Welcome To The Shire

by andieburky

Literally where I stand in this “historical accuracy” discourse lol

do not get IR blocking fabric or thick wool to cover your nose and mouth

do not get IR blocking sunglasses since facial recognition has moved up to targeting and identifying the upper face

do not avoid having your phone or any bluetooth devices around these cameras as they can detect and track those signals

do not buy cheap green lasers 1 milliwatt or above from etsy or walmart or amazon (i will not try and find a link if you ask)

do not use them to fry those fuckers from a distance damage the delicate inner sensors by pointing the beam in the lenses

AND unless you want to cost Flock more money in repairs, do not buy a small circle saw or a reciprocating saw and cut down the pole

OR do not climb said poles, spray paint on the solar panels, cover the lens with paint or a sticker, then use bolt cutters to sever the wires

when doing all these things, DO NOT avoid using latex gloves as fingerprints can leak through

DO NOT USE DEFLOCK TO FIND FLOCK SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS NEAR YOU

remember, flock is for YOUR safety :) even though crime rates have not gone down since they were implemented, they're being abused to track down exes and s/os, and many face pools or houses or schools or gymnasiums! Where there are no liscence plates to be found!

DO NOT DO THESE THINGS and enjoy a life under surveillance!

enjoy living in the country where 87,000 of these cameras were used to track down a woman who got an abortion!

enjoy living in the country where there's no consequences for a flock exec to watch a inside of a gymnastics place without their knowledge!

Remember, this is their American Dream.

Someone in the comments linked to some digging and it’s also from something that happened between 2018-2024.

The cable is in use and has been since 2025.

Making sure to add this before I post because I almost let my first impression get the better of me and rant without checking anything just because of how angry I get about anything JK related now. But I don’t want to spread misinformation because of that.

“despite the bbc reporting on this, it's probably not true and based only on someone lying on a podcast.” https://bsky.app/profile/pantherraccoon.bsky.social/post/3msqfg6n2ks2r

Gaza is similar, a group of people (bjgger but more targeted) attacked Israel and this was then used as a reason to launch a war on the entire enclave

Both of these retaliations were, back then and now, called self defense and "national safety" and what have you, with absolutely no regards to the countless deaths that could have been avoided along the way

What this shows, 25 years apart, is that people we consider as "western" and "white" are worth more to our governments than brown people. Cuz one of our deaths justifies the killing of hundreds, but if we kill someone in the middle east they're just supposed to accept that

And I'm not saying "yay 9/11" or whatever, what I'm saying is that big shots like the US or Israel can murder hundreds of thousands of innocent people and no one questions it until it's too late to make a difference while any death attributed to an Arab or black person is put on the entire ethnic group as a shared responsibility and so everyone has to answer for it

Rats run inside while we’re sitting, insects are everywhere, and every small movement makes me jump in fear. A few days ago, a stray dog entered our tent, and I panicked, terrified for my children’s safety.

The war may no longer be breaking news to the world. But for us, it is still our everyday life.

Donation

We’re getting closer to $30,000, and I’m hoping we can reach it together.

If you can spare a few dollars today, please consider donating.

It may feel small to you, but it means a lot to us.

yes, every neighbour who is spied on first hears a CLUNK. CLANK. CLUNK as he climbs into position. and then they look over, and see his fat pink belly and staring eyes. definitely an experience.

We are living in a tent with almost nothing, trying to get through one day at a time. But my biggest fear right now is my father. His health is getting worse, and he needs treatment and medication that we are struggling to afford every single day.

I never imagined that I would have to ask strangers for help just to keep my family going and to keep my father alive. But this is where we are now.

Please help my family with a donation and share our story with your friends.

We are still here, still trying to hold on. Please don’t let us face this alone.

We need $700 today for her urgent treatment. Just 14 people giving $50 can save her chance to live.

Please don't scroll away. Donate if you can, or reblog to help this reach someone who can.

Every share matters. Every dollar matters. My mother's life matters.

MY LAST POST; first post about it getting bad

Since vetted by Gazavetters!

Art and other rewards being offered for those who have proof of donation (such as a screenshot of receipt, probably with personal information blacked out) to the well-known vetting lists and a few other.
