i think about this a lot. anyone who tries to argue that “cleaning” or sweeping encampments isnt an act of police/state violence must lack any sense of humanity. to re-traumatize not only the residents but neighbors providing aid is violent. its centuries of criminalizing poverty

Spotted in the vicinity of the Weelaunee forest today: a man in a shirt reading "Police Forest Task Force" featuring rifles with extended clips and a gas mask. This is not the look of people who work for peace and safety; rather, they are at war with the community. #StopCopCity
