    How is this dangerous to human life in any way? They did this to the plane while it was in the ground. Presumably someone is going to clean it before attempting takeoff, and I doubt a new paint job is going to severely impact the safety of the airplane regardless. I mean I guess if they somehow clogged all the static ports it would be a problem, but that’s not particularly likely and only really a deadly situation if you take off at night or with less than competent pilots. Those are supposed to be checked before every flight regardless.

      You got my point backwards boss. The climate protestors care, the people bugging about rocks don’t care about human life, they care about rocks that have historically been vandalized to make a point literally hundreds of times.

        They’re rocks as well. They’ll be fine. A little paint doesn’t destroy them like temperatures do to the planet.

        You might want to go and tell that to the people down voting your comment. Clearly people are not understanding what you put, an edit might be in order.

          I’m not particularly bothered by down votes, to me it sorta weeds out bad faith actors anyway.

              It makes perfect sense.

              “It’s literally rocks…” Whats just rocks? Stonehenge!

              “You’re valuing human life less than rocks, I think that says more about you than them.”

              What are the protestors protesting for? Climate change.

              Ie. If vandalizing Stonehenge is a bigger issue to you than climate change then you’re valuing human life less than rocks.

              It could not be any more clear and I think that’s pretty evident based on the lack of offering a better wording.

                It sounded like you are comparing the stonehenge protest to the one with the planes, not with climate change. Safety is critical in aviation, so it might sound dangerous to people that the planes were painted. I would instead say something like “they are valuing literal rocks over the lives of people claimed by climate disasters”. Then it’s clear you are talking about climate change in the second instance, and not the people flying the plane.

                    No. You still don’t get it. People think you are comparing stone henge (just rocks) to human lives (potential air disaster from painting a plane and damaging something). Rather than the human lives being lost from climate change.

                    I legitimately can’t tell if you are legitimately struggling to understand or you are one of the bad faith actors you talk about.
