Breitbart: Extinction Rebellion (XR) activists, increasingly overshadowed by the coronavirus, have been discussing new and ever more desperate ways to grab attention for their next big publicity stunt.
Mooted tactics include: committing suicide in public (perhaps at the UN’s next climate summit in Glasgow later this year); hunger strike to the death; painting parliament green; spraying traffic lights black; blocking every station, airport, and motorway in Britain; and “scare the fuck out of people”. more
Every suicide will produce one less idiot.
self emulation is a spectacular way to go. people are sure to film it on their smartphones and it will go viral to be sure.
Hungers strikes and public suicides. I’d endorse that for the snitpusses.
“at the present time, we simply do not have the numbers needed to achieve our goals through mass civil disobedience.” Yeah, that’s right. Despite the long practiced progressive tactic of claiming “majority” status, the ugly (to them) truth is that they are a small but very loud and obnoxious minority. The people they hurt or inconvenience aren’t going to put up with them much longer.
I think I hear a Darwin Award winner.
Half of self-immolators live to regret it. The other half die in regret.
Light yourselves on fire just like this guy did…

I approve of this message.
Yeah, they should go with killing themselves.
In the interests of kindness, before anyone does this, they should be advised that Extinction Rebellion is an astroturf group seeded by a German pharmaceutical billionaire.
“…self emulation is a spectacular way to go.”
You want them to impersonate themselves to death? That’s quite a strange desire.
I think that if they pretend they are willing to kill themselves, it justifies killing others to advance the cause.
Come on baby, light your fire! 😆
How much carbon will it release if you burn yourself?
