Spreading misinformation about how the pipeline has been defeated is exactly the point of the delays being issued.

They hand out a minor meaningless victories to give people catharsis.

Then people stop caring and look away.

We won everyone thinks, we celebrate the work we did by simply spreading the word.

Then most people stop paying attention and the construction resumes.

This delay doesn’t even protect all the cultural sites or even halt construction along most of the pipeline’s route. Just in a specific area.

This isn’t a victory really.

The pipeline needs to be stopped in its entirety.

All construction must be stopped in order to respect the treaties and protect the people, the water, and the land.
