Good grief, the only way I know this is not AI is if a lot of credible looking people say they saw it too, and I'll never actually be sure they are not bots.

Some guy said we'll all be doing manual jobs in the future because AI will do all the brainwork. Actually that says, AI isn't ready to do our manual tasks, perhaps will never be trained for it. It means humans are needed to feed the machine. The Minneapolis general strike says we still have power.

1. This short thread is about the issue that dominates almost every aspect of politics, and causes or exacerbates most of our problems: the extreme wealth of a small number of people. Here’s the amazing thing: almost the entire political class aligns with the ultra-rich against the rest. 🧵1/10

What we are seeing in Minnesota is what authoritarianism looks like in real time. Racism, dehumanization, and state-sanctioned violence are tearing at the foundation of this country.

I haven't seen any mention of how Good's life experiences might have informed her decision to drive away from that situation. Any argument to justify his actions this way could surely be tenfold applied in forgiveness to her.

If there's a benefit to this, it may be more media awareness. Getting into the habit of reality checking everything.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.
This could be you.
