You only have to go back a few generations in my family to find Irish people forced to leave their homeland because British colonialism manufactured a famine and made it impossible to stay. It destroyed the region I descend from.
It's the literal reason I'm English.

Today I met Tony, a local postman who's served our community for over five years.
It’s time to bring Royal Mail into public ownership so the service is available to all and everyone gets a Tony of their own!
Over the busy Christmas period, make sure you thank your postie!

Man I am getting mad and exhausted having to explain fake animal videos made by AI to my parents, who think they just found a funny video. Always a weird dance of “how do I explain this and not make them feel stupid”

It is not a stretch at this point to say that, if you are using a Ring doorbell, you are an ICE collaborator.
Amazon readily provides data to LEOs and ICE.
Don't want to be an ICE collaborator? Then don't use Ring.
