The Left Won't Embrace Explicitly and Overtly Fascist Technology That Destroys the Water and the Air and Our Very Minds for the Profit of the Worst Most Fascist People Alive and Other Core Definitions of What It Means to be on the Left

Private equity firms are investing heavily in new AI data centers, but local communities are finding ways to fight back.
Canβt verify this but frankly it explains a lot.
Just unspeakably cruel

Finneas is better at political messaging than 99% of the Democratic consultants in DC.
Officer accidentally discharges rifle during search at Lake Nona Middle School, Orlando Police say
As of last night, The Remix Way has distributed 18,200 hot meals this week. It's been an absolutely enormous, all volunteer-run effort. We are exhausted but we've done it because we deeply love & care for our neighbors and want them to know they have not been abandoned or forgotten β€οΈ

Hey has anybody heard anything about support or relief efforts from the NFL franchise to whom we gave $2 billion that we could have spent burying power lines instead?
Recall that Melissa Hortman and her husband were murdered not long ago by a fake cop who showed up at their door looking like this guy
Looking at the mug shots Bondi posted of folks who allegedly impeded ICE officers... I'm reminded me of some of the iconic 1960s images of 'criminals' from counter sitins and freedom rides

So instead of MEETING WITH THEM
they ARRESTED THEM
?!!
βIf this technology had existed in earlier decades, it would have been used to track civil rights activists, LGBTQ+ patrons visiting gay bars, women trying to vote, or enslaved people escaping bondage. None of those acts were considered βlegalβ at the time.β
NEW: The FBIβs search warrant, which sought 2020 election ballots, tabulator tapes, digital data and voter rolls from Fulton County, GA, marked what experts described as a significant escalation in President Donald Trumpβs breaking of democratic norms.
Think about it like this. This ICE agent was on camera and unmasked β fulfilling one of three "demands" Democratic leader Chuck Schumer just issued in order to agree to save Republicans and give DHS even more money.
And he was still threatening to kill someone.
Every word about this CoreCivic child prison is a gut punch. Reminds me of fact that Mississippi journalism scion Charles Overby made so much money as a director of that prison corp, which wasnβt reported here until @mississippifreepress.org dared to:

Protesters wanted to draw attention to the detention of a 5-year-old boy from the Minneapolis area at the Texas ICE facility. They were met by state troopers who used pepper spray to disperse the crowd.

I want you to stay in Nashville and freeze in your house for 4 days without power.

The Democratic Party leadership's failure to honestly and with integrity propose any policy solutions that will address these issues is a moral and strategic catastrophe.
Most of Parkwood got new metal electrical poles this summer. It's likely why most of us had power the whole time even thought trees fell everywhere.
Infrastructure is safety. We need buses and power, not Cameras and tanks.
Nashville snow clearing policy showing Central Business District as a priority.
Nashville Snow Route map. Primary routes are concentrated downtown.
Itβs almost like itβs designed that way π« . Good thing only tourists pay the hotel tax.
As a reminder while over half of Nashville has lost power over the last three days and over 150k are still without.
Hotels downtown are cashing in on disaster capitalism as our local government abandons infrastructure for entertainment and tourism.
The problem with symbolic compliance isnβt just that they fall short of ending violence.
Itβs also that people duped by the symbols will switch sides to defend the oppressor, emboldening them to become more violent and violate more civil rights than before.
