If it is an op (if), I wonder if the soup kids even realized it. Like how far down does the meta-op go? Where is the line between op and misplaced but sincere action?
My theory is the kids were persuaded to do it by higher ups. I have talked to someone who's roommate was in Red Guards and they said basically the "leaders" would make all the 18 year olds that just joined do their weird stunts. Also they would be shamed if they didn't do any praxis that day.
Hm I wonder what percent of "we're doing something broadly annoying and definitely unproductive to raise a w a r e n e s s" is an op like that
Seriously if you want to get attention to a cause, you can absolutely spend the time to think of something that is good and awesome, instead of whatever the fuck that shit was.
Seriously why attack some beloved cultural artifact when the CEO of Pollution parks his Tesla right fucking there
Yeah, and I think that even the people who want to do this kind of stuff earnestly, will somewhat quickly stop doing it if the resounding public consensus is "this person is a pro-corporate undercover cop"
I'm happy about the online reaction this time. Im seeing a lot of that sort of response
The group they are a part of is funded by an oil heiress. 100% an op

Ayyy gotta love cult tactics to coerce kids that have immature prefrontal cortexes to do stupid shit for the "cause".
So it's an op to make environmentalist look crazy.

I think the vast majority of it is probably an op
