Strongly support activists in Scotland who are targeting SUVs in solidarity for deaths in catastrophic floods in Spain (Valencia) that has killed hundreds. In the online post they write:
Unless policy makers reflect fast changing reality of the world and rein in the criminally irresponsible these kinds of reactions will increase in future. Those travelling in SUVs could even be lynched as people target their frustrations due to lack of actions while climate catastrophe devastate their world. People in richer and advanced countries must take action and provide leadership since they are better placed to organize. Poorer and less advanced countries are trapped in 'GDP growth' as defined by West, the elite is too corrupt and compromised hence they will work the status quo of easy benefits. While rich countries in other parts of the world sustain fossil fuel and are theocratic primitives where common people have no say and lack quality education and evolved social values. Also, much of democracies in the world are defined by 'middle class' who are tutored to aspire for the neoliberal dreams and are bombarded with 'success' stories that sustain the system. They are too insecure and enmeshed in the system to take initiatives meanwhile they also aren't bothered about the marginalized facing the brunt of climate collapse. It is therefore for the common people in West to revolt and show us the way.
