Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

In under 1600 words.

OVER A MILLION USERS

DISCUSS SUICIDE WITH CHATGPT

EVERY *WEEK*

what the fuck are we DOING here
Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market.

This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.
I fully believe in the corporate death penalty and believe we would be a better world if OpenAI lost its corporate charter and was forcibly dissolved.

While out on our Halloween evening ICE patrol, we noticed that Red Vault, an adult fashion/fetish/toy store, had a mannequin with an orange whistle around its neck in the store's front window. They also had a sign declaring ICE was not welcome and were giving away free whistles. I love this city.

Liberals when candidates defend trans people: "We can't do this, it's too unpopular."

Liberals when candidates have a nazi ss tattoo: "it's ok, not all candidates are perfect."

Do y'all hear yourselves?!

For folks asking about out of state sheriffs seen at Broadview this weekend—this is from a month ago, it was already happening. We have seen Dodge County deputies on more than one occasion (this man photographed is actually a jail transport officer, however).
Due to state law, ICE detainees are moved from IL out of the state to neighboring states with official detention centers (or, to flights at Gary Airport).

We watched transport officers separate people into sheriff's vans bound for IN and, according to the driver's uniform, Dodge County, WI.

There are a tremendous number of ICE watchers out in Rogers Park this afternoon after some early morning abductions.

People are guarding churches and patrolling alleyways. Ran into Alderperson Hadden. First timers tell us they're primed and ready to use their whistles.

Any trans person who begins their transition today is exhibiting more courage than most people will in their entire lives.

Deleting Facebook, getting rid of your Ring camera, and unplugging Alexa are three concrete things you can do to break the chain of surveillance which will undoubtedly be used more and more by state apparatus to nab you or your neighbors.

Don't be an unwitting Fed or ICE agent. OpSec is solidarity.

“there’s no real difference between an acetaminophen scaremonger like RFK Jr. and an anti-trans obsessive like J.K. Rowling. Neither are doctors, both have been poisoned by a steady stream of online propaganda and disinformation”

When science is thrown out the window, everyone suffers.

To my fellow cishet dudes: when we are quiet about supporting the trans community, the only voices anyone hears are the Charlie Kirks of the world. Don't let accusations of being "performative" or "virtue signaling" shut you up - that's their whole point. Our voices are needed now more than ever.

It feels like the MAGA Epstein conspiracy stuff has been a way of coping with the closeness of Trump and Epstein. And as it becomes clear that the cabal of evil Democrats won't be delivered, and as Trump acts very guilty, the cognitive dissonance is too much.
