    Cameras everywhere tracking everyone? Safety.

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

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

      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.

      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.

    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

      Favicon seems AI gen.

      Also, they are selling merch and the pictures of stickers are on a Tesla. A big brother style sticker on a Tesla is ironic.

    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!

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

    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.
