    Lmao my bio professor told us about that book while we were out doing field studies in the early 2000s. He was a cool dude and a big reason why I am a communist now.

    It’s also available on the anarchist library.

    Also seconding the recommendation of warning operators even as another poster said if you don’t even know if there are spikes or not. Anything to sow doubt is good.

      The point of spiking isn’t to hurt the loggers and sawmill workers, the point of spiking is to make the risk of cutting down the tree in the first place so high that they don’t do it.

      A spiked tree going through a sawmill is still a tree that got cut down.
