Having dealt with gen AI as an editor--and alarmed the higher-ups about about it making shit up and us having to fact-check what it kicked out--I can vouch for this, esp. that it really doesn't save any time.
The kid also understands the fundamental thing that seems to perpetually get scrubbed out of every conversation about gen AI, which is that it MAKES SHIT UP. This editor wants journos to become glorified fact-checkers for slop that they will still inevitably have to rewrite! None of this saves time!

I’d never attempt mutual aid but I can’t risk losing everything. Someone(s) HAS to be able to help get us out this rut.

This!
Part of the reason it’s been so hard to get any traction on anti-ICE legislation - or even people in power openly criticising their actions - is because it’s basically impossible to thread the needle of condemning their brutality and cruelty while “supporting law enforcement” since cops do the same.
*sigh* People that know nothing about criminal justice reform, police, or Black people, just on here declaring as fact things that are absolutely not true.

There is no harm that ICE is doing that is not currently being done by cops at between 10X to 100x the scale.

Shootings. False detention.

Give people what they need. Don't assume they're all scammers. Don't assume you know better than the person living it.

Mutual Aid saves lives.
I'll say it again: scammers aren't pretending to be people in need when there are infinitely easier scams like pretending to be am artist to trick thier customers.

Its Harder than anything to get help for an urgent survival needs.

Hard enough not to be worth scamming.

I need $1,431 to avoid eviction ($381 from last month + $1,050 current rent).
I’m disabled, applying for WFH jobs and help fell through. Losing housing would seriously impact my health.

Another Bad Thing™ about the SAVE Act is that it puts a lot of restrictions on voters who need assistance at the polls. That compounded with mail-in restrictions is going to disenfranchise so many disabled folks.
