"Take a moment to look at the inhumanity captured in this extraordinary photo running on the front page of tonight's Minneapolis Star Tribune. It shows federal immigration agents immobilizing a protester on the ground and spraying chemical irritant directly into his face. The scene reminds me of the brutality used against civil rights protesters in the 1960s. We look back at those old photos and wonder how the authorities could have behaved so savagely; many years from now, young Americans will look at these photos from 2026 and wonder how anyone could have justified shooting a woman in the head as she tried to drive away, arresting 5-year-old schoolchildren on the street, or holding a man down and spaying chemicals into his face.
Thanks to the Star Tribune reporters and photographers for documenting this work; they create accountability, they make democracy work, and they make all of us in journalism proud."

If Manu Moreale had chosen to blog about the specific moral false dichotomy that he came across instead of reaching for the most ridiculous example imaginable, he wouldn’t have half of the IndieWeb questioning his moral judgement.
Just blog about real stuff! No one will get lost in the meta-noise of bad examples, and we can have real conversations about real things. There’s no reason to hide behind made-up stuff. Why turn to an analogy when the real deal is right there?

This post bugs me on multiple levels. Like why the shit would you reach for what he did as an example? I can think of a billion other examples of Godwin's law. Like I said elsewhere, I will never understand why oppression and oppressive acts is always a fucking intelectual masturbation exercise for these tech people. Trust me bro, not once did I read your example of Godwin‘s law and think, you know what? This really has some intellectual heft!

The situation in Minneapolis is not like anything we’ve seen before.
It’s not just an uptick in raids.
It is a full-scale military occupation, confronting you wherever you go.
You can’t drive more than a couple blocks without seeing roving bands of cars with tinted windows containing masked men in full military equipment:
helmets, balaclavas, long guns, tactical equipment, crowd control munitions.They pull up to bus stops, leap out, grab a brown person, shove them in the car, then speed away.
They don’t check papers.
Some people have been held in detention centers for weeks before it came out that they were US citizens.

We're in a cool new space too: the Jupiter on Burnside. Our 60s mall era is dead, long live our 60s motel era.
I'll miss the mall but it'll be nice to run an event somewhere with furniture and internet.
