A radical environmental group raised a few eyebrows on Twitter after encouraging people to let the tires out of SUVs in an apparent bid to combat climate change.

The group, Adbusters, tweeted step-by-step instructions for the provocation on Wednesday, calling it a "gentle escalation" or ramping up the urgency about climate change.

"Wedge gravel in the tire valves, leaflet the SUV to let them know the tires are flat and why it was done, and walk away. It’s that simple," the group tweeted. "If we organize, we can hit enough SUVs in particular neighborhoods to spark reporting and spread the metameme."

A tire iron across the skull would be a good remedy for this.

They should target the private jets that all their wealthy, hypocrite donors fly.

This will all be allowed, they are just dumb libs following marching orders.

Nothing like diplomacy to convince someone you’re right and make them want to join you.

My SUV is highly skilled and trained to murder any environmental activists that touches it.

good reason for an onboard camera system - ruining a tire and wheel could cost well over $1000

Still environmental terrorism. But it seems cars might be useless anyway if Biden gets his way and gas is $100 a gallon.

Yep, I was just thinking along those lines. Will these SUV owners, upon discovering their day’s activities are having to change due to this, going to think to themselves, gee, I really should think about global warming and the impact of my SUV on the environment? Will they become born again environmentalists due to discovering their flat tires?

I guess climate activists like this don’t believe in science.

Otherwise, they’d believe that mankind and other life on the planet would evolve to survive as the climate conditions change.

Of course not, but how long before they start torching SUV's?

They believe that we need to be educated, by Greta Thunberg, Al Gore, Leonardo DiCaprio and other enlightened souls, to teach us to change our ways.
