This was one of the more diabolical Trump admin moves on immigration; ordering ICE to stop taking biometrics for detained immigrants seeking immigration benefits from USCIS, which meant that the agency would deny their applications by default.

In December 2025, USCIS announced that DHS would stop collecting biometrics related
to USCIS immigration applications for people in its custody. ECF No. 14-2; ECF No. 14-3 at 2-
3. In its press release, USCIS said that going forward DHS "generally will not take biometrics of detained aliens unless they are in removal proceedings and have a pending application or petition filed with the Executive Office for Immigration Review." ECF No. 14-2. That means DHS would continue to collect biometrics only for certain applications for relief, including those that can be made to immigration courts (which fall within the Executive Office for Immigration Review), but not for applications for many kinds of immigration status, including the plaintiffs' applications
(which must be submitted to and determined by USCIS). See 8 C.F.R. § 245.2(a)(1) (adjustment

She looks at the viewer dead-on, eyes more animalistic and fierce than usual. His nude chest is pointed towards the viewer, small breasts above her mastectomy scars. Bright pink squiggles and bursts of life swirl around her in the dark indigo prison as she grabs the metal bars in her hands and readies for her escape back into the wild.

They don't understand art because they believe it is beneath them, why do a thing when the computer can do the thing faster and better? And because they don't care about art, they don't seem to be able to see the flaws in the AI generated output because it looks higher definition and thus better.

And I get the same vibe from AI proponents; They simply don't understand art, and think it's beneath them. They don't understand the appeal, they come from a techbro mindset and think art is a solved equation and anything that isn't photorealistic or extremely high detail is failing at the goal.

One dynamic to be aware of in the current discourse: I do agree that there is sometimes a motte & bailey where people are slut-shaming, only to retreat to concerns around second-order harassment. However, I would like to discuss this dynamic in a different way.

I will get to my main point by 3). To set context: 1) it is very difficult to be heard within some EA, rationalist, & Al safety spaces when you discuss sexism, harm, and harassment. You have to use specific framings and language. You have to be
"precise." You cannot misstep.

Yes, some people are doing a motte & bailey. Some people have also simply felt prompted to start discussing real harms they've been concerned about for months or years. Predictably, these two threads are colliding and blurring in a messy way.
