Once again I feel like a weirdo. I’ve gotten permits to screen eroded sediment, push an uprooted tree back into the hole, to stop an archae site from being a campsite, to delineate a site for better preservation,…but not to alter or damage a site, or to dig it up to “mitigate” through data recovery.

I also remember that pre-9/11 the Bush-Cheney administration was already trying to replace the red scare with a green scare, laying the groundwork for redefining environmental activists as terrorists. Then of course 9/11 happened and they had an actual enemy

The regime says the guy who shot Guard troops was “radicalized” in Washington and “antifa” is a “terrorist organization.” This time they’re gonna come here in force with live ammo

I’m already sick of the smug “there is no ‘domestic terror’ designation under US law.”
