I think the best thing I'm learning as an adult is to ignore people. When you realize people say & do weird & evil things to get a reaction out of you, you learn that silence is more powerful than proving a point. No response is the loudest response. The moment you respond people start feeling important & think they bigger than the program but I control the traffic
They want you to believe your voice doesn't matter.
Yet in just the last few days:
-LAPD canceled its Flock contract.
-Meta cancelled Muse Image AI after privacy outrage.
-One of the largest planned U.S. data centers was killed (PW Digital Gateway) by local opposition.
The surveillance state isn't inevitable.
It advances when people are apathetic.
It retreats when people fight back.
Public pressure works. Keep pushing.
“This why I don’t like that POC term. Don’t call me no person of color, nigga I’m black. I’m cool on that person of color. Cause people of color also don’t like black people.”
