But what if we had a little violence and vandalism as a treat?
Then you provide the enemy with ammunition.
They claim that the purpose of the cameras is to prevent crime, and that the people who oppose them are violent extremists. They've even tried to label deflock.me as a terrorist organization.
Don't provide the enemy with ammunition.
To be realistic, they don't need ammunition. They just make it up anyways. It's not about being civil and cordial anymore. Points have to be made.
"Not giving them ammunition" means getting ignored. We can't afford to be ignored anymore. Shit is urgent. The Epstein class needs to be afraid or we wait until they build the technology and infrastructure that allows them to completely ignore our needs/demands forever.
Especially when the right is also mad about the tech. Strike while the iron is hot. Now is the time to act, not just have discussions. And I don't mean violence, but let them know that card is on the table otherwise we the people will continue being ignored.
Always bothers me when people act like there is zero political violence. They are shooting us in the fucking street on film. Shits over.
Also your username is fuckin wild lol
