Those are poor examples of property damage to affect change. Why would an environmentalist destroy an electric vehicle station? And someone responding with violence to being mis-label is just an asshole, violence or property damage is only effective if directed at those that can affect change.
Now someone who cuts the charging cord at a Tesla station in protest to Elon’s hold on our collective information (DOGE), or someone slashing the tires of a vehicle belonging to ICE, now we’re talking.
I don’t think property damage is or should be the answer to just any societal ill, but I absolutely support it when they’ve taken away other reasonable forms of redress. Flock fits that bill, as does ICE, etc.
I agree with you on your final point, specifically about Flock. Which is why I would never say that property damage isn’t he answer.
