Current view. Will have an update later with actual chairs. (I typed and deleted several words like "hopefully" or "planning" because I don't get those, I am doing the thing damnit)

And in fact, quite a few dem electeds and a broad swath of digital activists are constantly rolling out new iterations of the fash-tech playbook while mistakenly expecting them to produce outcomes that don’t somehow further the culture and methods of fascism.

The deep story here is that faux-populist influencer technologies are not just undemocratic with a veneer of democratic freedom but are intensely anti-democratic, but you would be hard-pressed to know the difference if you weren’t thinking critically about it instead of trying to “build an audience”

THIS IS IMPORTANT
I posted briefly about this the other day but I wanted to post this subject again with a fuller thread to stress how this is the most important issue behind ICE in the streets at all.

TOM HOMAN: “We’re going to create a database where those people that are arrested for interference, impeding and assault, we’re going to make them famous. We’re going to put their face on TV. We’re going to let their employers, in their neighborhoods, in their schools, know who these people are.”

Dear Rachel,
This is a good day to actually unpack and set up those chairs.
Love, Rachel.
P.S. Yes you may have more coffee first but you may not go to bed without chairs.

It's not just the women and girls we know of. It's all their future work, and everything they could have been, and how we build structures that shelter their abusers. It's how a man's future has always been worth more than my past, present, and future combined.

"We would have lost so much if we'd driven him away" is the justification.

Good. "But DHS isn't just ICE, it's also..." nope, wrong. DHS no longer serves any useful functions, the whole thing has been reassigned to repression. FEMA isn't even paying out to states. All DHS does is shooting, teargassing, facial recognition, and administrative warrants. Shut it down.
Senate Majority Leader John Thune said Thursday that demands made by Democrats for new restrictions on federal immigration officers are “unrealistic” and warned that the Department of Homeland Security will shut down next week if they do not work with Republicans and the White House.

This is the Yale professor's explanation for why he described the physical attractiveness of a student in an email to Epstein. He explicitly says he regrets nothing about their association.

A busy day at Final Fantasy colony— we successfully trapped Laguna’s dad (one of the last couple intact males here & a perfect copy of his son) but while there, I noticed Setzer, a young male we did several weeks ago, had severe swelling in his legs & was avoiding walking. We’re at the ER now w/him.
