Powerful: Loggers Carved 'How Dare You' Into The Forest While Cutting Down Trees For Time Magazine's Person Of The Year Issue



Quote
Unfortunately, they cut down way more trees than needed for Time's waning readership. But it was worth it to send this powerful message to the patriarchy, white supremacists, Donald Trump, and capitalists. Oh, yeah, and to communicate the climate change thing.

A long time ago the author Philip Wylie remarked that "I used to read Time magazine to keep up with the news.  Now I read it to keep up with the biases."

Wylie died in 1971, so it's been a while.
WHATEVER YOUR DEFINITION OF "INFRINGE " IS, YOU SHOULDN'T BE DOING IT.

Cue the Mark Twain quote about the news.

She joins the ranks of Hitler, Stalin (twice), The Ayatollah Khomeini, and, this one should ruffle a few SJW feathers, Trump
