For three years now, activists of the stop cop city movement are fighting with Atlanta to restrict the construction of a military base in the middle of the city.

Despite a long and feisty fight - mainstream media sources lack coverage of Cop City or are manufacturing the consent of the audience. In this video essay, we explore the propaganda campaign that surrounds cop city and how the government is building a case to attack climate activists with terrorist changes.

Despite movements like Black Lives Matter and uprising strikes and strong social movements in US and worldwide - both Biden democrats and republicans in the US are doubling down on funding for police and military. United states are not alone in this race - Europe, UK and Australia have published real prison sentences for activists from Earth Liberation Front, Just Stop Oil, Extension Rebellion and Land Defenders / Water Protectors.

For several years now, governments are cranking out laws that are meant to restrict climate activists and attach real prison sentences to climate activism that takes a position against climate change. Cop City is only the beginning of the false criminal accusations that will be meant to worsen as a defence for the rich and powerful in the future.
