A lot of people haven't seen the news & videos of ICE's racial profiling and Gestapo tactics because the media they consume isn't covering it.

So I made a website to collect posts from various social media sites in one place. Please share widely:

How is this a revolution?
"What has happened in the last few months, is that we've realized there is a jagged frontier, and some of the earliest claims about the effectiveness of AI have been mixed or not as great as initially claimed."
