michigan’s national guard and the repression of the 2020 uprising
"many people infected by the u.s. left’s racial, colonial, gendered, and [dis]ableist biases act as if national military forces are different from—specifically, not as bad as—police. ... but ... elites in the imperial core who believe their positions are seriously threatened call on those same troops when the cops aren’t enough."

"We will not stand by while the University of Michigan continues to support and help recruit people into the US military-industrial complex. We will not stand by while the state expands its capacity to brutally repress our communities by expanding Camp Grayling in Michigan and building Cop City in Atlanta." Via @unsalted

Over 100 Trees Spiked in Opposition to Camp Grayling
"Over the past 2 weeks more than 100 trees in and around the proposed camp grayling expansion area were spiked, namely forests managed by the grayling and gaylord department of natural resources. ... To avoid worker injury we insist that all trees in Crawford, otsega, Roscommon, and kalkaska be thoroughly checked for spikes before cutting."

CW: Stop Camp Grayling, Northern Michigan, USA
When the guests talk about how big Camp Grayling is, it’s huge. And the planned expansion would make it enormous.
When they talk about enbridge and the oil and gas presence, do an arial view of the expansive state forests. You’ll notice an interesting checker pattern. Those are countless pump stations. That’s what state-based natural “resource” holdings are for if you somehow thought they were merely public enjoyment or conservation—they are NOT. A way the state and private folks with sizable landholdings make money in the area is by selling their mineral rights which means property owners own what’s up top and the extractive corporations own what’s beneath. They give you money and you give them access. The entire region is full of people that took the devil’s bargain of accepting the kickback but also value nature as a resource for shooting, hunting, fishing, hunting, boating, ATVs, and the like.
Logging has historically decimated the wilderness there where clearcuts and select cuts continue to this day. City people may be there admiring what can feel like pristine big woods but upon closer inspection it’s heavily managed by the state and dominated by a few large corporations. As you drive the northern expressways and see the southbound logging trucks where do you think it’s going? Who sold it? Who pockets the money? Who incurs the consequences? So, there’s a tension with the locals. But if they still get their due they’ll take the few jobs, the income, lower costs to power their homes, and tolerate the state, DNR, tourists, and seasonal fair-weather snowbirds.
The year-round residents tend to be rural poor and the seasonal homes and vacation people tend to be hyper affluent city, suburb, and exurb dwellers.
The Grayling was a fish that’s numbers collapsed due to logging fucking up the waterways. It produces soot and debris that kills life. It’s pessimistically poetic, isn’t it?
It’s the place where hate groups can swarm and attack marginalized groups but if there’s the sound of breaking glass at a justice protest the Guard rushes in to push black people around.
Camp Grayling embodies everything that is terrible about the military industrial complex, corporations, environmental degradation, racism, and countless overlapping oppressions it will make your head spin.
