Spanish climate activists sprayed red paint across a superyacht owned by billionaire Walmart heiress Nancy Walton Laurie in Barcelona on Friday, the second time the yacht has been the target of protests in the past two months.

    Jealousy becomes vandalism?

    I wonder how they feel good themselves if people from Africa came and vandalised their house and say rich people should exist

      I believe these activists have probably had empathy for the global poor. This walmart bitch creates the global poor.

        They are free to give up their “wealthy” Spanish life and go help those “poor” people get rich.

        More action less talk.

          The billionaires are literally the reason everyone else is poor. They use that wealth and power to keep wages stagnant and neo-colonialism and neo-slavery churning.

              It’s how they use their power of capital, not the actual dollar amount. They have the decision making power above all the rest of us. They are deciding to create a deeply unfair and violent world.

        Comparison. These billionaire compare to average Spaniards are filthy rich.

        These Spaniards are filthy rich compare the most people in African.

        I doubt the action came out of “care”, more out of jealousy.

            not sure if the billionaire are jealous or not.

            The protest going around vandalising property to make their point is definitely an action from jealously.

            People have vote with their money to shop at Walmart.

                Some are, some not. Hard to judge.

                Everyone expects others to give what they have away like a river flowing downstream.

                  Show me a billionaire that isn’t motivated by greed. Seriously, I’ll wait.

                  But honestly, how is it you can know the motivations of a protestor and most other people but not whether a billionaire is greedy?
