    Cameras everywhere tracking everyone? Safety.

    A map listing the locations of cameras, not people? Terrorism.

    This is troubling news. Antifa should sue him for this defamatory comparison. Someone get the president of antifa on the line, stat!

    Yeah no question what his political affiliations and actual motives are.

    Why is antifa always the devil in those sorts of communities?

    My personal theory is that claiming antifa is bad allows them to imply that fascism is good without directly saying it, conditioning their base to accept all the face eating as just a cost of rooting out the wicked terrorists.

    I may be giving them too much credit, though.

    Bad branding doesn't help. Saying the full words "anti-fascist" makes it clear what is being talked about. Antifa is pithy but to people who don't know, it sounds like a shady terror organization.

    Getting upset humans are manually mapping where these cameras are while installing these cameras that essentially are cataloging everything they can about comings and goings is pretty hypocritical!

    Surveillance cameras tracking everyone: Apparently okay

    People tracking surveillance cameras: Suddenly terrorism

    Make it make sense lol.

    Calling a website against your company anti-fascist seems to imply something is fascist...

    I can help translate that:

    "Anything I don't like is terorrism. Waaaah waaaaah waaah my profits waaaah my private jet"

    EDIT: For the record, I don't know who this guy is and Flock is not a thing where I live, but he seems like such a piece of shit I couldn't help myself

    Hey remember that time when that one guy tracked fElon's private jet...then got banned by said fElon for merely existing?

    It's free speech until it's not

    And of course he is jumping on the Republican narrative that Antifa is a formal terrorist organization

    Apropos of nothing, for your own safety, just be aware that high-powered hand-held blue or green lasers (1W+) are extremely dangerous and can permanently damage both human eyes and camera sensors beyond repair.

    And be extra careful not to accidentally point one at a camera without face coverings and nondescript clothing or they might think you did it on purpose and try to prosecute you.

    Oh yeah, the number one least recommended thing would be to dress in dark neutral colors with a face covering, and arrive on something like a common generic bicycle or on foot. That might make it difficult to bring such a person to justice, which would be a shame.

    Sigh… it’s just going to bounce off the lens/protective cover, take forever if it works at all, and draw a bunch of attention to yourself.

    Whereas a cheap paintball gun is faster, safer, probably cheaper, verifiable, and more fun.

    Don’t get me wrong, I love the creativity, passion and potential stealth… assuming you use a scope the way yabbos did years ago when they were pointing them at aircraft… but a 1+ watt laser is fairly dangerous and not easy to aim from a distance, so maybe use a tripod if you’re really hellbent on doing it this way.

    Also, laser safety glasses.

    In closing, a quote from one of my favorite movies “You’ll put your eye out kid!”

    If you're getting called a terrorist by these people, you're doing something right.

    If marking privacy invading cameras run by a non-benevolent entity makes me a terrorist, then I guess I'll just add it to the list.

    I also oppose fascism, assist in creation and dissemination of zines, and am pro-educating people on things like communism, socialism, and the dangers of late-stage capitalism.

    And don't even get me started on my opinions of governments and borders in general.

    I'm basically public enemy #1! I mean, there plenty who do more than I do, but y'know... Public enemy #56,913 doesn't sound as neat.

    Yoru primary motivation is violating everyone's privacy and trying to reenslave humanity. Pretty sure that's worse.

    I'm starting to wonder if they CBA hiding it anymore. Or they're incompetence is just boundless. Either is plausible.
