Former strait-laced full time professional normie. As a queer, recent events have broken my brain and I’m ready to start fighting.
Posters seem safe. I’ve heard wheatpasting is a thing? It seems like it would be harder to get in and out that way - the double sided tape someone could load up ahead of time, hit and run. Is the appeal of wheatpasting that it’s natural/cheap?
There’s also chalk, markers, stickers and spraycans with different levels of state prosecution depending on your jurisdiction / country (e. g. I think stickers are not illegal in Germany, while spraying / markers are?).
A Field Guide to Wheatpasting - Everything You Need to Know to Blanket the World in Posters
Why I like wheatpasting:
- When dried, removing posters is harder compared to tape.
- Also work on more surface.
- Might not be relevant for you, but you can apply it easier without leaving fingerprints.
- I also enjoy the process of cooking my own wheatpaste. -Also the city I live enforces the laws around wheatpasting very rarely so its relatively safe compared to other cities/countries.

Is that really a concern? I’m US-based, so our cops are sadists…
One of my projects is something that I would be willing to be arrested for. That kind of civil disobedience would draw attention to my cause, and it is one that I think most people would be empathetic too - my mission is drawing attention to abuse at a children’s psychiatric facility.
I did have an adventure today - even got chased down by a dog! Feel like a proper crimethinc member.

I think it should be atleast evaluated and its okay to come to the conclusion to not care about fingerprints.
