Der Versuch der Kriminalisierung von #LetzteGeneration #XR oder #FFF folgt (unbewusst) dem Drehbuch von Firmen in den USA, die vor Jahren in den USA von Ex-Militärangehörigen gegründet wurden. Eine dieser Firmen nennt sich #TigerSwan.

1/n
Ziel dieser Firmen ist es, im Auftrag der Fossilindustrie Klimaaktivisten zu beobachten, zu infiltrieren, zu diskreditieren und zu kriminalisieren. Es werden Organsations- und Personenprofile erstellt. #StandingRock #350org documentcloud.org/documents/2377…

2/n
Darüber hinaus wird versucht, in die Politik hinein zu lobbyieren + Informationen auszutauschen. Ziel ist es, die Gesetzgebung dahingehend zu beeinflussen, dass fossile Infrastruktur als kritische Infrastruktur deklariert wird, um einen größeren Handlungshebel zu entwickeln.

.@VanityFair's new Ezra Miller piece by @juliewmiller is absolutely WILD and incredibly disturbing. "Ezra Miller’s “Messiah” Delusions: Inside The Flash Star’s Dark Spiral" - 🧵on some of the wildest revelations: cc. @wbd vanityfair.com/hollywood/2022…
In some ways, it seems like Ezra Miller's "Messiah complex" is attached to the character they play. During an arrest, they (Miller is NB) want the police to give particular care to a Flash superhero ring, saying, "The Flash ring means a lot to me...it's very valuable."
"Since 2020, [Ezra Miller] has been accused of crimes and abuses spanning 6,000 miles and two oceans: throwing a chair that hit a woman in the forehead, threatening a couple in their bedroom...choking two strangers in Iceland; and breaking into a neighbor's home in Vermont..."

5 years ago TODAY, hundreds of militarized police descended on a small camp of Indigenous water protectors that stood directly in the path of the Dakota Access Pipeline. The officers forcibly evicted residents and arrested 142 people. Medics and journalists were also arrested.
This violent confrontation between law enforcement and the water protectors showed in glaring detail the COORDINATION between federal, local, state police & private security in suppressing protest.

It's important to remember WHY people were protesting.
This pipeline, like so many other pipelines, cut through land the pipeline company didn't have the authority to claim. Treaties were (as they've always been) completely ignored. In this case, the 1868 Treaty of Fort Laramie.

1/ I have a degree in Astrophysics and two degrees in physics. I am Indigenous and Chicana. As an indigenous scientist absolutely in love with space and our ways of studying it, it has been very difficult watching what is happening to #MaunaKea and #TMTShutdown #ProtectMaunaKea
2/ Indigenous scientists walk in many worlds and understand the challenges of bringing our culture with us into colonial structured spaces. Our people have always been scientists. Our people have always studied the stars. This is not science vs culture. #ProtectMaunaKea
3/ our sacred spaces should hold just as much value as the Vatican or the Western Wall. It would never even be a question to think of desecrating that space in the pursuit of science and yet Hawaiian elders are forced to put their bodies in the path of trucks to #ProtectMaunaKea

#VoterSuppression
Say you live on #StandingRock on the ND side. You have kids, a job, you're a busy, functional, modern day Native American — but where you live doesn't have a street address, & you've never needed one as you have PO box.

Now, North Dakota says you can't vote.
But surely, you think, there's a way around it, right? There is. You first have to call your district's coordinator (but remember, not all districts are the same). You may have to call around. You finally get ahold of someone. You describe, in detail, where your house is.
The coordinator assigns you an address that you can use on your voter registration. But they need to give you a confirmation letter for the address (we don't know if they mail it or give it to you right away, that is unclear). You then can use the address on your documents.
