Getting their opposition to engage with the brainwashed denier masses is exactly what the money wants. They can leverage money and scale to convert and you can’t.
Hitting them in the art is a bit of class-oriented warning, and if you don’t see the subtlety of what’s happening I’d argue that’s on you.
edit: Not that I’m not sympathetic. I spent 2019 in a dark place admiring the folks who managed to shut down that UK airport just by flying drones.

Sorry but this is just so naive. First of all this is not a "rich vs poor" issue. Lots of people who I suspect you'd consider to be "rich" are very much on the side of climate change action. Second, the very select few rich people who are making these decisions aren't taking this as a warning. Third, you are making the seemingly common mistake of thinking that art is for the rich - it is not. Art in your personal home may be for the rich, but this is in a museum that is publicly accessible.

I mean, it's kind of on them... It's on them to get their message across.

OK so you're saying that we can't engage with the opposition and instead we should use subtle "class oriented" scare tactics?
You don’t understand my position but you claim it is naive and no one else’s position makes sense. I am not against wealthy people but you make a strawman to simplify your attack.
You have not responded to any of the points that refuted your points. I don’t know if you’re trolling, combative, or what.
You are proposing a simplistic first-order response “engage with the opposition” that has been going on since before internet forums were a thing, while calling me naive. I’ve explained why your proposal doesn’t work but you haven’t engaged with it.
If you say so.
> Who fits your second group? Who is it that needs the information that doesn’t have it already?
Climate change deniers, of course. Go engage with them. It can't be any more pointless than fucking up some painting.
