climate activism, court case, wtf
In the Netherlands, two climate activists have just been convicted and sentenced to two months in prison. Their crime? Gluing themselves to a glass pane in front of a painting.
The judge's justification for a prison sentence was that "they must have known that they could have damaged the painting [even though they didn't], and it was not a peaceful form of protest". What the actual fuck.
One of the convicted people was even only there to make a video of it, and didn't do anything themselves.
