I know it’s not hard to point out reactionaries hypocrisy when it comes to like safe spaces or hug boxes or whatever but genuinely how much of an echo chamber do you have to exist in for you to think this is a reasonable thing to say

buc-ees is planning on building a large location in north carolina that will detroy 32 acres occaneechi saponi land, the proposed location is in the middle of the historic occaneechi trading path that is part of a larger network historic trade routes in the south eastern US, and additionally has traditional ceremonial grounds and burial grounds in the vicinity. there is no contingency planning happening on buc-ees part for if a spill were to happen, potentially harming the wildlife in the area, and contaminating water.

7 Directions of Service

Environmental harms Studies show emissions from the concentration of just 200 running vehicles can create harmful conditions for breathing. Buc-ee’s 25,000 estimated daily visitors will result in an air pollution hot-spot. The location is home to multiple schools, a church and low-income neighborhoods, and is already overburdened with heavy air pollution from semi-truck emissions and Stericycle, a medical waste incinerator. Just 10 gallons of petroleum has the potential to contaminate up to 12 million gallons of water. Buc-ee’s will store hundreds of thousands of gallons of petroleum and hazardous chemicals underground, which risk soaking into soil, drinking water sources, and the fragile Back Creek of the Haw River Watershed.

Desecration of the Occaneechi Trading Path The entirety of the great Occaneechi Trading Path ran from Virginia to Alabama, and a significant section of the path in Mebane, NC is threatened by Buc-ee’s. The Occaneechi Trading Path was more than just a means for trade for Southeastern Native American communities. It was a way of sharing language, stories, technology and culture. It connected villages, as well as hunting grounds and ceremonial sites, such as burial mounds. Those who traveled along the path would set up camp on elevated grounds and by waterways, and anyone who died while traveling would have been buried on site.

Working people deserve better In 2017, a Texas court ruled Buc-ee’s repayment provisions in its employment agreements were illegal and likened it to “indentured servitude”. Hundreds of employee ratings on popular job websites like Indeed and Glassdoor rank the chain lower than most major corporations, even worse than Amazon. As local shops struggle to keep the lights on in our corporate-driven, globalized economy, Buc-ee’s inescapable billboards and cheap trinkets will only draw visitors away from downtown. As one elder put it, “when tourists are shopping at Buc-ee’s, they’re not shopping in Mebane.”

Phase out fossil fuels An economy tied to fossil fuels is unpredictable and makes us vulnerable to foreign supply chain disruptions and conflicts. Renewable sources like solar and wind are more reliable and cheaper, and transitioning to them will help us avoid the worst of the climate crisis. By proliferating their giant gas stations across the country full of Buc-ee’s-branded junk, Buc-ee’s is a dagger in our local economies and our momentum to transition to cheaper, renewable energy options. Investing in locally-driven renewable energy is the way to achieve energy independence and to counteract the extreme weather conditions caused by the climate crisis.
