A yearning for the idyllic forest scene and cellulose factories
When they want to ‘get away from it all’ and ‘go for a drive’ through nature, the idyllic forest scene, they are in denial that the romantic craving for the bush turns out to be industrial plantations.

Starting in the 1640s, the #Rappahannock tribe’s land was taken by English settlers who turned much of it into #plantations.

Un appel contre #Bolloré : « Bloquons ses plateaux télés, occupons ses dépôts pétroliers, soutenons les luttes syndicales à l’intérieur de ses entreprises et médias, vendangeons ses vignes, redistribuons son fuel domestique à celleux qui galèrent à se chauffer, traquons le traceur, tissons des alliances internationales, organisons des boycotts, virons ses chaînes de la TNT et soutenons la création et l’assise de contre-pouvoirs médiatiques puissants ! »
