  • I think we should have open borders. That said, not everyone does. Many more people have a problem with citizens being detained because the supposed focus of these raids is people in the country illegally (and supposedly people who are criminals).

    Talking about how they’re detaining citizens highlights that the actions are indiscriminate, and that really they want to target any brown people. It shows they don’t care about the law. It’s also telling people in a protected class, “hey, they can come for you too.”

    I don’t need anymore evidence of that, but some people do. And when we stop calling it out it becomes de facto acceptable.



  • Thanks for sharing. Although I’m an enthusiastic open source user, I haven’t written any code of significance, so I’m not aware: has anyone made a license where use is restricted to individuals and democratically controlled organizations? I’m picturing that would allow for some degree of profit motive while encouraging things like worker co-ops and excluding venture capital controlled entities.
