The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city. This is not a joke. This is not normal. Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

I'm not convinced Trump is fully aware of everything going on around him. To be fair, I felt that way about Biden, too. Maybe we should be governed by people who have an investment in our future cuz they'll be around for it, too.

Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑

Not a very long path from "Why wouldn't you want the regime to deploy federal troops in your city when it reduces carjackings?" to "Why would you be opposed to the erection of internment camps for deviants when it reduces crime?" And a good chunk of mainstream media will just follow along.

I'm really tired of people so caught up in how things are that they refuse to discuss how things should be. Injustice doesn't somehow become good or right just because it's legal or common. Bad things are still bad, even if they're "just the way things are". Ethics should challenge the status quo.

The reason we're very doom and gloom is that ten years ago it was 100% clear that these state-by-state internet regulations were blatant violations of the 1st Amendment. No one in a million years thought SCOTUS would simply decide "lol, lmfao." Failure of imagination, I suppose.
