Inside ICE Detention: Stripped, Shackled, Starved

Overcrowded facilities, poor medical care, and deaths in custody.

Systematic violations of civil and constitutional rights.

What are you still waiting for, America?

ICE continues to kidnap people & use violent tactics!

Not doing much to refute my theory that the intended outcome of the current RW accelerationist trend in tech is to make things so bad that we beg them to step in and take over

Nobody knows how to run a business. They only know how to buy assets. Sell assets. And bring in consultants to spend money on efficiencies and outside tech that barely works.
Also, Paramount has released a grand total of 7 films this year; it has barely kept the lights on. Ellison has announced plans to expand that to 15 in coming years. Does anyone imagine he is going to double his studio's output AND support a second studio slate as well? It will not happen.

Bad framing: ACIP voted to scrap the universal hepatitis B vaccine recommendation for newborns.

Accurate framing: Anti-vax conspiracy theorists appointed to ACIP by Robert Kennedy Jr., who made a fortune as an anti-vax profiteer, voted to expose babies to a preventable, incurable, deadly illness.

I assumed the NSS would just ignore/deprioritize Europe (It did that on defense/NATO).

But the actual message was: Europe matters to us, we must save it from itself, the EU and its wokeness. Thus, the USG is going all in on foreign interference to help the far-right win a civilizational war.

There is no justice, especially in Idaho.

Unlawful, and unpermitted, use of force, detainment, kidnapping, etc by a private entity directed by Sheriff Norris (that somehow was not discharged). The city of Coeur d'Alene dismisses criminal charges against acts of terroristic violence and abduction.

"Footage obtained by The New York Times of the moment a Waymo car ran over Kit Kat, a beloved San Francisco bodega cat, raises new questions about the company’s safeguards."

Waymo's robots lack situational awareness to an alarming and prob unacceptable extent.

I mean, we get trained on this annually.

NEVER get in a vehicle against your will. Ever. Fight your way out. Far better chances if you get shot and left for dead than if you get moved to a second location.

By like a 10: 1 factor.

Fuck that, never go willingly

What scares me is what's happening to women & children.

The lack of vetting & culture of violence & #ICELawlessness

FWIW, the "Once the pedestrian had moved out of the path of the vehicle, the car pulled away" is also how a Waymo robot hit and ran a cyclist.

Once the hit cyclist got up and moved out of the way, the robot drove off. Waymo had to send someone to track it down and drive it back to the scene.

Fuck this so much. How long before all of our media runs through one or two companies? It's not just bad for entertainment. It's dangerous when only a few voices control the flow of information and ideas. Look at how timid and lifeless the news industry has become.
