August 27 2023 Black Rock Desert, NEVADA - "30 seconds, send your leader to my vehicle, let's talk, get off the fricken road" - Tribal Ranger announced on the highway leading to #BurningMan festival where climate activists blocked the road. About 37 seconds later a ranger RAMMED through blockade, made arrest at gun point.

Climate activists from XR and “7 Seven Circles” shut down highway leading to the Burning Man Festival, withing the tribal lands.

Attendees quickly became irate, confronting the group blockading the road and physically attempting to remove the blockade. Some attendees sped thru close by the chained activists.

Rangers rushed in to the group, ramming through the blockade and rushing out with gun pointed to arrest protesters. Several arrests were made during the incident, including the legal observer as activists blocked traffic into Burning Man festival on the event’s first day open to the general public.

The group blocked a main thoroughfare using a trailer, lock-ons, and banners with the words “BURNERS OF THE WORLD, UNITE!”, “ABOLISH CAPITALISM”, and “GENERAL STRIKE FOR CLIMATE”.

The thing with force, from any side of a situation, is The State has no other choice but to overcome with force by more force. Anything else will be perceived as capitulating and giving up from an actual organized opposition point of view.


Suspect barricaded in a car? Police will force overwhelm the car. Organized bank robbery like in CA shootout 40 years ago? Same thing, only way the State can respond is meet force with superior force.

A certain demographic has yet to realize the reality and we now have daily videos of individual lessons being given. I like to think of them as video classroom learning activities.

Judging by OP unawareness this has been posted numerous times…. Apparently rickgrimes has a life and doesn’t spend every waking minute on the rant.

Hats off to OP. I’m serious.

This is going to get out of hand in the future. Eco terrorism is about to become dangerous. Here is the issue. I unlock most of you believe that the climate is changing just like it always has through time, but probably is effected by man for an enhanced timetable. I also believe there is nothing you can do to stop it. From my understanding most climatologists agree with this statement. I hear they are a very pessimistic bunch. The government and media want us to believe there is hope to change so they fuel these people belief that we can change it. As things continue to downgrade, which the models say is inevitable, then these people are going to become more and more radicalized.

They’ll find out quickly about Tribal Courts and messing around. They have their own court system and generally protect themselves well. They don’t give a flying flip if you “got it” on video either. I love how bearded bass-arse becomes Mr Meek on the side when the arrive and how fast the woman’s arm pops out the tube when they take it down.

I wonder how the protesters and all their gear got out to the middle of nowhere?

Maybe Leo’s private jet.

When the cuffs started to be applied, Green t-shirt starts saying "I'm not part of this...I'm not part of this."

Tribal Ranger tells him to shut up and get on his belly. Cuffed.

Burning Man is having a rough go of it thus year:

#BREAKING: Burning Man Festival Declares National Emergency as over 73,000 Campers are trapped Urged to Shelter in Place Amid Flooding Crisis

??#Blackrock | #Nevada

Currently, more than 73,000 festival attendees and campers are trapped with no access in or out of the Burning Man festival that takes place in Black Rock City, Nevada. This situation has arisen after a heavy overnight rainstorm transformed the once dry, dusty desert into an undrivable mud pit, causing disastrous conditions. Festival-goers have been asked to shelter in place and conserve food and water due to the poor conditions. Travelers were informed that burning man festival is closed, and anyone heading to the festival will be turned away, as a national emergency has been declared at the festival.


The hippies have declared a national emergency.

There are bigger problems at Burning Man due to heavy rain. They’ve closed the site for entry or exit because of thick mud. What a mess.
