I had seen a video talking about how the military had and can be used to enact violent control, naming a few past events from the past century. I found all of them on Wikipedia, and want to list them here for everyone to get an idea of what happened then, and can happen now. (1/?)

Chat is it a good sign that it took national reporters an entire month to finally pay attention to the third largest metro in the country being invaded

I'm really glad more people are realizing how brutal ICE has been in Chicago but it's really weird to see people talking about Rev Black getting attacked like it happened yesterday and not 3 weeks ago. Like, I'm glad people are catching up! But it's very weird.

Incredible.

Jack Posobiec references the earliest version of antifa -- the anti-fascists in the Weimar Republic who were opposed to the Nazi Party -- as the bad guys.

We're now finding out that as many as 70,000 people had their government IDs provided to prove their ages leaked by Discord. Like I wrote last week, this is an inherent risk (and made greater by a rushed process) of getting platforms to do age checks

Discord says 70,000 users may have had their government IDs leaked in breach

The ID pics had been submitted as part of age-related appeals.

I've seen some vocally anti-AI people recently make an anti-AI post and be surprised there are still pro-AI people following them, and I can explain this;

most pro-AI people think they are somehow the exception. the way THEY are using it, SURELY you would take no issue!

well, we do. so fuck off.

the USA is a fascist country

List of signs that tell you that your country is moving towards fascism: 1. Identification or scapegoats as a unifying cause. 2. Nostalgic lung for an idealized. 3. Disdain for intellectuals and the doctor. 4.Suppression of a free press. 5. Manipulative use or euphemistic language. 6. All dissent is equated with treason. 7. Protection of corporate power. 8. Suppression of labor forces. 9. Normalization of disaster sexism. 10. Contempt for the weak. 11. Obsession with national security. 12. Overfunding of the military. 13. Obsession with crime and punishment. 14. Unrestrained cronyism. 15. Dominant religion is coopted by the regime.

At the Broadview ICE detention center outside Chicago this afternoon, things are (relatively) calm.

A vet-organized protest is planned for 4-6pm. After 6, curfew is in place.

Masked agents enter the building. ~1 month ago we would've been able to photograph them from Beach St, but not anymore.
