    earthfirstjournal.news/2025/08

    by Unicorn Riot Atlanta, GA – Jamie Marsicano, one of dozens of defendants embroiled in the sprawling legal backlash brought against opponents of “Cop City,” had a state-level Domestic Terrorism charge dropped in DeKalb County on Thursday. The dismissal represents the latest […]

  2. The cops stripped a woman naked and dragged a man by his hair and those weren't even the people the cops arrested for this alleged arson.

    The media covers this story by first asking Atlanta protesters to condemn the alleged act of arson.

    Maan Black folks have been mad patient with this country, damn.

  3. Wir haben 2023 aber auch gesehen, wie sich trotz und wegen aller Umstände, schwerer Rückschläge, Widrigkeiten usw., Menschen weiter erheben , kämpfen, einander helfen und unterstützen.

    Seien es die #Zapatistas, die sich neu organisieren müssen oder die Menschen in #Rojava, die weiter kämpfen; Seien es die Menschen, die während sie sich selbst immer größerer Repression ausgesetzt sehen, sich für Menschen auf der Flucht, in Kriegen und in anderen Notlagen einsetzen. Und Menschen, die sich selbst dafür in Notlagen begeben müssen.

    Seien es die Menschen, die sich gegen Herrschaft und Repression engagieren, dafür Argumente und Ideen bereitstellen, große Treffen und kleine gegenseitige Hilfen gemeinsam organisieren. Und auch die Menschen, die dafür Wälder, Häuser oder Druckereien besetzen.

    Und auch Alle, die über ihre eigenen Schatten springen können, die ihre eigenen Ängste bezwingen wollen, die repressive gesellschaftliche Konventionen überwinden und die inneren und äußeren Autoritäten herausfordern möchten.

    Deshalb soll das ganze hier auch kein Rückblick sein. Sondern ein Dank und eine Erinnerung daran, dass es sich lohnt, weiter zu machen.

    "No matter how the case is resolved, nothing will bring Manuel back…For me, justice would be for people to follow Manuel’s example—their love for the earth, for their friends, for forgotten people."

    let’s get the terminology straight: Georgia Cops are the domestic terrorists, not the #AtlantaForest protectors. #StopCopCity #FreeVictorPuertas

  6. Very happy to see Cato’s @cob & @PGEddington give a fair overview of why libertarians should care about #CopCity, #AtlantaForest protests, & the murder of Manuel “Tortuguita” Terán.
    Tort (they/them) is misgendered during the convo, but I don’t believe it’s done intentionally.

  7. "What’s indisputable is that police repression has extended into all corners of this movement, amounting to a profoundly undemocratic exertion of state power. From the outset, the voices of the people have been marginalized and subsumed under deference to Atlanta’s police state.

    As in the days of brutal repression of the civil rights movement, so too are the levers of state power aligned against the Stop Cop City movement. But there are also reasons for hope. Despite the best efforts of Atlanta authorities to contain the movement, to smear those standing in solidarity as outside agitators, this movement is both intersectional and multilocational.

    Beyond the week of action, the battle to stop Cop City continues, in forms ranging from sabotage to legal battles over environmental permitting minutiae. Only time will tell how this movement resolves — whether it succumbs to police repression or whether Cop City will indeed never be built. But it’s been a hell of a fight so far, with the full force of state power brought against the protesters that dare to defy it."

  8. "The incident reports reveal that officers were first to discharge a weapon – they fired a pepperball gun into Paez Terán’s tent...It also reveals that, while they rendered medical assistance to an injured officer, they did not immediately do the same for Paez Terán."

  9. "With the end of the Food Autonomy Festival came the end, too, of 10 days of mass mobilization in the forest. As the movement grows and mobilizes new kinds of engagement, more possibilities open up for the Weelaunee Forest and those who choose to protect it. Alongside the student organizations, faith leaders, and Black-led organizations catalyzed by the movement, an assortment of farmers and botanists across the continent now have multiple-year investments planted in the forest along with a combative vision to foster them.

    Two years into the movement to Stop Cop City, the Atlanta Police Foundation’s vision of a future wrought with violence and ecological destruction continues to be challenged. People from disparate backgrounds have come together to halt the destruction of the forest utilizing a myriad of different tactics, but all contributing to the creation of a free Weelaunee Forest."

  10. I have friends in the #AtlantaForest acting to #StopCopCity. They've asked for whatever support you can offer as actions ramp up this week: joining them in Atlanta, donating to jail support and collective funds, calling policymakers and corporate entities to end their support, spreading the word...

  11. BROOKLYN, USA: ATAK NA SAMOCHODY DOSTAWCZE AMAZON W ZEMŚCIE ZA ATLANTA FOREST

    "Kapitalizm zabija obecnie wszelkie życie na planecie, a to chore społeczeństwo ogłasza takich potworów jak Elon Musk naszymi zbawcami. Bezwzględnie odrzucamy tę godną pożałowania wizję przyszłości i nie dbamy o osobiste reperkusje. Tak jak Tortuguita, będziemy stawiać na szali nasze życie i oddamy je, jeśli będzie to konieczne, aby zapewnić kontynuację życia. Ale nie życie dla samego życia. Zdajemy sobie sprawę, że tylko poprzez rewolucję możemy osiągnąć sukces w zniszczeniu kapitalizmu, a bez całkowitego unicestwienia kapitalizmu katastrofa klimatyczna jest praktycznie nieunikniona."

  12. "The state and ruling class are trying to create the impression that they are beating our movement. In fact, they are running out of options, falling back on ever harsher methods of coercion and ever more transparent ploys for consent. If this line of effort fails, their only choice will be to double-down on repression and trigger a bigger political crisis – or to retreat."

  13. Cops lie, NEVER take their press releases and statements as facts. Don’t forget that the police insisted they weren’t wearing body cameras. Just seconds after the police opened fire and murdered Tortugita, a forest defender, an Atlanta Police officer can be heard saying “Man...you fucked your own officer up” referring to the state trooper that was also shot. #StopCopCity #AtlantaForest #DefendAtlantaForest

  14. OAKLAND, USA: ZEMSTA ZA TORTUGUITA!

    "W nocy 20 stycznia 2023 roku 30 pogrążonych w żałobie osób anarchistycznych podjęło mściwe działania przeciwko naszym wrogom za zamordowanie Cami/Tortuguity w Atlanta Forest dwa dni wcześniej. Potłukłyśmy dziesiątki okien wzdłuż szklanej fasady budynku Bank of America w centrum Oakland, zniszczyłyśmy bankomaty i pomalowałyśmy ściany wiadomościami ludzi o miłości, pamięci, solidarności i wściekłości na zabójstwo naszego towarzysza, zanim podpaliłyśmy to miejsce koktajlami mołotowa."
