- Henri Lefebvre, The Right to the City — In brief, the right to the city is the right to the production of a city. The labor of a worker is the source of most of the value of a commodity that is expropriated by the owner. The worker, therefore, has a right to benefit from that value denied to them. In the same way, the urban citizen produces and reproduces the city through their own daily actions. However, the the city is expropriated from the urbanite by the rich and the state. The right to the city is therefore the right to appropriate the city by and for those who make and remake it.

Concrete anchors with lag bolts would be wayyy more effective than epoxy - drill into the concrete, hammer in the anchors, and bolt that bench down so it takes serious tools and effort to remove it (bonus points if you use security-head bolts that need special drivers).
They would, but if I'm surreptitiously installing something to make a point, I'm not sure I want to start drilling into concrete. Maybe with a high vis vest during the workday.
