That’s great, but by the time it takes for the wrongs to be righted, people are arrested on trumped-up charges and their lives are being ruined - if nothing else, by the bills the legal representatives they have to retain to fight the administration send them.
Being proven right in court at the cost of ending up skint is a pyrrhic victory, and that’s exactly what the Trump regime is counting on: most people prefer not going out into the street to film the ICE Tontom Macoute doing their dirty work than risk being thrown into the slammer and losing their children’s inheritance in attorney fees.
Just the sheer waste of human resources is insane. This is all work going into GOP bullshit while China develops technology and thier people. The solution to many of our problems is taxing the ever living fuck out of the rich (especially the ones with billions around AI) and reinvesting it but the entire west refuses to do it.
China invests in modern transportation and clean energy generation.
US invests in violence and artificial general intelligence.
Which model will come out on top? Difficult to say. Historically speaking, the most violent usually dominates. For those of us who dream of a better future for humanity, the Chinese model is obviously preferred.
