Interesting counterpoint

If you think climate change justifies the violation of human rights, be honest with yourself about why promote the climate hysteria. Aaaaaand GFY.

Long live the Bladerunners

The UK gov solution for that is to ban portable electric saws.

This cracked me up because #true

Not all heroes wear capes

Thought he wants to place a sticker.

Sats verdient!

wtf is this? This is not the way to fight back.

That is not heroic. That is anarchy

What would your propose? Requesting that the government stops spying on everyone?

This is absolutely one of the ways to fight back. Gov does what it wants, so we'll do what we have to. To anyone who thinks this doesn't work.... they haven't replaced a bunch of cameras around my area because they kept taking them down by the next day.

Matt Hardy documenting. Legend and a patriot.

While the screenshot isn't true (most ULEZ cameras are still up), climate change is as much of a scam as scams can be. You don't fix the weather with more taxes and surveillance.

Time to acquaint yourself with the meaning of "anarchy." It appears you've been misled.

I think you could do this in a way that attracts a lot less attention Hi-vis vest, ladder, bit of coarse sandpaper

Maybe finish the job and cut the wire to the camera first, before going up to it to declare victory!

I had the same thought

🎯 I didn’t vote for this. How would voting possibly eliminate it? 🍻👊🏻🧡

Mother Nature doesn’t give a shot about your rights.

The first thing I saw when I went to your profile was this : Looks like you have some trouble with that moral compass thing.

Oceans 14?

Nobody is trying to fix the weather with taxes. That's a pathetic straw man argument. Take that retarded shit back to Twitter, this is nostr not twitter

Resource extractors are disregarded human rights, people who want to reduce pollution that corporations are allowed to poison us with are trying to protect our right to clean air and clean water

Taxes are used as means of addressing the so called causes of 'climate change'. That's not a straw man, that's their policy. I noticed you ignored my point about surveillance. Installing cameras that monitor every passing vehicle and charge them per day to 'reduce emissions' when people are on the road out of necessity, is well within the scope of 'taxing to fix the climate'. Where's the straw man exactly?

I'm a cyclist (no license, no car) and I'm not convinced that climate change as it is being sold is real. Conflating the believe in it with being anti cyclists/people walking doesn't provide any value to any debate and just furthers the division. If I was you, I'd reconsider this approach.

*belief

That's a problem of corruption and democracies being unable to hold corporations accountable. The same democracies that think surveilling the civilian population is acceptable. Those corporations and the fake democracies are on one side ; the people are on the other side.

Did you even listen to the comedians joke?

Is it funny? I might now.

I found it hilarious, without a reflection of my moral character. It doesn’t make want to go cheat with a hooker. This guy is married, and incredibly loyal. Just an anecdotal joke. Take what you will from it. Wasn’t intended to offend anyone.

Alright. I made an assumption. Shouldn't have, and I apologize. So now I gotta ask - do you really think some supposedly impending disaster is justification for violating people's rights?

No I do not on a personal level, but I was just saying that Mother Nature doesn’t care. She won’t hesitate to wipe us out with disease and destruction. We don’t own this planet and any planet. They own us. I will say accordingly to extinction theory; if we are the cause of the 6th great extinction, our own extinction, we might deserve it.

Then we can agree on a lot. I just think the state is a far bigger threat to both humanity and earth. Without states and their corruption, most things which harm the environment would have been solved long ago or never been avproblem to begin with. Two examples : oil and farming. If you want cleaner cars, then stop subsidizing oil and car companies - that only pays them **_not to_** innovate. In the US, we even had several decades of legal action specifically to shut down more efficient cars. If the state had simply not violated peoples' rights, there would be nothing to mandate and "fix." Farming is another absurd scapegoat, especially the livestock and monocultures. The way people farmed before industrialization was fine - possibly even good for the earth. Lyndon Johnson - an american president - literally told farmers to "get big or die" - which meant buy the seeds the government wanted, incorporate and play the financing game, plant monoculture, fertilize and spray, and all the rest. Our government then offered subsidized loans (less interest at taxpayers expense) only for farmers who planted specific monoculture crops, and then made that GMO shit when that came around. The whole thing is just corruption. And they'll say all kinds if stupid bullshit that amounts to, "look over there!" to keep people all worked up over the wrong things and never addressing the real problem - which is the government. Basically they create problems, including pollution, by being so corrupt, then use the crisis they created to give themselves more power. And more power comes at the expense of people's rights.

The UK doesn't want to ban saws, just make saw blades blunt - so they are "safer"!

thought for sure this guy was about to get himself a catalytic converter!

I've seen videos of dudes using what look like small electric angle grinders to clear entire intersections at once

they cut the whole poles or sometimes just the camera arm or cables

Thermal lasers and UV lasers will damage cameras.

Likewise never underestimate the human desire for freedom. The bureacRATS are sniveling terrified thieves

Indeed

From what I've gathered it's neither completely true or false. Many cameras have been disabled, but not enough to make the whole country change course on the issue (yet) What I do like is that the response to this post on nostr was positive. I probably got more reactions to this than anything I've ever posted. Individuals and small groups can have a huge impact on world events. It's up to each of us to set the example we wish to see.

Again, respect.

Barely made a dent on the UK. Still one of the most surveillance states there is.

Thanks for the thorough rundown. Through several responses I realized the original message was overstated, but it's not beyond reach. The existence of tyranny relies on good men doing nothing to stop it.
