The prehistoric megalithic structure in England has been targeted by activists spraying orange powder paint, social media footage showed.

Environmental protesters sprayed paint on Stonehenge on Wednesday, with footage showing an orange powder covering some of the stones.

Two protesters dressed in white were seen running towards two of the megaliths, spraying paint, as another person attempted to stop them, in footage released by Just Stop Oil, an environmental activist group focused on the issue of human-caused climate change.

I would disagree. Like Greta Thunberg , did it right. peaceful protest and didn't vandalize.

She spoke in front the of UN. These guys are doing it wrong.

And there are thousands of people that express their hatred for her and the movement she stamds for, even threatening to rape and kill her.

In Germany there are regular street blockades and Airport disruptions and the average response to these things was people wanting to run them over with their cars.

There will always be haters, but I'm not sure what point your bringing up?

I'm just saying there are more peaceful way to do things like this, without vandalizing.
