It hasn't made headlines though. Juststopoil goes after oil terminals, car manufacturers etc pretty often but it's never reported on. The only protest that gets attention is souping painting or spraying cornflour on rocks.

Hmm. I wonder why the media is more heavily reporting one type of vandalism over another?

Fwiw I saw news articles about the planes being vandalized before I saw this one about Stonehenge, so the headlines do exist. Everyone's news feeds are different though.

The headlines exist, but Stonehenge is what is generating the lasting discussion and will be the instance that most people in the world know about.

Yup, in another thread about the planes there's nothing but assholes griping about stonehenge.

Almost like defacing art is actually the more effective type of protest.
