Activist Apes Erect 2,001-Pound Monolith In Front Of DEA Headquarters, Demanding Feds ‘Evolve’ On Drug Policy

[vostok]

A group of activists dressed in ape suits danced around an eight-foot monolith that they erected outside of the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA)
headquarters on Wednesday, calling on the agency to evolve its policies on marijuana and other controlled substances.

It’s OK if you need to read that again.


A group calling itself Anonymous Apes organized the stunt to protest DEA policies such as the criminalization of drugs like cannabis and psilocybin
and the way the agency enforces current bans, such as through the use of deadly no-knock raids. It was a play on Stanley Kubric’s 1968 sci-fi film 2001:
A Space Odyssey, in which apes discover an alien monolith that accelerates human evolution
