A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

New from me: It's very in vogue for tech bros to talk about "network states," where likeminded people get together to form their own alternative nations, often with crypto fueling the economy.

Yes, this is exactly the brilliance of the Rick Steves analogy. And he ties it to resistance in other places where the banners read "Solidarity" because we can't just fight for our narrow interest, we have to fight for it all.
