it's genuinely fascinating to me that "you cannot facilitate a genocide against a people and still expect their vote" is too advanced for some analysts to understand.

Both parties will continue ignoring Americans actual opinions
There’s a funny Politico story showing that the latest polling on AI shows 80-20 in favor of heavy regulations, an absolute slam dunk platform, but Dems are worried about not winning back mask-off tech CEO donors

You don't need to be an anarchist to think that ICE should be abolished
You can be a good governance liberal who thinks that the agency has demonstrated an institutional disrespect for the Constitution, and therefore advocate for unwinding the agency and rolling its functions into a revived INS.

ICE have revealed themselves to be nothing more than the partisan militia of MAGA. When Trump became president, he did not "execute Order 66." They have been yearning for the Day of the Rope since their founding, and all Trump did was give free rein to their basest impulses.

Interesting thing going on with ICE:
They're basically just cops who haven't been trained properly in the arts of Deceiving the Public and using the jargon specific to Police Officers to make themselves seem legally sound.
People are shocked to see them doing what police officers do routinely;

i am always taken by melancholy the day after Christmas, thinking about the great tragedies of history, like the fact that in his long musical career William Shatner never did a cover of Scatman John's 'I'm The Scat Man' where the refrain was, 'I'm the Shat Man'.

I remember the phrase "they can't be allowed to melt back into society" re: the de-Baathification of Iraq after the war there. Like everything about that experience, the attempt was cynical, stupid, and botched. But there really should be a plan about what we do with guys like these in the future.
ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.
Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.
"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.
"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

true. that's bc you've allowed your sense of style to be narrowly defined by fashion brands, instead of thinking about it in terms of cultural history. over the course of the 20th century, many groups have dressed well, even if they didn't conform to fashion trends or bourgeois respectability

This here...this is what should be happening all the time.
And not just with ICE Agents...but with politicians and billionaires too.
Why should people that do this much harm have a right to peace? Why should they have a right to walk a mall unaccosted? To go to a fucking McDonald's? To comfort?

ICE agent recognized out Christmas shopping—throws tantrum when citizens profile him.
"We're trying to prevent you from kidnapping our neighbors," they say.
"I'm not doing anything but walking, leave me alone!" he yells.
"Not right now you're not—but the past 5 days you have."

“There is a greater sin than greed and it sloth,” is an axiom I learned from a shareware developer. Mostly it meant you wanted to reduce the friction between people wanting your product and giving you money. However sometimes the principle of it can work to your advantage in other contexts. Fuck AI.
"people can still download your art from bsky and feed it into AI" if gamer behavior has taught me anything, just one extra button press is more than enough to annoy a MASSIVE amount of people into not making the effort

Even in Scrooge's "are there no prisons" speech he doesn't conceive of opening one himself on a for profit basis.
you think about scrooge and he basically gave cratchit reasonably stable long term employment and paid him more or less enough to raise a family on a single income and he's still a fucking villain. today's billionaires are like 10x worse
