: even afford the tent of soup. Huh, just the thought. Now, 46 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,360 Speaker 1: this is a thing where a lot of members of 47 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: the Just Stop Oil team are gluing their hands the 48 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: frames of famous paintings, and I am here to tell 49 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: you it's all a waste of glue. Okay. I know 50 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,279 Speaker 1: that you think you are bringing attention to this situation, 51 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 1: and you are, but not for the right reason. See, 52 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: here's the thing. If you want people to care, then 53 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: you have to damage something a mass majority of people 54 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: care about. Okay, Van goes, I mean that's what the 55 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: bougie and the leader of the world. You gotta attempt 56 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: to damage something that a massive amount of people use 57 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,519 Speaker 1: and care about it. Go damage a Chick fil A 58 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 1: or something, all right, glue yourself to a counter a 59 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 1: Chick fil A and keep everyone from getting that number 60 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,359 Speaker 1: one with cheese. Okay, you damage and glue yourself to 61 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 1: something that's more than that, more than a niche group 62 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 1: of people care about glue yourself to in these cheeks. Okay, 63 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 1: I'm sure somebody will pay attention in and I understand 64 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,079 Speaker 1: the Van Goal is one of the most valuable paintings 65 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:27,839 Speaker 1: in the world, and this worth for a lot. But 66 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 1: I don't think a massive majority of people care about 67 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,799 Speaker 1: that level of elitism. Okay, damaging a van Goal and 68 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: more of a protest against capitalism. Maybe I don't know. 69 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 1: I just know that the more I talk about this, 70 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 1: the more I forget what the hell they were protesting 71 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 1: to begin with, and that is the point. Please give 72 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 1: the members of the group, just stop oil the biggest 73 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: sea hall got to think these protests a little.
