The Latino protesters waving the Mexican flag in protests in LA are more justified – and frankly more American – than those who carried confederate traitor flags into Congress on Jan 6th.

An under-remarked detail here is that the protests yesterday weren't IN the city of Los Angeles, but in Paramount where the LAPD doesn't work. So of course the LAPD is saying this about protests IN LOS ANGELES, which weren't the protests everyone saw on TV.

ICE is a much greater threat to this country than illegal immigrants. The current administration ia by far the greatest threat this country faces. The problem is not st our borders. It is in the White House.

Anecdotal, but I'm definitely noticing an uptick in advocacy for violence here. About which I'll say only this: Promoting violence on social media is the work of trolls and fools, those eager to bait others into implicating themselves in the age of surveillance or fools rushing to the gulag.

Been seeing a lot of "Raspberry Pis are terrible!" comments in the Pi feeds, and frankly think it's kind of weird. Pis work great! If a Raspberry Pi seems terrible to you, either it's the wrong computer for the task, or you're letting frustration with Linux convince you it's the hardware's fault.

💥 BREAKING: Ukrainian drones flew out of grain train car hatches and destroyed 13 Russian tanks and more than a 100 armored vehicles and other equipment being transported by the Russian train in occupied southern Ukraine. The hatches appear to have been opened by remote control, again.

Anyone else think that those tanks heading to DC for Trump’s parade aren’t going to be leaving DC anytime soon? I can imagine the conversation easily: “But how do we get the lockdown forces into DC in the first place?”
