Imagine investing the world economy in data centers just to get beaten by a girl with a box of pencils.
From "Frieren" Season 2 ending, animated with colored pencils by Mimei Aoume (she had already worked on Season 1 ending).

glad they're on this. i've noticed this and you probably have too. shattering drivers side car windows appears to be a top and preferred tactic for ICE. even when nothing is happening that makes it necessary or even on the most generous interpretation warranted. it's terror tactic.
Last July, ProPublica documented nearly 50 incidents of immigration officers shattering car windows to make arrests — a tactic experts and former ICE insiders say was rarely used before President Trump began his second term:

They keep inching towards blocking you from downloading videos too. I wouldn't be surprised if they pull that off soon. Broken record etc, back your stuff up. Also if you use a PS3 or Wii-U to play on a Tube TV, they will block that eventually too. Things are speeding up too fast man.

This is the reason why theyre trying to crack down on speech/expression online, and repeal section 230. Its all under the guise of demonizing porn/protecting children but the actual goal is hamstringing peoples ability to do exactly this, counter state propaganda.
I do sort of idly wonder what the impact of everyone having a phone with a camera has done to the tenability of fascist projects like this, especially in the vein this administration is going for - overtly inspired by the 1930s Nazi movement with its very public performances of propaganda.
as @cooperlund.online says, they’re just making content. and a shivering nazi weeping as he has to be helped by protestors away from his failed rally just a few miles away from where folks are enjoying a brisk day of sledding is a propaganda coup

It increasingly seems like many of these ICE goons are masking not because they're worried we'll learn who they are out of uniform and more because they're worried what other uniforms they've worn.
I wonder how long it will take the media to catch on to the fact that ICE’s recruiting spree has effectively deputized every white supremacist hate group out there.

If an admissions committee even suspects you used ChatGPT for your application letter, they'll almost certainly decide not to waste a precious admissions spot on you.
Instead they'll give it to, you know, someone who actually likes to write and knows how to do it.

I have some bad news. One, if you need to use ChatGPT for your graduate application letter, you are not ready for graduate school.
Two, no, not "everyone is doing it" and those who don't do it aren't "losing out." ChatGPT is not an advantage.

Forced face scanning of a U.S. citizen with zero cause, just bald racial profiling. This is tech fascism.
Mubashir and his family came to the United States as refugees from Ethiopia when he was a child, and they all became naturalized citizens in 2019.
Despite being a U.S. citizen, Mubashir was targeted by ICE, assaulted, and detained. Listen to his story:

ICE and MAGA really did bet the farm on all of Minneapolis’s white people going “oh yes, please take away our disgusting, evil non-white-foreigner neighbors, oh thank you so much.”
it’s beautiful that they’ve been proven incredibly wrong about that - may the rest of the country do the same.

The more I think about this, the angrier I get. It takes a particularly virulent strain of sociopathy to sit and let hard-working people serve you a meal knowing that you plan to arrest them and send them off for deportation once they're off of work.

A few days ago, Fox News was whining about ICE agents getting heckled at a Mexican restaurant in Minneapolis.
Meanwhile, in the town of Willmar, ICE agents had lunch at a Mexican restaurant, waited until it closed, then confronted and arrested three workers as they left.

Miller’s miscalculation - the logic of a privileged and sheltered brat - is that violence would pull white folks away from black and brown folks, when in fact it’s done the opposite. And now America’s other cities also know how to face him.
Terror is essential to Miller's project. It's designed to dissuade us from showing solidarity with the immigrants getting removed. Stand in the way of ethnic cleansing and you risk violence yourself.
