Environmental Protesters Glue Themselves To Floor. They Complain They Can’t Poop. Conservatives Roar.
Daily Wire ^ | Oct 20, 2022 | By Hank Berrien

Environmental protesters determined to force the German automotive industry to decarbonize glued themselves to the floor at the Porsche pavilion in the Autostadt museum in Wolfsburg, Germany.

Then they complained there was no place to poop.

“Together with 15 other members of @ScientistRebel1 I have occupied the Porsche pavillion at @Autostadt, 9 of us glued to the floor and some of us on hunger strike until our demands to decarbonise the German transport sector are met,” self-described “experimental economist” Gianluca Grimalda tweeted.

“VW told us that they supported our right to protest, but they refused our request to provide us with a bowl to urinate and defecate in a decent manner while we are glued, and have turned off the heating. People in support can’t get out of the building,” he complained.

“Current actions and plans are grossly inadequate, and even these obligations are not being met. The rate of environmental destruction closely tracks economic growth, which leads to us extracting more resources from Earth than are regenerated,” Scientist Rebel states on its website, calling for “degrowth of economies” but assuring living standards will not be affected as the wealthiest of the population will pay for the cost.

“Governments and corporations aim to increase growth and profits, inevitably accelerating the destruction of life on Earth,” the website declares.

“To achieve decarbonisation on the required scale demands economic degrowth, at least in the short term,” it continues. “This does not necessarily require a reduction in living standards. For a just transition, the cost of degrowth must be paid for by the wealthiest, who have benefited enormously from the current destructive world order, while others have faced the consequences. A just transition to a sustainable system requires the wealth from the 1% to be used for the common benefit.”

Conservatives had a field day mocking the protesters:

“Perhaps you should have thought of bringing your pisspot before you glued yourself to the floor, you blithering idiot,” said Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro.

“S*** on the floor, no one said life was easy,” commentator Tim Pool said.

“Last loser to piss themselves gets the car,” Stephen Miller said.

“They have taken the Bridge and the Second Hall. We have barred the gates, but cannot hold them for long. The ground shakes… Drums. Drums in the deep. We cannot get out. A Shadow moves in the dark… We cannot get out… They are coming,” quipped Noah Blum.

“Nothing says serious effort like pooping in a bowl,” another added.

If they aren’t eating, why do they need a bowl?

The protesters should have been given all the food and drink they wanted. A nice chocolate desert laced with Ex-Lax would be a nice touch. Leave them in place. They glued themselves, so obviously they don’t want to be moved. Let them figure how to get out of that ‘mess’.

I wish they would give them a pisspot just so we could watch the Twister-type moves to get in position to use it.

Of course, those guys prob have much more experience peeing sitting down than I do.

So this is where Mrs. Ripley’s p.m. Headstart class went. They should have brought their Huggies and a “snack”.

Back the cars out, take down the displays, open the windows and turn on the sprinklers at 2:00 am for 10 minutes.

No, just leave them all where they glue themselves. Let them pee and poop all over themselves.

“a bowl to urinate and defecate in a decent manner...”

They have a different definition of “decent” than most of us, I think.

Turn off all utilities and lock them in there.

“The rate of environmental destruction closely tracks economic growth”


So if the above is true, the only way to stop destruction is to stop growth. To save the planet, the population must not only stop growing, it must decline. Those left must learn to do with less. Progress is the enemy, we must regress to save the earth.

No thank you.

I think that maybe they’re not glued sufficiently for people to take them seriously I think maybe gluing BOTH hands and their backsides to the floor would be much more effective.

But they do this in Germany mid-Fall in a heated building. They want to save the environment so badly? Turn the building heat and electric off. Then when they complain about that, start the cars and let them run inside to provide the heat and get rid of all the nasty gasoline in their tanks...

Liberals in a nut shell. They come in and inconvenience everyone and them complain that no one saves them from their own stupidity.
