This is a serious issue that hasn't gotten much attention yet: There is a ton of DOL-produced workplace literature out there assuring immigrants that it is safe for them to talk to the agency. All of that material is now effectively a trap.

I have watched as a classmate and coworker who was one of just a few black students on a <1000 student campus was stopped by the campus cops, while walking with me, who asked him if he was a student but not me. (I am not black)
An analysis of federal student arrest data “found that Black and indigenous students faced school-based arrests at rates two to three times higher than those of their white counterparts. Among demographic groups, the report found, the arrest rate was particularly stark for boys with disabilities.”
New Report: School Cops Double Student Arrest Rates and Race, Gender Key Factors
Government watchdog reveals students twice as likely to be arrested when officers are present and their race, gender and disability play pivotal role.

“We will hold investigations to identify the neo-cultural Marxists in seats of power all across Washington,” Posobiec said. “We don’t negotiate with un-humans. Because that’s the stakes of this battle: humanity versus un-humanity.”

Bingo. All the ways our society makes us work more than we need to, one thing all do is make it so that we As A People don’t have to be good bosses or managers, just good employees
By any reasonable measure my job is not bad compared with most and still I want to quit constantly
IDK how most people don't feel similarly.. if they do it's no wonder healthcare is tied to employment and we don't have housing and food as a human right because everyone would quit en masse if we did

It’s weird how much this whole thing is premised on, ‘No computer you can’t just paste the image for this that you found and copied, even though it is right! Instead you have to make it look like you didn’t copy the work.’ So many of the problems come from that needless extra last step

5. Stage adaptations started fairly quickly, and kept interest in the book up. Godwin negotiated for a second edition in 2 volumes at high retail prices, which identified Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley as author.
