“There is no evidence to show that migrants are spreading disease,” Dr. Paul Spiegel, who directs the Center for Humanitarian Health at Johns Hopkins School of Public Health told journalist Maggie Fox of NBC News. “That is a false argument that is used to keep migrants out.”
Awesome, we have a (albeit stupid as fuck) assertion. Now you get a chance to provide evidence, or in your case "ever dense."
Prompt questions for the LLM you get to think for you:
If socialism is bad, why are public roads a thing? Or the existence of the internet? Or publicly-funded cancer research? Or publicly-funded fire departments?
Do you want to pay more for roads and fire protection? Do you want your rare disease to not have a treatment because you're not personally wealthy enough to solely fund research for a cure?
You realize you pay taxes, right? You contribute a small amount of your income (so small you're not paying for the amount you benefit from, much less for anyone else) and we bundle that up to pay for shit individuals can't afford themselves. And we don't raise the cost just because some selfish asshole whose boots you lick wants a bigger cut because having more than everyone else still isn't enough.
You're a parasite cheering on bigger parasites while you starve to death for their benefit.
This is the eternal problem. We end up coming up with bandaids because we can't get real solutions in place. And some people oppose the bandaids on the principle that we should implement the real solutions, even though that is more difficult. Bandaids are necessary to stem the bleeding and sometimes they're the only solution that happens, but "perfect is the enemy of good" and all that.
A good example is can refunds. Homeless and poor people collect cans to get the refunds. People complain about homeless people digging in the trash for cans or milling around stores that offer the refunds. It wouldn't be necessary if we had universal basic income, affordable housing, free drug treatment programs, jobs programs, mental health care, universal health care, etc. But people don't want to spend money on those, so it's can collection and everything that comes with it.
Basic internet access should be a free service and recognized not just as a human right but as a necessary service in order to get even the most basic services in our society. The phone tree now tells you to check the website and chat with the AI chatbot on the website. Some websites even tell you to use mobile instead. Government benefits programs are increasingly online. But Senator Grifter got a lot of money from Comcast in his last election bid, so here we are.
Glad to see the ignorati breaks his silence to let us know that measles are a-ok! How dare anyone complain about preventable diseases spreading and compromising the health of our neighbors?!? I have a right to knowingly infect other people! Who says I can't drink and drive? Nuclear reactor in my basement! FREEEDOM!!!
If you don't want to experience responsibility, you can just leave society. And you won't hear anyone complain, both because you'll be out of earshot and everyone will being cheering.
The irony here is that PPB is the last organization in Portland that would support leftists, protestors, and moral human beings over right wing fascists. PPB has a history of tipping off Proud Boys and giving them free rein on the streets. The original consent decree was because PPB seems to love to assault or kill anyone experiencing a mental health crisis, exactly the people MAGA would cheer getting stomped. They used Proud Boy memes in their training slides.
This is the Trump DOJ claiming that fascist cops aren't fascist enough.
The main thing I was trying to point out is that the phone absolutely did not unlock nor give access to whatever data.
Well, by your own description, it is unlocked in the sense that the agents could do the factory reset to get full access to a GUI on the device. It didn't give them access to his data, but that's beside the point. They entered the duress code. They could have also chosen factory reset. It's not what they wanted, but they had the power to do so. And the charge doesn't reflect a failure to unlock the phone, so it doesn't really matter anyway.
If nothing else, the technicality that he didn't enter the code himself means that they destroyed the property, not him. And despite the data being deleted, it did unlock the phone and provide them access to what was on it when it rebooted, so he did comply.
But yeah, [insert I should buy a boat meme with "I should install Graphene OS" free advertising here].
It doesn't really matter at this point. The damage has been done, which was the point. Musk got more of his subsidies. The people got screwed. Local non-profits and server providers lost funding and went under or severely cut back. Matching funds were lost. Millions already spent in anticipation of the infrastructure needed to utilize more funding were wasted.
But hey, at least those undeserving poors didn't get broadband or digital literacy training or better access to quality education! Only the undeserving wealthy get those!
That leaves us with a ridiculous result, but that doesn’t mean it’s illegal.
I feel like it should be illegal. It's a violation of the constitutional right to equal protection under the law for citizens to not have government attorneys who are ostensibly working for the good of the people. It's denying justice to the country through negligence. Of course that isn't how things work in our society, but from a letter of the law perspective, a just SCOTUS would rule in such a way that the president wouldn't be able to subvert justice this way.
"You guys..."
One guy leaked the financial records...that Trump said he wanted to release.
But yeah, that was totally all of "us," that vague collection of imagined enemies where you group everyone you hate together and pretend they're all the same.
Your sportsball approach to politics is just self-humiliation. You're not even on the term you identify with.
If Trump can just fire the appointed attorneys without having his own going through the official process, it makes the ability of the courts to appoint someone completely useless. And why couldn't the court just re-appoint the attorney every time Trump fires him?
You missed that they didn't just get access to the data on immigrants. They got access to private data of citizens.
Also, immigrants who work jobs in the US pay into social security and pay taxes for everything the employer reports to the IRS (which is a lot), and they're not able to get paid out of social security, so they were literally subsidizing your social security and paying taxes.
I'd try to figure out if you're stupider than you are hateful, but it doesn't matter either way.
"Our customers control their own data and manage access to that data. When Palantir employees are granted access to a customer’s dataset, it is solely to further the goals of the fascist surveillance state and to.crush human faces under our jackboots, forever."

Bureaucracy is a weapon wielded by the malicious as well as the indifferent. We'll violate human and civil rights and shrug and say we had a staff shortage, so it's not our fault.
The default should be (and was naively believed by many to be) that if you can't provide due process, you shouldn't be detaining people. But due process only matters to people who want justice. The Trump administration only wants vicious cruelty and unregulated corruption and unrelenting profiteering.
And they'll be the same as our resident bootlicker, screaming "you just don't want the laws enforced," when you point out that due process is the law.
"No PERSON shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any PERSON be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation."
We get that you don't consider an immigrant to be a person, but you only deprive yourself of your own humanity when you try to dehumanize others. The VERY FUCKING CLEAR language of the GODDAMN CONSTITUTION says you and your fascist idols are VERY FUCKING WRONG.

Nah, MAGA is a moral health issue. Any mental damage they experience as a result is self-inflicted and voluntary.

The US under Trump is already a mass grave for human, civil, and constitutional rights, so it wouldn't be surprising, sadly.
And the supervisors and officials who enabled and encouraged such behavior.
