Oakland: Google Bus Paint Bombed

Google, Facebook, and the other tech companies were told to leave. They did not. They were told why they should leave. They did not care. So now we don't care. Expect more of this until the tech companies discontinue their free shuttle services. Our streets are filling with apolitical people glued to their smartphones. They are driving up the rents. We cannot pay our rents. We are being evicted. We are being displaced. They are living the high life. Every time they walk down the street, we see their wealth, their privelige, their comfort. Behind them, we see homelessness, addiction, violence, and despair. They care only for themselves. We care for the people.

To the union bus drivers, we mean no harm to you, but do not stand between us and the ruling class. You have more in common with us than with them. Act like it.
