Where are all the stories of climate activists getting arrested while attempting to bypass museum security? How are all of these stunts so successful?
If this is another Just Stop Oil one, then they more or less clear the stunt with museums beforehand. At least in the article I read about the soup or whatever, they had checked to make sure that the painting wouldn't be harmed
It's why I dislike them so much

Anything performative is recuperative.
politics is a performance. leon czolgosz said "I killed the President because he was the enemy of the good people -- the good working people. I am not sorry for my crime. I am sorry I could not see my father." And they gave him an Oscar.
Politics is a performance in general, but there's transformative performance and meaningless. Isolated adventurism in general goes nowhere even if you pull a Czolgosz. Doing something like that might give organisers more of a propaganda win but it won't do the work of organising. Building momentum around movements and ultimately parties is what gives the goal enough weight to resist reaction.
