Cars were stopped and chains were used to block traffic lanes on the famous bridge. Protesters also blocked traffic in Chicago, New York City and Seattle.
The proposal states that in each city, we will identify and blockade major choke points in the economy, focusing on points of production and circulation with the aim of causing the most economic impact, as did the port shutdowns in recent months in Oakland, California and Melbourne, Australia, as just a few examples.
Hurting the rich’s pocket books is the only language they respect. Now I’m not sure blocking roads is the most effective form of this tactic. Usually you use labor unions. But they’re probably just working with what they have.
Media attention is a consequence of success that activists mistake for success itself. If you start seeking it out you’ll get caught in the trap of trying to control how the networks present you when you can’t control the networks at all. Pretty soon you’re doing useless shit like trying to levitate the Pentagon. Or worse, volunteering to get arrested en-masse.
Media attention is a failed outdated tactic.
