Someone sent me a link to the Twitter version of Eric's post, and the comments perfectly illustrate why I'm against the idea. The most vocal support comes from the biggest angriest idiots on the biggest angry idiot platform. And those are the people who'd be signing up to conduct these ops.
Gotta say, I think Marcus makes an interesting point.

If the vast vast majority of Americans want reasonable gun controls and they can't get passed by the Congress then our democracy is broken. Or to be more accurate, it has been corrupted. The consciences and reason of our DC leaders have been purchased...for a pittance. Stop the $$ to stop the guns.

- enshittify the internet to the point of unusability
- end childhood vaccinations
- reserve healthcare for the rich
- cut humanities programs at universities
- pour the nation's wealth into AI companies

"Black people are tired. Not metaphorically tired—actually tired. The kind of tired that turns every group chat into a mix of gallows humor and emotional triage."

I write about white ignorance and how exhausting it is to hear white ppl insist "this isn't who we are, when it's ALWAYS who we've been.
