"Locking on" is the new trend among eco-activists of the world. This involves individuals with a strong desire to do something that they believe will make them seem important and better than you are, to glue themselves to a work of art, museum walls, or floors in order to draw attention to what they believe is a "climate crisis."
It's unclear how this helps their cause and if anything, apparently hurts it due to the level of pissed-off it makes normal people become. This trend is has become global, at least in the West, where the government will not behead or otherwise kill you for this virtue signaling nonsense.
A young guy in Germany belonging to an environmental activism group Letzte [last] Generation, was pissed-off over emissions from the transport sector. The activists say that emissions are “persistently high and contribute to the destruction of our civilization,” even though he and his group have not actually measured the emissions. But so what--he and his fellow clean air warriors blocked traffic on a busy street in Mainz last week.
The translation from the German reads: “In #Mainz the traffic was stopped. Emissions from the transport sector are persistently high and contribute to the destruction of our civilization. We continue and call on all fellow human beings to join us! Together we can move politics to action!”
They failed to explain how blocking traffic and making people aware of how they feel about it can effect positive change, but that isn't the point. See, the point is that they are righteous ones and you planet polluters, with all your fancy cars and jobs and things, really suck.
So one of the learned geniuses of the group used a mixture of sand and superglue and glued the hand, he doesn't use to touch himself, to the pavement.
As it turned out, The Daily Mail reported that city police initially tried to dissolve the glue. But they don't call it superglue for nothing. Their attempts to free the inactivist didn't work so they tried power tools.
The police eventually removed a section of the pavement upon which this moron's hand was glued and this ended the "What Should I Do" demo as the idiot had the concrete stuck to his hand. It looks as if it might stay that way for a while.
Eventually he pulls out a handkerchief and blows his nose and realizes how foolish he looks.
