'Whenever we can break their little laws with impunity, we show that the State is weak. When advertising is defaced and public space is liberated, we show that capitalism is not absolute."

...not for good reasons though. Wish this would stop happening every year. Glad we're finally getting some coverage of it though; you'd think after the arson last year there would've been at least some attention.

94 followers · 1078 posts · Server cosocial.caIt is outrageous that the City of Montreal is not restoring the statue of Sir John A. Macdonald. If there had been a petition, a study, a legitimate process *prior* to removing the statue, that would be one thing. But in this case a mob has imposed its will, and then the City has acquiesced to the act of vandalism.

Similarly, people get a thrill out of opening a bridge and then leaving it open, which blocks all land traffic (cars, bikes, pedestrians).

More Pride flags celebrating local Pride week vandalised in Finland. Video featuring burning flags and a bible quote circling in social media.
I’ve lost count how many there’s been this year, (maybe 4?) but I remember quite vividly the one where a far right nazi planning several terrorist attacks, manufacturing 3D printed weapons etc, turned out to be the same person who vandalised pride flags on video in Oulu some time ago. #politicsFI #pride #nazis #finland #vandalism #hateCrimes #humanRights

It's always tricky to navigate whether 'vandalising' art is an creative or destructive act without bringing politics into the debate. Controversy rages in London's street art community over a Brick Lane graffiti project for violating unwritten rules among street artists.
Propaganda, Vandalism, or Art?:

Rage, Riots & State-Led Retribution: Reconstructing Haryana’s Week Of Violence
After six people in a religious procession—infiltrated by Hindu extremists wielding swords and firing guns—were killed in an attack by Muslims, four Muslims died in retaliation. As rioting reached Delhi’s doorstep, hundreds of Muslims fled or stayed away from work. Then, the State stepped in, detaining nearly 150 Muslims, including minors, and demolishing Muslim properties. Article14 visited a terrorised village emptied of Muslim men, while Islamophobic rallies continued unhindered, and the cow vigilantes who incited the armed mob stayed free, one facing charges of killing Muslims.
