“Free every forest defender”
This will not happen unless the government believes forest defense no longer poses a threat to its power. If that happens, you’re probably doing something wrong.
“Drop every charge”
See above.
“Cancel the Cop City project”
Cop City is everywhere. If Atlanta cancels, that’s just the beginning, not the end. Not only are there Cop City projects being proposed worldwide there are many that already exist. End all of them.
“Reverse the land swap”
You mean reverse the land swap between the U.S.A. and every indigenous people they have expropriated. Right?
“Protect & restore the Weelaunee Forest”
They’re not gonna do that. Liberals want to frame what’s happening as a “Constitutional crisis facing Atlanta-area government” because this does not challenge the legitimacy of the 250-year old piece of toilet paper known as the U.S. Constitution or the local government of a slave state. If the movement had allowed itself to be dominated by liberals from the beginning, construction of Cop City would have progressed much further than it has so far. Don’t let them stamp out the guiding flames. Combat liberalism within your milieu and yourself; sharpen your critique and sharpen your knives, because the struggle will go on, with or without us. Kill the counterinsurgency operation in your head.
