Stop corporate bullies

0 of us are resisting corporate intimidation!

Billionaires and corporations want control of our rights and freedoms.

They use their vast fortunes to gut regulations, influence political candidates who serve their interests, control public debate through buying media, and silence dissent using intimidation tactics.

But they made a mistake: They underestimated our collective power to resist.

Even amidst this surge in authoritarianism, many more people believe in the power and hope of action. While they push division, we are building a movement. We are rising above their rhetoric to renew decency and community. It’s time to resist attempts to isolate us by joining together, to resist attempts at sowing division by rediscovering our common ground, and to resist the politics of competition and domination by cooperating as part of one people-powered movement.

We resist. Now. Together. For us all.

What is a SLAPP?

A Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation (SLAPP), is a legal tactic to bury nonprofits, activists, journalists, and other public advocates in legal fees, drain their resources, and ultimately silence dissent. These abusive lawsuits are a key weapon used by the oligarchs and corporate polluters against those advocating for a green, just future.

There is a global surge in bullying lawsuits that weaponise the legal system to shut down dissent. Like Energy Transfer’ SLAPP in North Dakota against three Greenpeace entities that returned a judgment of US$345million – every SLAPP, regardless of the defendant, is an attack on everyone who believes in the power of free speech and the right to peaceful protest.

We’re taking a Big Oil bully to court

Greenpeace International is taking Big Oil bully Energy Transfer to court in the Netherlands with a landmark anti-SLAPP case to pursue justice under Dutch and EU law. The pipeline company has been waging abusive lawsuits against Greenpeace International and Greenpeace in the US for nearly a decade.

This anti-SLAPP lawsuit – invoking the European Union’s new directive for the first time – sends a clear message to every bully, billionaire, and corporate polluter: your era of intimidation is over, and your tactics of fear will no longer work.

They want us — and all climate activists — to be scared by their corporate intimidation tactics. But their tactics won’t succeed. Netherlands-based Greenpeace International’s landmark case is already underway. It’s time to resist!
