    I mean if removing people from the equation is on the table then targeting billionaires with a carbon footprint of small nations would be the logical place to start.

    That aside, this meme is calling for collective violent action against infrastructure. Your example is an individual violent action against a person.

        Does self-defense count as violence? Because forcefully dismantling the oil infrastructure can save lives and it would be nonviolent as long as the police don’t start with their violence.

          Killing someone who will blow up oil pipes counts as saving lives too. Without oil people starve and hundreds of millions will die. It’s a matter of perspective.

          Violence is wrong. Period.
