Spill a bunch of oil and kill hundreds of acres of land and animals? Woopsie daisies don’t worry nonprofits and gov may step in to fix that.
Stop a business from sending that oil? You son of a bitch.
This is really hard to read. The degree of criminalization, the coordination in intimidating activists… it’s bad, man.
It seems like Minnesota arrested almost the same number of nonviolent protesters against a pipeline in a few days as the DOJ has arrested for storming the capital on Jan 6. The sense of misguided priorities is really alarming.
America is a fascist oil empire and must be destroyed. It’s the only way to stop big oil
Land of the free, my ass! You’re only as free as the politicians and cops you can afford to buy 🤬
I know and what is even more ridiculous than what I am doing now is to be honest with you and I will be there for you and I will be in your prayers.
@silence7 reminds me of the final speech in the film I just saw: How To Blow Up a Pipeline.
Kudos to the filmmakers for messaging throughout the film that these activists are not terrorists and are trying to *stop* the massive harm of fossil extraction. The main characters live near refineries, frack sites, and pipelines that are killing people. Lifts the reality that our most marginalized kin are the ones living with the most (human-made) toxic environments.
