"Just let us build the digital panopticon, bro"
Meanwhile, Trump stopped ICE raids in workplaces and said that he won't go after migrants working in farms and hospitality. How dumb does he think we are?
The actual solution is to modernize our digital systems until illegal labor is impossible.
What’s preventing this is various flavors of retard folk libertarianism, “muh Flock,” “muh national ID mark of the beast,” etc
@DaleBetterton@HabCorpLinguist Lmao, do you seriously think that Iraqis and Lebananese would have just loved to be occupied by America and not resisted at all if not for the dastardly Iranians? Completely unbelievable.
@DaleBetterton@HabCorpLinguist They killed 0 of those hostages and that justifies a war 50 years later, makes total sense, you're not just pawns for AIPAC whatsoever.
I think the fact that the prosecution could not find a single person who knew her to say anything bad about Lindsay Clancy as a mother or even as a person… coupled with the fact that the Clancy family all clearly still support and love her… is what ultimately doomed this case.
There’s a handful of different angles I think the prosecutors could’ve pursued, esp regarding her willful misuse of her prescribed psychotropics (like… why TF wouldn’t you pound THAT home instead of just trying to claim she was barely taking them at all? Erratic usage is literally linked to exasperated side effects, why not treat this as more of a “psychosis from recreational drug use” instead of pretending the drugs weren’t a thing at all?)
But ultimately it was the Clancy family showing up day in and day out, sitting behind her, supporting her, that likely convinced those 11 jurors that something truly terrible happened in that woman’s mind that night and if the people who should hate her more than anything don’t then she’s probably telling the truth about not being in control of herself.
I don’t know, I don’t have any emotional attachment to this case. I just think it’s a tragedy and even if she’s acquitted she’ll still be living in hell for the rest of her life. So I guess I just don’t understand the hyperemotional freak outs so many people are having, on both sides, bc everyone still loses in this absolute nightmare of a situation, regardless of what the jury decides.
