“Last Friday in Oklahoma City, Stefan Warner and Moriah Stephenson walked through the front door of Devon Tower, the headquarters of Devon Energy. The energy giant has plans to increase fracking, and its CEO is on the board of TransCanada, the corporation behind the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline. The activists walked to the second floor balcony of the atrium, and dropped a Hunger Games-inspired banner over the railing. It said, “The odds are never in our favor,” and featured the series’ logo—a mockingjay carrying a monkeywrench.
As the banner unfurled, some glitter fell to the ground. The whole thing was pretty boring, as far as protests like this go and when security guards asked them to leave, they did—Stefan had no desire to get arrested, plus Moriah had to finish her grad-school homework.
“I could have swept it up in two minutes if they gave me a broom,” Stefan said. As they were leaving, he apologized to the cleaning lady. She smiled at him and said it’s ok.”* Cenk Uygur, Ben Mankiewicz, Ana Kasparian and Jimmy Dore break it down on The Young Turks.
