today, as fires spread and rocks flew, some rats scurried among the brave…
“journalists”, or whatever those professional snitches call themselves, recorded photos and videos of forest defenders from positions within and around the crowd. with their fancy lenses and closeup angles, this footage reveals a much higher level of detail than APD’s own camera towers, and will inevitably become a tool of the coming police investigations.
we smash security cameras without a second thought. the ones that happen to have two legs should be treated no differently.
providing evidence to the police is incidental to the journalist’s main job: reducing us to a picture and a few sentences, turning our attacks into caricatures stripped of all context, more “content” to sell ads and lies.
today some journalists in the woods were confronted with threats, but this is not enough. defend the forest means defend each other. fight back. smash cameras.
