i don’t mind traffic jams, it’s stuff like medical emergencies being stuck in traffic, people driving freeway speeds and then coming across stopped traffic, activists getting run over by chuds… that sort of thing….
but, traffic news has a broad market, and it pisses people off enough to go viral… i dunno, it’s effective….
i liked how blm in portland kept finding dumpsters and lighting them on fire in the middle of the street… made for great pictures….
but, every time a fire started, the cops switched to ultra-violent mode and a lot of people got seriously hurt… fire was always their legal justification….
The system thrives on fear—fear of disruption, fear of unity, fear of people refusing to play by its rules. Blocking freeways isn’t the problem; it’s a mirror held up to a society that values convenience over justice. If ambulances can’t move, that’s not on the protesters—it’s on a government that built a house of cards where one roadblock collapses everything.
But you’re right: fire is their favorite excuse. It’s not the flames they fear; it’s the spark in people’s minds. Every crackdown is their attempt to extinguish that spark before it spreads. The challenge isn’t just to disrupt but to outmaneuver their narratives.
Keep pissing them off, but don’t hand them the script they’re desperate to use against us.

The protests almost always made sure emergency vehicles made it through without delay.
not when blocking a freeway
