The State 🤝 Capital interests = Fascism.
The bill titled Enhancing State Energy Security Planning and Emergency Preparedness Act of 2021, would create a federal law that weaponizes and mobilizes state AND private security forces against native water/land protectors. It opens up a direct avenue for states to accept and solicit private funding from anyone (including any private corporation) to protect their investments under the guise of creating “energy security plans” which includes any “critical” infrastructure. This also opens the door to payment of private security forces by the state. This is a fucking horrifying real time descent into fascism.
