"A resistance fighter understands that technology must never be accepted as part of the natural order of things, that every technology— from an IQ test to an automobile to a television set to a computer — is a product of a particular economic and political context and carries with it a program, an agenda, and a philosophy that may or may not be life-enhancing and that therefore require scrutiny, criticism, and control. In short, a technological resistance fighter maintains an epistemological and psychic distance from any technology, so that it always appears somewhat strange, never inevitable, never natural."
– Neil Postman, from his book Technopoly (1993)

Big Grocery’s Hidden Poverty Tax

Reading scholarship on #resistance to #AI — I just want younger people to know, this is different. In my memory, theorists and practitioners didn't feel bound to organize a *resistance* to word processors or gps or email.
Now, maybe we all turned technophobe all of a sudden. But maybe, just maybe, this is not the technological future we should be embracing or even accepting.

"I’ve been pepper sprayed and tear-gassed three times now. I carry a gas mask around with me. I’ve been shoved, threatened, insulted by ICE while wearing my clergy collar, as a white woman. Our neighbors are in hiding -- plenty of whom have a legal right to be in the country, but that doesn’t matter to ICE. They are detaining those with legal status, even Native Americans."
~ Susie Hd, quoted by Holly Berkley Fletcher
"We all owe a debt of gratitude to the resilient and principled stance of the people of Minneapolis and the state of Minnesota who have remained undeterred. They have fought for their neighbors and for themselves. They have stood in proud defense of their city, and their right to peacefully protest. The organizers on the ground have been extraordinary."

"Trump’s ability to bend reality to his will is the foundation of his political success. It’s how he has survived so many moments that would have ended other politicians’ careers.
But it is not working this time.
In what may be the most high-profile failure of the Trump media machine, the American people are not falling for Trump’s lies [about Renee Good's murder].'

“'Abolish ICE' is no longer just a far-left slogan. God knows why Americans reelected Trump — but they clearly didn’t envision masked goons knocking down doors and disappearing people."

"Trump and his enablers have made a grievous miscalculation about the level of support for their dictatorial tactics. A strong majority of Americans oppose what ICE is doing and how it is conducting its operations."

"Let’s go for the gold and disband the Department of Homeland Security. Spread its functions around the rest of the federal law-enforcement apparatus. And put Kristi Noem out of work. ...
The DHS is an extraneous agency, born out of tragedy and political opportunism."

Why Stop at ICE? Let’s Dismantle the Entire Department of Homeland Security.
A recent poll suggests that Americans want to abolish the agency responsible for killing Renee Good. I say we take things one step further—and put Kristi Noem out of work.Charles P. Pierce (Esquire)
"Now they have turned the eye of Sauron even on white women, because these white women are like, I'm going to use my privilege to speak back to the police like Renee Nicole Good did. And they're like, OK, we'll shoot you in the face in order to shut white America down. That's what it feels like to me. They want white America to know if you side with these brown and black immigrants, we're coming for you, too."

"Yeah, no, no, I'm not down with you grabbing the guy who works with me at the restaurant and out of the kitchen and dragging him out or dragging him out of Home Depot. I think they've been surprised at the pushback they're getting from people they presume should be with them should be also fearful of Somali immigrants and fearful of brown people. And they're like, yeah, no, I'm not down with it."

"I think that they've been shocked that in Minneapolis and in other places in Minnesota and in Chicago and other places, the people they just assume are with them, white Americans, a lot of them are like, yeah, no, you can't arrest my neighbor."

TJRS: Trump Year 2: A Sick & Tired America
A recording from The Joy Reid Show's live videoThe Joy Reid Show (Welcome to Joy's House!)
"When ICE is on the rampage, crowds of brave Americans, summoned by texts and whistles, quickly gather to stand against the masked men with guns. As the outrage grows, people of common decency — like the federal prosecutors in Minnesota who chose to resign rather than pervert justice by going after Renee Nicole Good’s wife — are taking a stand.
So what’s happening now is both horrifying and inspiring."
