One thing sort of flying under the radar is the Fort Bliss aspect. CBP/DHS has a large detention camp (Camp East Montana) where detainees have been dying and the Army seemingly isnt investigating despite being on base land. And now the DoD is lending CBP lasers it used near or on the base.

Ai was created to fool the Turing test, so all it does is trick you into believing it's thinking. It's the one thing it does well.
Also I’m sorry but I don’t think this is Claude developing a personality or ethical values. It is *simulating* those things because that is what humans value and reward. The programmers are falling for their own Clever Hans trick!

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

A key thing about “mass deportation” is that it doesn’t work so you go from mass deportation to mass imprisonment without cause and sometimes to other more final solutions

this is incredibly frustrating. By framing this as a policy demand Dems are aiding a disinformation campaign that is intended to confuse the public about what is constitutionally required.

Easily demagogued and propagandized
And the trend goes both ways, by the way.

The US government is telling Americans to hate Europeans and Canadians. And many have dutifully changed their opinions.

The NYT can't be bothered to mention to readers that the new TikTok owners have a long history of not just repeated privacy violations, but overt support for anti-democratic right wing extremism. Just isn't of interest to the authors.

Nonviolence is, in fact, working. This administration is weaker than it was a year ago. More and more of the public is becoming galvanized against it; its agents are being impeded.
Do you honestly think people in the civil rights movement and other nonviolent movements faced no violence themselves? They practiced nonviolence because it works, because the oppressor wants a shooting war, which is the war it will win
How's your non-violent working Mr Gandhi stancil? They will kill each and everyone of you right if they had the chance and you will still be writing Kumbaya.

ICE got plenty of money when Chuck Schumer folded and now they're saying fuck you. What a shock. If anyone continues to fund the government at the end of the month they are Republican.

The thing that really makes Minneapolis different, other than the fact that they straight up murdered someone, is that they've dropped all pretense that this is just about immigration. The state has declared war on its own people, or at least those people who live in cities.
