They're clogging exhaust pipes with foam: Russian sabotage in Germany to discredit the Greens?

[lemmchen@feddit.org]

That's a shit take. This is a false flag operation to discredit the climate activists scene and not some sort of environmentalism.

[grue@lemmy.world]

Don't get me wrong: for all I know, maybe a ban is justified. I just didn't think those particular comments previously cited were enough to do it, and I'm glad you investigated further.

Anything to stop oil is helping us

If you plug a loud muffler with foam they will just cut it off and run open pipes.

This can kill; I know someone who died of carbon monoxide poisoning due to a clogged exhaust. It ventilates away if the vehicle is in motion but they were idling.

They would not get a Straßenzulassung or operation permit in Germany anyway for safety reasons.

Good. Easier for the next lot of foam to get to the engine.

But this is not helping to stop oil, this is helping those who try to stop people from stopping oil.

[elrecoal19_0@lemmy.world]

This isn't helping stop oil or achieve climate action, this is precisely to keep the people who wanna stop oil and take climate action out of goverment lmao
