Serious analysts and journalists need to be unafraid to snap out of Trump sane washing. Global events right now are a product of things that happen in Trump's head - and nobody controls what happens in Trump's head, including Trump.

A calm and philosophical reflection on the ICE killing in Minneapolis

Epistemic disorientation

It was Hannah Arendt’s view, drawing on Heidegger’s critique of technological modernity, that totalitarianism mobilises drama and terror to de-centre a citizen’s sense of reality.

When J. D. Vance claims that black is white and white is black, the message is that truth holds only until it collides with power. When it does, it must be eradicated.

Might is right

Once truth is eradicated, a clash of narratives remains. Power decides which narrative survives.

If power has chosen against you, your narrative becomes culturally surplus. Persisting with it now constitutes cultural decay, a threat to the social order. You become the enemy.

This is how “might is right” may convert an unlawful killing into a lawful one.

Indecency

A decent society does not expose its citizens to lethal force without taking responsibility for it. It does not ask citizens to accept death without accountability. It does not gaslight citizens into believing that right belongs to whoever carries a badge.

Degradation of enforcement

In a decent society, a law-enforcement agency does not react to non-compliance with the reflexes of a thug.

Imminent threat vs failure to comply

Irresponsible agencies blur the line between firing in self-defence and firing because of failure to comply. One way this happens is when officers place themselves in front of vehicles and treat the ensuing danger as justification.
