linear algebra is not ontologically evil
Pinned
about half the people on this website act like the first time anyone lied on the internet is when we managed to teach linear algebra to do it. like separating truth from fiction is somehow a new demand that this talking magic box imposes on us.

I am seeing quite a few nurses calling for a nationwide strike over the killing of Alex Pretti. I think we are seeing one of the largest workforces being radicalized before our very eyes.

Minnesota strongly implying that the Feds not just took actions that destroyed evidence, but did so on purpose.
JUST IN: In a new lawsuit, Minnesota officials say DHS mishandled evidence from today's crime scene and made "astonishing" law enforcement decisions. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

every great laker has a little switch in the back of their head and if you flip it they decide they only get to go to lutheran heaven if they kill a plantation owner and the more plantation owners they kill the more lutheran the heaven they get to go to becomes

“I live on a rural island in Alaska, reachable only by plane or boat. In our little town, 50 to 100 people stand outside each week at our town's roundabout to protest and hold vigil and stand in solidarity with you. We hold signs supporting Minnesota and demanding ICE Out.”

"You mean prosecuting?"

"I said what I said"
I will immediately resign from my corporate gig and take the attendant pay cut if a future D POTUS offers me a DOJ spot persecuting members of this Administration
Honestly a federal commission with prosecutorial authority paired with stripping immunity from ICE officers would be a huge wombo combo

This is obscene. All of this is obscene.
Only speaking personally, but today’s execution isn’t scaring me from protecting our neighbors, as some suggest is ICE’s goal. Nor am I angry with incandescent rage, in that I know such rage is unhelpful. Rather, I feel like it has forced me to truly accept that the same fate might befall me.

I am past that.
I am past 'retrain ICE.' I am past 'reform ICE.' I am past 'abolish ICE.'

I am at 'imprison ICE.'
Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

A shutdown in this context is a propaganda war, just like the one they did over ACA subsidies. Except this time instead of saying "We did this because they won't fund health care" you say "We did this because they're killing you in the streets with impunity"
One irony here: a shutdown won't shut down ICE or the Border Patrol, which got massive infusion of money last year in the GOP's 'One Big Beautiful Bill,' and the White House would surely deem these operations 'essential.'

Shutdowns are the snap elections of American politics
i am pro shutdown and have been from more or less day one. this is a disaster, it ends in disaster, and the only job i care about any elected doing is pushing for it to end sooner, and withholding their consent to any other outcome

If the rationalist scene had [dealt with] Eigenrobot a decade ago, the world would be in an appreciatively better state.

"Doing the most good you can do," sometimes means [dealing with] the fascist dipshit right beside you. Antifascist action has long been one of the highest ROIs possible.

To every person who has said "power comes from the barrel of a gun" with a smirk, today is clear evidence of why it doesn't. They've been trying to make that true and it's not happening. We are going to win. Every loss before we get there will be a tragedy, but we are going to win.
