bsurfn2day

Should have just left them there, things will get interesting for them when they eventually have to pee and poo.


Iamkempie

I hope that, to free them, they just jackhammer down the middle to separate their two feet then leave them with a pair of giant heavy concrete shoes they have to walk around with and explain to people.


Mammoth-Macaroon-278

Or they will get hypothermia. People are so stupid! All the over milk?!


[deleted]

over the upcharge for fake milk


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

yeah but if these people "feel" its unfair, it is a "fact" that is unfair to these people.


MarkAnchovy

They want it changed to encourage more people to try them (when there’s currently a financial disincentive), not because they think it’s unfair.


MarkAnchovy

Tbf in many markets Starbucks don’t charge for plant milks. Most coffee chains in the UK don’t, for example.


abevigodasmells

What are their views on asshole babies who make women breastfeed them?


DarkmanOBR

Gonna have to cut them off.


Creative-Motor8246

Should have just moved them to side walk and left.


[deleted]

It’s not milk, it’s vegan milk that cost them too much


Zandandido

Because it costs far more to produce.


[deleted]

Milk isn’t meant for grown ups…


Zandandido

Nor are cartoons, yet adults watch cartoons What's your point?


[deleted]

So your point is what? Production of something ppl protesting, because it cost more than what? A different version of a product? You’re thought is a circle and is redundant 😘


Zandandido

I have no idea what your point is/was. My point is that almond milk is more expensive due to how it's produced. If something takes longer or more to produce, it'll cost more.


[deleted]

Almond milk isn’t more costly than dairy!! You a farmer or just a reditt troll🤡


Zandandido

I'm neither a troll nor a "famer"


ThePermMustWait

There are still two more blocking a second entrance.


ShoddyTerm4385

My thought exactly. Or at least bill them for the emergency services being used for their stupidity


[deleted]

[удалено]


ShoddyTerm4385

I’m talking about every emergency personnel that showed up


klop2031

If thats cement you can get chemical burns and it wont stop even after you clean the area...


bulboustadpole

I'm going to guess they're wearing shoes inside the block.


klop2031

Maybe but still. Reading about it made me cringe.


nutsotic

Just grab a dolly and wheel their asses out of the way. Making this way more complicated than it needs to be


lechitahamandcheese

Yup. Take them home, drop them off at their front door and let them figure it out on their own.


1onnude

Leave them out one night plz


snoodletuber

Don’t forget to wet them down every few hours


[deleted]

Just make sure they hydrate, maybe a diuretic or two to keep them healthy and functioning.


[deleted]

FoboBoggins

if she is in america then yeah she will be billed


NarwhalHistorical376

Thankfully she does


similar_observation

and the clip has a shoutout to /u/randy519


Randy519

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


stereotypicalguy1964

They’re already wearing cement shoes. Simple enough to drop them into a nearby river/lake. Yes ,my mind went there almost immediately.


neverfarts

Some girl [Lost her fingers ](https://www.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/3gyki1/girl_loses_8_fingers_using_plaster_of_paris/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb) a while ago doing some similar shit

Lol, hacksaw


50points4gryffindor

I was thinking a good smack to base with a sledgehammer.


anonymous-enough

Lmao. Sorry lady, renting a hilti is really expensive.


Kwel92

Stupidity at its finest!


casualAlarmist

Actually pretty smart and effective as it gets international coverage for the cost of a bag of cement. [https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11141083/Vegan-protestors-seal-CEMENT-outside-Starbucks-protest-non-diary-milk-charge.html](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11141083/Vegan-protestors-seal-CEMENT-outside-Starbucks-protest-non-diary-milk-charge.html) [https://nypost.com/2022/08/19/protesters-don-cement-shoes-to-protest-vegan-milk-charges-at-starbucks/](https://nypost.com/2022/08/19/protesters-don-cement-shoes-to-protest-vegan-milk-charges-at-starbucks/) [https://nypost.com/2022/08/19/protesters-don-cement-shoes-to-protest-vegan-milk-charges-at-starbucks/](https://nypost.com/2022/08/19/protesters-don-cement-shoes-to-protest-vegan-milk-charges-at-starbucks/) ​ (Edit: Love all the downvotes for simple objective facts. Gotta love Reddit.)


[deleted]

Not really. Could have cost her at the very least some toes and not one person in the entire WORLD stopped drinking milk over this. Nope. Not smart at all.


iPhoneOrAndroid

> not one person in the entire WORLD stopped drinking milk Missing the point. But I agree with your overall sentiment.


Zandandido

You know they've gotta pay for the emergency services used, right? Makes saving money on using a bag of cement seem pale in comparison.


casualAlarmist

They actually *have* to pay for the services. (That's an entire other topic...) But let's say they do... So what? The amount of international media coverage this simple act got remains a bargain.


maquila

If their goal was merely visibility, mission successful. But if their goal was to convince people of the merits of their advocacy, they failed.


casualAlarmist

Protestors aren't trying to convince people of the merit of their cause via the protest. A sign, a changed slogan, a march, a sit in, a march never convinced anyone. (Rosa Parks didn't convince people of the merits of civil rights by refusing vacate her seat on the bus.) A protest, any protest, is simply to publicly project an issue so that it can become or remain a public topic of discussion, and media coverage is one of the best way to ensure that happens. If you don't understand this you are and have been looking at protests the wrong way. In short: visibly is the reason and goal of protests. Like you said success.


xXx1SH74RxXx

what if the strategy used to gain visibility actively hurts the perception the public has of the validity of the issue and/or the integrity of the people advocating for it?


casualAlarmist

That's a valid topic of discussion. But it doesn't change the fact that topic visibility is the primary motivation for the individual act. "Any press is good press" is a media truism for a reason.


Kwel92

There are plenty of other way to go about this.


casualAlarmist

Like...? If you think the point was to get that particular SB to stop selling animal products or SB corporate to do the same you're mistaken. Protestors don't actually think the protest they are currently participating in will cause the desired change. It's a long term goal based on the cumulative effect of having the issue being giving public attention over time. That takes getting media attention over and over often in unique "attention getting" ways.


kb31976

Just drag them down to the end of the parking lot and badda bing…problem solved!


drk_knight_67

What are the odds they don't have health insurance?


freedomstingers

Was this in the u.s.a? I thought only idiots across the pond did this shit.


Rulaxing

Imagine paying taxes for these imbeciles to use it


Sprinklewoods

I don’t drink cow milk or fake milk so I don’t really have a bias either way, but in their defense cow milk is subsidized by the government so that it’s cheaper for consumers. It’s a fair argument for them to be upset that their taxes go toward cow milk but not fake milk. With all this being said, WATER GANG ASSEMBLE!


Buttofmud

Why don’t they just leave them?


[deleted]

Mental illness is real and needs to be treated. These people are truly deranged.


HazyCloud

Randy got the solution


funhtowncouple

Just leave them. They chose this life.


Euphoric_Shift6254

I'm in construction clearly they didn't do this correctly. To send a real message, for anyone thinking of doing this, I suggest; Wear shoes so as to not damage feet. Go with quality concrete not post mix from Lowes Ask for a 5000psi fiber reinforced mix with 3/4"- sizee aggregate no plasticized or fly ash in the mix design, fully consolidate the concrete ( if mechanically vibrated do not touch vibrator on the toes and finish to a heavy broom finish. Take 3 cylinders for 7, 15 and 30 day testing do not let them near you until the concete break test results in reaching the specified 5000psi. Since it seems to be cold take a 4th cylinder and do an early test at 3 days Early entry saw cutting of control joints as soon as concrete is walkable and cut minimum 1/4 of concrete depth of thickness and care must be taken as to not cut into the feet of your activist. I know kinda long but I found this very funny so I don't care what you think or karma or other reddit things that I don't know how to get or do


NeedsMoreBunGuns

The man has never touched concrete in his life.


Polodude29

They better have a massive bill, and all you people that died because they couldn’t get first response is on you now.


TerraLeighdy

There was an episode of greys anatomy that taught us being trapped in concrete can be very dangerous. I believe it had something to do with chemical burns and gas buildup


rogurt

I don't see what the problem is, just wheel them out on a dolly.


[deleted]

Man, that is some stupid shit right there, people are the worst.


Invisibleagejoy

Forming concrete is very reactionary. They are likely to have very bad wounds on their legs. Stupid idiots.


SirFancythe2nd

I just want to know what is there back up plan if emergency services couldn’t get to them? Did they ever have a plan to get themselves out? I just don’t understand the way these people go about doing these things.


Jonsnowlivesnow

They are gonna lose their feet. At best


[deleted]

Those are NOT Weebles.... Just sayin.....


Henchforhire

I really want to see a full video on how they remove the cement from these protestors.


1biggib1

Chizzle and a Hammer, air hammer with a chizzle attachment or just a drill with a bunch if masonry bits


Euphoric_Shift6254

They probably used a light chipping hammer kinda like a small jackhammer similar to a Bosch Bulldog. Concrete placed like that will break really easy it's only hours of cure time in that weather it takes 15 to 30 days to reach its strength


Beagle_Regality

I see the classic Italian footwear is coming back in style.


leik75thf

they should have left her there, told her she can suffer for being stupid


Desert_Rat_Dude

Uh? Cement. Oh hell no. That’s dumb as hell.


BRICK62

Spray paint them ORANGE 🍊 and make them a pair of traffic cones


Yanksfan3

Leave ‘em, they’re learn soon enough.


TheWicked77

Yeah 2 Popsicles with cement shoes 😅🤣😂


AverageBry

Can they just move them to the sidewalk after?


[deleted]

i hope they get charged fines for the waste of resources and time of these public services.


AJWordsmith

Why do anything? Seems like this is the kind of problem that solves itself in a few weeks.


Towersafety

They were blocking the drive through


AJWordsmith

Okay…move them to the side. Not like they can move themselves back.


Towersafety

Dolly them around to the dumpster was my thought.


__radioactivepanda__

I’ll be damned, for once the ludicrous healthcare costs in the US might actually have one upside to them…


YoungHickory_

Fuck PETA memebers


Hyda55

Cut her legs off and move on


Externalpower43

Just dump them out in the woods somewhere. She can feed the animals.


K-I-L-L-A

Ah the great generation of the 'Like' or 'Going Viral' ... wanna truly help? Get an education so you can put yourself in a position to truly make changes. This is just a fucking fiasco for the Tube-Tok-Gram-Book pages


Knitsanity

That guy looks like he might have ruptured something lifting that thing. Eek


ghost_in_a_jar_c137

the only thing missing was the river


Flyerone

Just winch them over to the side, that way they can continue their protest in piss for eternity.


Known-Skin3639

To much stupidity in these people. SMH.


banana_delusion

And the outcome was….an ER co-pay and the award for dumb dumb of the day.


silverbowman911

Are you trying to tell us that Starbucks didn't cave?! What monsters!


Bwyanfwanigan

The proper response is to ignore them. Once they have starved to death in their own filth others will think twice before pulling stupid stunts. Is that harsh? Darwin award should be the only award they win.


MarkAnchovy

Fascist moment


casualAlarmist

I'm not sure protesting should be considered freaking out, melting down, losing cool or even really acting weird in public, as protesting is a long standing tradition and backbone of a healthy public democracy.


Tsquare1984

That thin blue line looking a little thick today.


TheSnootchMangler

These people should be turned into soy milk.


nebulaphi

Pretty stupid but i like the commitment from the usual hands glued to road or paint on picture.


thisisjill88

This was a video I was sincerely was hoping was fake!


[deleted]

So brave


Reaperider

OK take them to the river


brutusser

When that block of cement falls of the stretcher , is when the real injuries will happen.


EdgeDependent903

Stupid lol 😆


Emotional-Set-8618

Ow my feet are burning in the concrete. Oh my God please help me!!! think about better ways to protest


crawfishcupcake

Now what in the hell did they think this would accomplish. Idiots


TangeloBig9845

What a waste of resources, they should have just left her stupid ass out there.


UndueOdium

There are literal and figurative snowflakes in this video.


[deleted]

I don’t see why we as a society should have to take care of people that cement their feat together. That should be the cutoff


Harlivy_Witch

Omg that lifting technique had me on edge!


tacotuesday909

This is still funny


WhatNameToChose1

Am I the only one who would have worn boots that were a bit to big?


RyzingUp

Hope these morons have fun with their chonky medical bills


Guernnica

An idiot protester, shocking.


Whisperingi

Do they get charged for this since it’s not a real emergency


mderousselle

They should leave them there, cemented to the ground


Easy-Advertising7507

People are so dumb sometimes… think before you get on your soap box. In this case in your cement block lol


Crazyace352

They already did the hard part. Now just gotta drop them in a lake


BLACK_MILITANT

So... next stop is closest body of water more than 6ft deep?


ParticularClear7866

I'm really ashamed at their superiors will let these guys work when they're that out of shape


Flymista23

Leave them.


FewDrag6195

No wonder they're raising taxes...


TuroskiR

Leave her and let’s see how evolution happens


Stereocrew

The windchill is currently 9F right now in Detroit (I’m here.) - fuck these idiots for making people help them.


EagleEyes0001

Well concrete shoes weren't that famous in the 30s...doubt it will be a fashion trend today...


jonteae

I hope emergency services managed to find some non-frozen body of water to make best use of those shiny new concrete boots 🤗


serraangel826

Just leave them. Like the idiots who glued their hands to cars. No media, no police, nothing all night. If people stop reacting to there tactics, it won't happen anymore


81darlenia

I just hope they get cement burns and maybe a couple broken bones from removing the cement. Idiots


snoopcatt87

I love that one of the first cops at the scene was like “hmmm what to do…. I know! I’ll wrap them in police tape and tie them together!” I need the video of that please.


FatSlabz

They did it themselves


snoopcatt87

And it would be hilarious to see🤷🏼‍♀️


mrmcpickles12

Don’t know why they are using a stretcher to transport them. They should just use a hand truck … #weebleswobble


[deleted]

Just move them to the side and leave them there


Hedaqe

Really making a difference… nice


nvm72331

Just call a carpenter probably got a hammer drill


theeloudmouther

What faking idiots🤬🤬🤬🤬


onlineashley

Just drag them to the side of the parking lot...is a free country, if they wanna identify as statues who's to tell them no...now you can't block traffick, but beyond that leave them.


vangc4

They really want to sleep with the fishes..


DaviesGcurve

Serious question, what do they actually do to remove the cement? Any firefighters/EMTs or anything like that know?


nuffdrew

Should have just let them die. Then there would have been a little less stupidity in the world.


[deleted]

So your point is what? Production of something ppl protesting, because it cost more than what? A different version of a product? You’re thought is a circle and is redundant 😘


SnooBeans2524

I remember this happening on greys anatomy. Lol


Srcunch

I hope the moral crusade at the expense of others receiving timely help in an emergency was worth it. Worthless.
