One of the themes of our new police state is the sheer lack of professionalism. They can't do the basics, and when challenged, double down. A dysfunctional organizational culture deeply suspicious of the society they are tasked with controlling.

They misidentified the intern. The judge told them they had misidentified the intern. But instead of double checking, they took that as an affront to their authority. So they surrounded the judge's car and threatened to smash the windows to get to the intern.

They had misidentified the intern.

The part where they threatened to break a judge’s car windows should be a bigger story … they feel comfortable treating judges this way, which means they are being told that they can do literally anything to nearly everyone

roblox ceo: we are innovating ways to get kids addicted to gambling
Roose: Would you ever put a prediction market inside Roblox — like, let kids bet with their Robux and say, “I bet he’s gonna steal a Tung Tung Tung Sahur?” Newton: Or, “I bet he’s not gonna Dress to Impress.” Baszucki: We would — I think we would have to do that — once again, I’ll share some of the complexity. Every single country in the world has different legislation around loot boxes and kid gambling. And so we would have to be — it sounds very fun and obvious. Like, I love that — Roose: Oh, to be clear, I think this is a horrible idea. Newton and Baszucki: (laughter) Roose: I was just interested if you were thinking about it. Baszucki: Well, I actually think it’s a brilliant idea if it can be done in an educational way that’s legal. And so, imagine no free Robux, no free prizes, just a game called the Dress to Impress Predictor, where it’s not like trying to get kids’ money or anything like that. I would be a big fan of it.
