      They knew full well that the glass was there, which is why they did it to that painting. What makes you think they’re morons???

      Hey, while we’re talking about it, why do we seem to care so much about a painting that wasn’t damaged, but we don’t seem to put nearly as much effort into hating on the people and companies that are actually destroying the world we live on?

        Because “we” is an idiot who doesn’t understand what they are talking about but want to appear as if they do.

          I’m genuinely trying to understand what information you’re using to come to the conclusion that they’re an idiot
