Well as far as concrete actions I’m not sure what they will do. But I do know Russia is certainly a big fan of taking advantage of chaos, and this strike works in Russia’s favor by helping delegitimize international order and rule of law even more, because the US (and Israel) acting unilateraly, illegally, and hypocritically weakens their ability to meaningfully call out Russia for similar behaviors later on.

Even if they are tied up now in Ukraine this makes it easier for them to act with less constraint when they see fit (yes I know, they have been acting without constraint already but they can always get worse)

Also wondering how this will change the plans and behavior of other big global players like China and India in the longer term. Preamble to WW3 or just a new era of heightened millitarism worldwide?

He’s so peaceful, he’s definitely getting the Nobel AND getting into heaven now guys

This is going to spiral out of control. The whole Middle East is going to suffer from this. How is Russia going to react? What are the domestic repercussions going to be during an election year?

No love for the Ayatollah’s regime but this is a disaster. This admin has such limited forethought they will make the Bush admin look like geniuses in retrospect

Have any members of congress or state legislatures begun proposing bills to make this sort of surveillance system illegal?

This is true, but it will be a real miracle if we even end up with AOC vs Vance instead of Newsom vs Vance

CBS is simping for fascists

Abandon all of these platforms and any others that associate in any way with Palantir or Thiel

“You have five new unread product recommendations from your favorite Meemaw. Enable push notifications now so you never miss an advertisement from a deceased loved one!”

Dump these tech bros and CEOs in the goddamn ocean. They are speed running the enshittification of all of human experience and reality

This shitbag needs to be “totally incarcerated!”

You know what else is “concerning”? The fact that “private prison groups” are allowed to exist in the first place.

“My home is safe from climate change, Im not even close to the ocean!”

insurance company stops covering homes in your area at all due to increase in wildfire risk

Irrelevant losers.

Exactly. Probably too rational of a system for the US of A to ever implement though (along with other reasonable ideas like abolishing the electoral college, expanding the House of Representatives, etc)

At this point we basically need a whole new Congress for it to redeem itself.

On a related note, here’s a novel idea: If Congress is unable to pass a budget both houses are dissolved and all members are forced to retain their seat through a special election.

Oh no, ICE is sad that everybody hates them for murdering people in the streets and putting kids in concentration camps :( Guys you’re being really mean.

How about you grow a spine and quit? Oh wait, if you had a spine you never would have joined.

Get prepared for “low morale” the rest of your lives motherfuckers. You’ll never outrun the shame and hate, traitors. I hope you never find peace.

Protestors want a database of ICE to hold them accountable for their crimes.
