And this is why graffiti is not bad. If companies get to alter public spaces with their ads to make money, then people should be able to alter public spaces for artistic reasons.

even if it's not for artistic reasons... put up graffiti to cover the company garbage. if rather look as pickled sphincters on a wall, then some bullshit lies from some corrupt corporation whose CEO should be jailed for life
Here is a link to an article with a picture so you don't have to watch a video.
That pisses me off fuck the world cup.
I hope it gets graffitied
With a whale
Whale dongs seem particularly appropriate at this particular juncture.
Then those dorks will learn!
I wouldn’t go that far. But it’s a start.
Sorry, I was just having fun with the folk etymology of dork, which isn’t actually specific to whale penises
oh I chuckled at the dork. I'm just saying, it might take a few times for them to learn.
(and suddenly over night a new form of protest art...)
Think of the poor corporations, there are so few places to advertise on!
I mean in a downtown core, where else do you advertise? Billboards? Other walls? Street signs? Busses? Storefronts? Paint on the street itself?
What alternatives did they have? You couldn't expect them to just put a temporary tarp over it or something, come on, that would have cost slightly more money!
What they're supposed to be content with just those few thousand options?
What a sad dystopian thing, to decide that a mural that's brought joy is somehow less important than your temporary ad, and worse than that, that there were so many other places it could have gone that wouldn't have destroyed a piece of art.
