The Spin

Establishment-critical narrative

Last Generation's tactics are provocative because the group's protests work to bring attention to the climate crisis, and to stir friction to create debate around climate change. Unfortunately, the German government is not taking climate change seriously enough. If there are any criminals in this situation, they are the corporations and lawmakers who continue to invest in fossil fuel infrastructure and threaten the planet.

Pro-establishment narrative

Last Generation is a group of climate terrorists whose disruptive and destructive protests must stop. The boundaries of legitimate protest are being crossed into criminal behavior. The group's actions are not just criminal, they are counterproductive. No reasonable person would use these tactics; they are dissuading the public from supporting their cause.
