As someone who has read an absurd amount of US and global history, I don't know if you can really name anyone who has been worse. The ICE raids and dissembling the pandemic response team months before COVID started secretly spreading alone would have him pretty high up the rankings for worst of all time. Add in everything else and I don't see how anyone could be worse, except for maybe Andrew Johnson for sabotaging Reconstruction and Reagan.

It’s different but clearly comparable…I would think that’s somewhat obvious. I agree that police are already a totalitarian institution that need to be abolished. Just because they already have that totalitarian impulse doesn’t mean it can’t be expanded with new tech such as this. Policing is already an awful institution, it can absolutely be made worse still by technology such as this.

The prevalence of drone operators in conflict zones (wars) the past two decades has made war more impersonal for the aggressors. It lowers their risk and removes that human element that would at least have had the aggressor in that situation usually feel some pang of guilt or remorse or some kind of hesitation-some kind of effect on them from being placed in violent situations and forced to kill someone face to face. There is also the risk of increasing conflict due tosome kind of hesitation-some kind of effect on them from being placed in violent situations and forced to kill someone face to face. There is also the risk of increasing conflict due to perceived lower risk of escalation from drone use. There's obviously a parallel here with policing and robotics-less accountability than the near zero that exists, the lack of a human element and judgment.
