The proliferation of police body cam [TikTok/YouTube/etc], the Qannon BS/pop culture trope that industrial scale child trafficking is basically happening everywhere all of the time, and every fucking cop show saying "based on real events" has absolutely cooked students' brains.

For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention. The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.
