DONT USE MOLOTOVS: Some notes on safely burning teslas (or other cars)

Posted onLeave a comment

Seeing the wave of tesla arsons has made us incredibly happy. But we are worried to see that many of these attacks have used molotovs

-molotovs aren’t guaranteed to ignite/explode. There have been many cases where police have recovered intact molotov cocktails from attacks. that is a shitton of forensic evidence that detectives WILL exploit.
-Even if the bottle does shatter, the shards of glass still likely contain tons of valuable forensic evidence
-Molotovs are loud and immediately create a big flame, all of which kills the element of surprise needed for arson attacks, which runs the risk of you getting captured or the fire gets extinguished much quicker

Water, Land, and Freedom: My Journey Through a Decade of Pipeline Resistance on the Yintah and Beyond

Posted onLeave a comment

From It’s Going Down Franklin Lopez looks back on grassroots movement media and the creation of the documentary film, Yintah. In the summer of 2011, I was exhausted—physically, mentally, creatively. I’d just finished hauling my feature film, END:CIV, across North America, and when I got back to Vancouver, I didn’t even have a place to sleep. So, I did what many DIY filmmakers do: I moved into my van. That’s Read More …

Reorientation: Some Changes to North Shore Counter-Info

Posted on2 Comments

We started North Shore Counter-Info in 2018 with the intention of encouraging written reflection, principled debate and public communication for anarchists across so-called southern ontario. In the context of a growing dependence on corporate social media platforms, we wanted (and still want) to provide an anonymous alternative that prioritizes thoughtful and dangerous contributions over throwaway takes and media jargon. In the seven years since, we have noticed a change in Read More …

How to defend yourself during a police interrogation

Posted on

Français Deutsch An interrogation is not a harmonious exchange between two individuals. It’s a conflict. And in this conflict, our ignorance is their strength. Ignorance of the meaning of police work, ignorance of the manipulative techniques used, ignorance of the legal framework and, last but not least, ignorance of our means of defence. In response to this observation, this book is intended as a tool for self-defense against police interrogation Read More …

Posted on2 Comments

Earlier this week a group of people sabotaged Gastops’ factory in Ottawa, the only place in the world where engine sensors are produced for Lockheed’s F-35 combat jets — including the ones dropping 2,000 pound bombs on Gaza. We cut the wiring inside all of the heat pumps on the Gastops roof, locked them out with official Ministry of Health and Safety lock-out tags, shut off the gas, broke the handles for their systems, and cut the lines to their backup communication system on the way out.
