No mention of what they’re protesting but hopefully this isn’t some sort of attempt to repeat the literal shit-show from last year.

Edit: apparently it’s people gluing themselves to roads to promote trains. https://www.newstalkzb.co.nz/news/national/traffic-disruption-warning-by-police-ahead-of-restore-passenger-rail-protest/

Rude much? I didn't say anything at all about what you should do, I only said what their goal was. Way to be an asshole about it, dickhead.

annoy people like you until you stop driving and start taking the train.

This isn't saying anything about what I should do? And what do you mean by "people like me", anyway? You get back what you give out, sunshine.

Don't make assumptions about me, you know nothing about my like.

The goal is

But you ignored that part. As well as everything else I had written.

You're the one making assumptions here. Or you're being deliberately obtuse just to pick a fight on the internet. Either way, fuck you for being nasty to me when all I was trying to do was talk about the subject of the thread.

Just remember, there's a large chunk of people who need to drive, for various reasons, and your assumption that everyone is driving because it's easier for them isn't really helpful.
