I love Monet’s paintings. Make them pay for the restoration.

The way to handle cretins like this (aside from prosecution), is mockery.
Go on their social media, and write…
”Nice try, but that’s only a 6.7 out of 10. First of all. The split pea soup has a high carbon footprint. It TOTALLY negates your cause. Second, split pea compliments the Monet, and further detracts from your message. Third, you are just standing there, and not really committed to the cause. Parenthetically, your shirts are bush league.
”In contrast, the guy who set himself aflame in NYC a few years ago, now THAT was a 10 performance. I mean, he’s dead now. But his carbon footprint is nil; these are the tough choices your lot has to make.
”I really need you to go back and think long and hard about your commitment to the cause. Otherwise, you’re just white noise.”

“Why don’t they ever do this to modern art?”
Because a lot of modern art ALREADY looks like somebody puked on it

Why did the art thief’s van run out of gas as he drove away from the museum?
Because he had no Monet to buy Degas to make the Van Gogh ;)

Of course, those morons are messing with the CO2 in the poor climate. Making those t-shirts isn’t ruining the climate. Think of the energy used in making that canned soup and they just wasted it. A shame they probably drove in a fossil fueled vehicle to the store to buy the soup, to another store to buy the shirts and paint and drove to the museum. Now, the museum will have to order some special chemical cleaner and the shipping/delivery will use even more fossil fuel. Then there’s all the reporters driving around to get pictures and interviews.

Their shirts translate to “food repost” so either that doesn’t translate well or it is just stupid. I’m going with stupid.
