    Then what are the two evils you’re referring to, and which action are you referring to with picking the lesser evil?

      They are climate activists so I imagine climate change is one of the two evils. The other one is potentially upsetting the lichens and people’s feelings.

      You might not agree with their decision, but I don’t find it irrational.

        Right, that’s what I thought you were referring to, and responded to. Ruining stonehenge versus the climate. Or vandalism generally versus the climate.

        We’re not picking between these things. They’re independent variables.

          Disturbing the lichens on stonehenge vs generating awareness is clearly connected, since it grabbed our attention without millions of euros of advertising.
