"Education" I'm not seeing a lot of education in our higher institutions. The modern US education system is corrupted by our capitalistic culture rendering it a scam. This system is the same system that ICE belongs to.

Most people don’t know about him because the news didn’t consider him important enough to report on, but I know that people who are aware of him definitely care

then give up your smartphone designed by people with comp sci and electronics engineering degrees on an internet network brought to you by people with rf engineering degrees and supported by people with engtech degrees. or expand your worldview and choose a different school/major.

Protest requires making yourself uncomfortable. You can’t go shopping if you’re murdered by ICE.

Ok but that’s not a real protest nor does it apply pressure to anything. It’s literally symbolic

Spending money means boosting the economy which means more money in circulation which means more money that the government uses to continue funding ICE. It’s not symbolic

The money that isn’t spent today is just going to be spent tomorrow. Do you think a few thousand people not spending money is going to put a dent in anything? Economic boycotts and protests work because they don’t have scheduled end dates lol it is LITERALLY symbolic

Asking people not to spend money for an extended period of time is unreasonable. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t matter

i lowk don’t think it’s going to matter between not shopping now and shopping tomorrow. i’m also not just talking about “fun” shopping but also grocery shopping as well. we can’t control where the money going, but we can control how we respond to tense situations.

It literally isn’t unreasonable it just takes preparation which this “protest” did not do. This is symbolic, and if you think this helped fuck with ICE, you’re a child

Well the only way for people to know about him is if we talk about him, correct?

Each no-buy day is a small act to strengthen our collective “muscles.” Americans have a hard time giving up our little treats, so these actions are meant to get us used to mobilizing. And if we get enough people to do it, we’re sending a warning to the government that we’re capable of collective momentum and can do it for longer

One day, on a Friday, and doing nothing but yelling at the air and then going back to not caring for one another AND expecting that a corrupt system will fix that problem for us isn't enough. At this point we need quiet behavioral protest facilitated through locally sustained mutual aid, because public protest is exactly what the system wants as fuel to spin its narrative: a narrative that the system is salvageable if we just lean into it harder even though it only benefits the elites.

The problem is not technology. The problem is technology being weaponized by our social system.

Social media and corporate cloud computing are violating this principle against us to extract our attention and profit from it. THAT is the bigger issue at hand. We can't coordinate when we allow ourselves to be fragmented by algorithms

i didn’t say the problem was technology? i said collegiate studies are necessary to manufacture and distribute the tool you’re using to complain that collegiate studies aren’t necessary. the fact that you allegedly have a graduate degree (or at least have the privilege to have been in school long enough to get one) is not helping your argument that a higher education is useless.

Woah what the hell?? I didn't argue any of those things. I said PRESENT DAY education has BECOME a scam. I'm not criticizing education as a concept. I'm criticizing OUR education SYSTEM.
