‘Hippie activists’ vandalise another artwork in museum

[@tamimrktz6966]

Because there's no real consequences. Until these bandits are put in prison for ten years, they'll keep doing it.

@@gj7596 that's just sad

[@samuelhowie4543]

And that caused me to go buy some shirts from the company that sells them.

[@jamesmatheson5115]

Why are they being called Hippie Activist for, they are common criminals and should be sent to jail, end of story.

[@tonybonczek1348]

Lock her up for this, where’s the Police? That’s vandalism.

[@AuditingTheCorrupt]

First off, actual legit hippies wouldn't deface art or vandalize property

[@Nightingale1000]

Technically they can, there are radical factions of those guys there.

[@SharonMcwilliams78]

They are criminals simple as that.

[@stevenschnepp576]

That's called No True Scotsman. And yes, they would. They'd be just as snooty and insufferable about it, too.

[@kooringagnd]

Yeah they would. They were always a bunch dope addled thieves when I was growing up.

[@ChristovanRensburg]

Isn’t the propellant in that spray paint can harmful to the environment?

[@BrainsIntoMonumentsREAL]

What the hell does this achieve? How does ruining something and getting yourself in legal trouble help the environment?

[@Scotty123-o3u]

Young, not wealthy, powerless, seeing governments and corporations doing way too little to address an issue which all scientific institutions recognise will seriously threaten economies, livelihoods, biodiversity and quality of life. Old white blokes who read tabloids are the most ill informed sector of society.

[@BIANCA_D16]

How do they get in? Don’t they get checked? Oh please

[@TheFiown]

You used to NOT be able to go into a museum with a back pack or a drinks can but with a film crew and some cans of paint it's OK ?

[@PhantomFilmAustralia]

Film crews were permitted, though their bags and gear were inspected.

[@stephenbanning7740]

It's because it's all a setup to drive the WOKE madness, it's all part of the big agenda

[@stephenbanning7740]

Its all part of the plan

[@stephenbanning7740]

The same way, my first 2 comments were auto censored because i mentioned coke with a W

[@maryaliceowen9165]

so you can’t say woke when you are watching something woke?

[@BitterTast3]

I can't even watch these anymore. It's so infuriating to see example after example of SECURITY being non-existent in these places!!!

[@NicNakBraun]

Total POS..straight to jail.

[@takemedreaming]

Activist or brat?

she has that guy with her like he's some sort of security guard He's a coward

[@moncker33]

So pathetic

[@gailgray6653]

It’s heartbreaking. Why. Little brats.

[@PhantomFilmAustralia]

Preserving the plastic protector in order to "preserve history" regarding the activist's act of vandalism only incentivises threats to national treasures. The museum ought to be ashamed of itself for immortalising the destructive behaviour toward our history.

[@NeilHensley-e8w]

Has anyone been arrested and suffer the consequences of it? If it will continue as it is.

[@blueberry3168]

She was crowd funding to pay her legal fees

[@billy-jadeachiu2296]

Aren't the pictures all protected by glass? Is that WHY they don't give harsh punishments bc no real damage is done?

[@ismzaxxon]

I am shocked she isn't in jail/ sack the curators. I want my tax money back.

[@redwood76]

Vandalism for vandalism sake. I hope to prosecute

[@thinkingoutloud7425]

Was the painting protected by glass?

[@ThreenaddiesRexMegistus]

According to my artist mate, oil paintings don’t do well under glass, but watercolours do. But it’ll have to come to that eventually with all these idiots destroying artworks.

[@jagab1672]

Honestly thats on the museum, letting this happen multiple times, where is the security?

[@queenofnevers6990]

they are sick

[@mikaelafox6106]

Is she Sky News' Jessica? I don't know who the brunette chick is. Lady, why do you feel it's okay to reward a criminal for her vandalism? The spray paint should be removed and the painting should be rehung where it was. You do NOT reward bad behavior. What's so difficult to understand? For Pete's sake, this climate idiot is so stupid she used an aerosol can of spray paint! As if that's good for the environment. You don't reward criminals. By that lady's train of thought, why punish anyone? What a moron.

[@Countthemilestones1x1]

😂 protesting climate suffering while spraying poison!

[@SharonMcwilliams78]

Pathetic.

[@comment.highlighted]

They rather destroy things than put the effort into making things better 🤷‍♂️

[@Scotty123-o3u]

What have you done for environment and climate change?

[@comment.highlighted]

@@Scotty123-o3u 😳😆 I’m talking about not putting effort into destroying things, and your snotty comment is that? 🙂 Simply recycling ♻️ , which requires no destruction of property, does more good than that 🤷‍♂️

[@alexandrugeorgescu6366]

ohhh NO, here we go again... *!LEAVE THE ART ALONE!* the paintings hang on the walls, statues stand still, books sit on the shelves etc ?what harm have they done?

[@Chrisuperfly1]

Funny, where are the security guards at?

[@stevenschwizer627]

Ten years in jail.

[@dmr6640]

20 years

[@jakestevens3694]

These people have too much free time and too many free hand outs, get a fucking job. Destroying art is wrong and pointless, and even if you are against something vandalising it ain't going to change shit, if anything cause resentment and make them want to upset you even more.

[@rock-bottom2023]

Sounds like a racket to me.

[@justme.9711]

Polyester aboriginal flag and traditional spray paint - in a metal can, from bunnings. It's their culture right?

If you live in Australia you use a capital A for Aboriginals.

sums us up doesnt it...too busy destroying beauty and art instead of creating it. Be the Change n all that eh

[@brad7090]

You would think at this point all the artwork would be secret replicas.

[@JosephSeibert-d8e]

How tf is there no security in these places after all these incidents? The people all look suspicious and have cameras, bags,paint etc it wouldn't be hard to follow and stop them before the vandalize stuff. These activists aren't any stronger than they are intelligent and useful so most average people could stop them. I see why bystanders don't do anything because they would definitely be locked up way longer than any activist would.

[@JeremyDarby-w6x]

WTF

[@GrandpaVince]

Vince still can't believe they vandalised vinceys favourite good old vincey van gogh

[@TransActionNewsNetwork]

Sky News love your network. Just curious if you could find another word to describe the criminals defacing artwork. Vandals were a proud people from the fourth century welcomed into Rome by Emperor Valentinian along with Visigoths, Ostrogoths, Alan’s, Huns, Vulgarians, and a number of other barbarians from lands north of the River Danube. Please try to find a more inclusive term like “defacing” that accurately and precisely describes the crime the hippies are perpetrating. Vandals were a proud people and some still remain all these years later.

[@nk5io]

disgusting

[@moopius]

Gee I bet the CEO of Woodside is distraught over this act of genius.

[@QuantumPyrite_88.9]

The museums love this behavior and so does "law enforcement".

[@KrystianFractal]

Most of the "art" is spam anyway. Stop worship of this bs too. That's a strike on vanity of "art enviroment". Joke today. Money only.

[@Goodbyeis4eva]

You’re obviously talentless.

[@ThreenaddiesRexMegistus]

What, an 1889 artwork isn’t authentic enough for you? It’s not like it’s a banana taped to a wall. 😏

[@KrystianFractal]

@@ThreenaddiesRexMegistus Artists are dead and most of them lived and died poor. Too much blood on the valuable items. Wars, mobsters etc. And now even a soup. I can draw and paint. Items from the past have no value to me. Good copy that represents style is good enough.
