If you have to resort to naked people to draw attention to your message, it isn't a meaningful message. Simply by doing this they are pretty-well signaling they are out of good ideas and have "jumped the shark" as the entertainment saying goes. In fact, that's about all the GW zealots are good for anymore, a good laugh at how far they will go, how hard they will try to convince people of their own factually-bankrupt ideas.

Art is a very poor substitute for science. Why not sacrifice some chickens while you’re at it?

Evidently this event occurred after he had a “meaningful” event with the Blarney Stone in Ireland.

People taking their clothes off calling it art is a very poor substitute for art. :-)

No one cares about people taking their clothes off enmasse for whatever. It has been overdone so much.

ThunderSleeps, you're 100% correct.
These people are weird and they're looking for an excuse to get naked in public anyway.
They would have eagerly removed all their clothes for a Dihydrogen Monoxide protest, if given the opportunity.

If there were 100,000 nudie leftist idiots in a field, and they all broke wind at the the same time, would that push the earth out of its orbit? We're doomed, doomed, I tell ya!

Let's see them try that in the dead of winter - then maybe their little stunt will have some meaning.

I do that every day, but I call it a shower.

I don’t know, but the surrounding vegetation might wither, and animals from miles around would go running from the horrendous of such an odorific event.

It’s France. Since they only shower about twice a month it probably wouldn’t make much of a difference.

Yep, they're that moonbat crazy!
The topic is of minimal importance to them. They just wish to ditch their clothing.
