James Doogue, from sunny Australia:

Here's an example of the ABC's Behind The News BTN which is shown to school children all around Australia. https://youtu.be/_AkkP0G2Xvo

This episode asks the question Is Art Vandalism Wrong?

It should be easy for the ABC to simply say that vandalism is against the law and isn't justified no matter what your cause.

They should make it clear that activists need to find legal ways to get their message across.

But because the staff at the ABC are hard Lefties, they don't want to criticise the climate activists.

They could have also spent a moment saying how ridiculous the 'Just Stop Oil' movement is by highlighting all the things we rely on every day which require oil production. Here's a list: https://www.ranken-energy.com/index.php/products-made-from-petroleum/

If we just stopped oil, most of our industry would grind to a halt. Nearly all transport would become unworkable. Most medical supplies would be scarce. Large scale cropping and food production would cease. People would be unable to earn a living or feed themselves. Developed countries would be turned into developing countries overnight.

Instead, the ABC program has left students thinking that if their cause is good, and politicians have stopped listening to them, then art vandalism, can be justified.
