some gems spotted around town
the resistance is unstoppable
another world is possible
on an electrical box in front of the sheriff's office, a wheatpasted flyer printed with nemik's manifesto and the symbol of the rebel alliance from star wars-kind of like a crescent moon with the points facing up and a sort of three-petaled flower rising slightly taller than those points in the center. (manifesto transcribed in alt text for the next, closeup, photo) close up of flyer with Nemik’s manifesto printed on it. transcription: There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy. Remember this: Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they’ve already enlisted in the cause. Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward. And then remember this: The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. And know this: the day will come when all these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empire’s authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege. Remember this. Try. a wheatpasted flyer on a newspaper box that reads "revolt" 6 times across in rows of capital letters, where each row's "o" is overlaid with a knot on a rope in reference to the pueblo revolt of 1680. the second "revolt" from bottom is red and the rest are black, referencing the timing of the revolution two stickers on an electrical box, one is a usps shipping label with a hand drawn person swinging a club and the text "i smell swine" and the second says "no one is illegal"
