Pierre Huyghebaert<p>"Yesterday, we told the CEO of <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/ExxonMobil" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ExxonMobil</span></a> to 'eat shit.' We didn't do so lightly. <a href="https://post.lurk.org/tags/DarrenWoods" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DarrenWoods</span></a> makes $20 million a year as his already leviathan oil company increases production quarter on quarter, robbing the world of countless lives and ecosystems.

We shut down the whole event, the whole room fled, and we held the stage so long that they turned out the lights. No awards were awarded.<br>Yeah, people like Darren are the scum of the Earth and we aren't afraid to say so. It's 2023.
