Climate Activists Thwarted in Paris
14 hours ago Charles Rotter

In a recent turn of events that is as predictable as it is tiresome, climate activists attempted to disrupt the first day of the Paris Olympics. This futile display of eco-theatrics was cut short by French authorities. While the incident raises minor concerns about the apparent lack of due process, it serves as yet another example of the overzealous and misguided antics of the climate alarmist brigade.


The activists in question aimed to hijack the global stage provided by the Olympics to propagate their climate change hysteria. According to reports, the protest was swiftly foiled by the police, who removed the activists before they could cause significant disruption. These eco-warriors, with their penchant for melodrama, evidently thought that throwing a tantrum in front of the world’s cameras would somehow translate into meaningful action.

Climate activists are increasingly adopting aggressive tactics to push their agenda. Their modus operandi involves high-profile disruptions designed to generate maximum media coverage. In this case, the protestors likely hoped to overshadow the Olympics.

However, such stunts do little to advance genuine discourse. Instead, they serve to alienate the general public, who might otherwise be sympathetic to reasonable and well-thought-out policies. It’s worth noting that these activists often rely on sensationalism rather than science, preferring to incite panic rather than engage in constructive dialogue.

While the swift action of the French police might be commendable in maintaining order, it does raise some questions about due process.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
