    Take a look at these idiots. They’re literally trying to stop a bus by pushing back on it. When the bus ain’t stopping they then try to sit on the road in front of the bus only to realize the bus still ain’t stopping.

    The comments on YouTube are pure gold.

    10 bucks says these morons got to their "protest" in a car burning oil byproducts, filled with plastic from petroleum, on asphalt roads made of oil.

    The hypocrisy has reached absolute stupid levels. There is zero logic left. None.

    Hard to get below zero logic and that's where the environmental wackos have been from the beginning. One should understand that the argument against fossil fuels is in the end an argument against human freedom of move. Lefty hates the idea that when people get sick of their crap people can load up a uhaul and drive on to greener pastures which are almost always places not run by leftist.

    Buses more more people with less fuel. Why are they bothering the most fuel efficient vehicle on the road?

    I'm waiting to see if charges are placed on the bus driver for this. That's the problem with this sort of stuff, the law tends to side with the protestors especially in America, hopefully the law is less stupid over there.

    I've noticed quite the uptick of Europeans having about enough of these folks over the past few months. I saw a video a couple weeks ago of I think in Germany where they tried this stunt and a dude got out of his car and just started dragging them out of way by their hair lol. One of a handful of videos I've seen of similar events.

    I'm torn on this sort of thing. I don't think folks should be able to just mow these people over if they are in the streets blocking traffic. But on the other hand if you feel like you have the right to block traffic because you're whining about something and end up injured by a motor vehicle operator who is tired of your crap then I won't exactly lose sleep over it on your behalf...

    It's a stupid criticism. I mean, it's like saying somebody likes to eat animals when presented with the choice of eating animals or starving and they choose not to starve. We live in an oil-dependent society, it does not necessarily follow that means we all agree with it.

    But their actions are a good example of how it's better to do nothing to address a problem, than to do something stupid to address it.

    Did you notice the age of some of those protesters? They got indoctrinated when they were young and now they’re lost forever.

    If they want to protest oil then they should do it at the source, you know Saudi Arabia, Iran, Venezuela, etc.

    Hopefully, like "don't sit in front of a moving bus".

    The comments should be a wake up call to Youtube that their viewers are decidedly "unwoke." I didn't see a single comment actually supporting the idiots trying to block the road.

    Those protestors' nylon vests were made from coal.
