Don't let me catch you hating on Chuck Schumer on here. The man has been in office since 1980. I *think* he knows a little something about politics. Do not ask me what's happened to politics since 1980 please

"They had the professional demeanor of criminals."

I'm starting to think the Trumpist mastery of propaganda is failing them. The DHS agents posing this way makes it look like they're ashamed of themselves.

Yes, good idea. Show your audience that older white men who look exactly like them have donned tshirts with strong and nobel slogans, and are stoically staring at the camera while the police cowardly turn their backs

I guess my point is, despite my allergy to inventing taxonomy, we still need words that let us plainly say: this stuff has no mind, but it still reorganizes meaning at scale.
Never mind the incentives that "this stuff has no mind" goes against, exactly why Anthropic has a house philosopher.

Someone should play the video of Fátima Lucas Henrique’s screams as she was kidnapped by federal agents on the way to her early morning nursing shift to Sen Susan Collins wherever she shows her face. This is happening to Mainers on her watch.

That's it, I'm upgrading from Tarpeian Socialism to advocating for crucifixion.
Anadith Danay Reyes Álvarez died in government custody.
She had sickle cell and congenital heart disease but couldn’t access timely and adequate medical care.
We need to reform immigration detention.

Sure is weird how much misinformation and rumors about Signal being insecure, being hacked by the FBI, being unnecessary and overkill for protesters, etc, have been circulating on the web lately. What a weird coincidence.
