    Why do people roll coal? Why do vandalize electric car chargers? Why do people tie ropes across bike lanes?

    Because a changing world is scary and people lash out at new things.

    The coal rollers think they’re fighting a vallient fight against evil corporations too, they invested their effort into being a car guy and it doesn’t feel fair that things are changing so they want to hurt people benefitting from the new tech.
