Visitors at Louvre look on in shock as Leonardo da Vinci masterpiece attacked by environmental protesters

Two environmental protesters have hurled soup on to the Mona Lisa at the Louvre in Paris, calling for “healthy and sustainable food”. The painting, which was behind bulletproof glass, appeared to be undamaged.

Gallery visitors looked on in shock as two women threw the yellow-coloured soup before climbing under the barrier in front of the work and flanking the splattered painting, their right hands held up in a salute-like gesture.

One of the two activists removed her jacket to reveal a white T-shirt bearing the slogan of the environmental activist group Riposte Alimentaire (Food Response) in black letters.

    Protestors will almost always allow emergency vehicles through their roadblocks.

    Load of crap. That group Just Stop Oil managed to delay a woman getting her kid to the hospital. And the peices of shit who run it refuse to apologize. It doesn’t matter anyway because when the road is blocked up it still delays everything. Also who the fuck made them god? When did they get permission to just decide for the rest of us who gets to go and who doesn’t? I didn’t vote for them.

    People always bring this up

    Yes people tend to mention when you do shit that hurts people. Maybe there is a fucking reason for it?

    but the reality is they just don’t want protests to cause the most minor of inconveniences for them.

    Oh look a bloody mind-reader here! Everyone stop we got a guy here who can read the minds of thousands of people across multiple continents across decades. Hey since you are a mind reader what do you think I am thinking about your cavalier attitude towards human life right now?

      Oh look a bloody mind-reader here!

      you’re the one claiming - in several comments, and without evidence - to know that:

      • “no one even knows what it is about"
      • “no one else knows what their cause was about” etc.

      and the most tone-deaf comment bordering on self-awareness: “Someone completely unable to grasp that there are others around them and they got their own needs and wants.”

        you’re the one claiming

        Two wrongs make a right? Kinda “logic” I should expect from someone who blocks ambulances.

        no one even knows what it is about"

        You can read the comments for yourself. That is if you aren’t too busy making sure ambulances are blocked. You don’t need ESP to read.

        without evidence -

        Literally in the comments and in the article.

        nd the most tone-deaf comment bordering on self-awareness

        Tu quoque. Logical fallacy. Ding ding ding ding. The mind reader ambulance blocker committed a logical fallacy. Ding ding ding.

          In the comments I’m reading, a good half of them know what this protest is about. That’s not no one.

          I never said this. you can’t even make your argument without inventing things I never said. or are you just lost because you keep making stuff up in so many different threads that you don’t even know who you’re talking to?

          You can read the comments for yourself.

          lmao, no. you made the claim. that means it’s your job to prove it. if you think I’m doing your work for you, you’ve go another thing coming.

          Literally in the comments and in the article.

          again, either you read other comments and article than I did, or you’re full of crap. but go ahead and prove it. I await the evidence.

          Tu quoque. Logical fallacy. Ding ding ding ding. The mind reader ambulance blocker committed a logical fallacy. Ding ding ding.

          tu quoque is only fallacious if I use it to assert that you’re wrong. I used your lack of evidence for that. the list of quotes is just calling you out as a hypocrite on top of everything else.

          you could use a course in rhetoric and debate.
