This is American government sanctioned snuff porn and should be called that by as many folks as possible. It's also a way, as you mentioned, to condition brutality in a military. Roman Legion's 'decimation' was one such way. A cohort or century accused of a crime would be divided into groups of 10.👇

I was in San Francisco 30 years ago and took BART to Oakland just for the ride. I was in the front car so went to peek into the driver's cabin... and saw nobody! 😲 When I got off the train I waited for it to leave to see if the driver was in the rear car and again nobody! Is BART still driverless?

Are the grey things on the outside wall of the station passive heat exchangers? In architecture they a called Trombe Walls, after the first person to implement the design. Convection moves the air from vents in the bottom on the inside of the building to vents in the top leading back inside.

"Okay, we need a detector that's a cubic kilometer in size for this experiment... hmm." 🤔 They found a brilliant solution and they did it 'on the cheap'. A lot of their budget was probably devoted to the logistics of building the detector in one of the most remote and hard to get to places on Earth.

That was a targeted attack! 🧐 He's seen in polls that Latino folk have justly abandoned him so he's lashing out at the highest concentrations of them in a state he hates. There are no guardrails left so maybe he's considering nuking them himself and blaming Iran.

As my favourite fictional master of discernment puts it... “Mediocrity knows nothing higher than itself; but talent instantly recognizes genius.” • Sherlock Holmes Mediocracy is the root of all evil because those who can't see talent or genius will attempt to destroy what they don't understand. 🧐

I watched that whole sad affair happen in real time. I worked with Assange in the 2000s on secure tools for whistleblowers, activists & journos in unfriendly places. I followed his Wikileaks escapades out of 'professional' interest. When he started getting famous I told him to watch his every move.
