I just learned about the Tyre Extinguishers. They use lentils to depress the pin on the valve cap of an SUV's tyre, so that the tyre deflates without getting damaged. It's super effective and it's not a crime. They are called the Tyre Extinguishers.
I thought this was gonna be a post about how to extinguish a tire that's on fire, then I read further..
Your movement is about damaging other people's property, and although I would never do such a thing, don't be surprised if you get extinguished with a crowbar..
Be better than that, don't touch other people's stuff.
Nope. Don't do that. Not only are you tampering with someone else's property, it can be dangerous. Also changing people's minds with force never works.
I mean sure, killing people by deflating their tires slowly such that the tires pop on the highway is one way to reach your goals, but not very ethical either. And btw, it does damage the tires.
This won’t have any meaningful impact on the culture and industry that upholds cars as the only viable method of travel. What it will do is measurable damage - either monetarily or physically - to people who are not your enemy, and will alienate much larger swathes of people from ever sympathizing with the movement to free us from the tyranny of cars.
