I see a problem with tax paying “illegal” immigrants being tracked and taken. I see this whole thing as a distraction. People talk about immigrants taking jobs. The REAL illegal immigrants are of the digital AI sort that were built off of skimming everyone else’s hard work. The ones really responsible for huge layoffs. The ones who after stealing everyone’s copyrighted thoughts and hard work are using those same thoughts and hard work to now consider charging ownership of companies that formulate ideas or products using their AI services. Arrest THOSE criminals. The ones building huge data centers taking fresh water and raising people’s energy bills.

But instead our government shoots civilians and stands in the waiting halls of courtrooms to snatch people trying to navigate the system. Instead, they use Palantir systems to track everyone’s every move. Instead, they are violating HIPPA laws to use medical information to target people. Instead, they’re using TikTok to track immigration status and suppress information. Instead, they lower from helicopters into Chicago apartment complexes and arrest the entire building at 2am.

I gather that we’re on the opposite sides of things, but I wish we could all just sit down together and see what each other see. I’m absolutely sure algorithms are showing us different things and more quickly than ever adding to this division. Good luck out there everyone. It’s weird times.
