If environmental protest movements behaved like the farming unions, governments across Europe would have banned them by now as "terrorist organisations" or "organised crime". The double standards in the application of the law are simply gobsmacking.

XR should bring along a toy tractor as camouflage.

True!

There is no justice in America (AlterNet)

Last week, I wrote about why Joe Biden and the Democrats are going to demolish the traitor, Donald Trump, and his morally busted, anti-American party of cow...

Interesting to see in this thread how many environmentalists hate farmers Something you encourage in this post George Monbiot Environmentalism should be recruiting farmers not alienating them We need to eat, so farmers will always be custodians of the land A good chunk of it anyway Instead….

Sadly enough, this is already the case in France: quillette.com/2023/04/12/t...

The Battle of Sainte-Soline

The events at Sainte-Soline have received less attention from the international media than the pension-reform protests, but they are arguably more consequential.

It's because farming unions probably rig politics against anything that would hinder them. Once you get to the point where you can buy or threathen senators is when the "double standards" arise.

The farmers were burning tyres, releasing emissions. Then they'll whinge when there are floods and drought.

Everyone should have an equal right to peaceful protest. Peaceful protest, in my view, does not extend to arson.

Exactly. In Germany, them agro terrorists blocked access to hospitals & roads. Means, that paramedics couldn't get through and people not to hospitals. Consequences? Pfff! But if Last Generation blocked roads shortly (leaving space for paramedics), they got attacked. *NO* solidarity to farmers.
