I would say I don't want to speak for the group. I'm here speaking for myself. But right now, I mean, honestly, the most urgent thing that is in your face, on tape, easiest to see and understand are the people being nabbed out the streets without any due process. And thank Thank you, Tim.
You have been on this in a way that, you know, you humanize it, put a lens on it, talk about this person that got shipped off to El Salvador. And this is deliberately a complex issue that Trump chose to divide the pro-democracy coalition. You know, like I see these many debates happening. You know, is this an immigration issue? Is it a speech issue? How about it's just a basic issue? Sure.
But as a basic thing, we have to know the reason people are being picked up. And if Marco Rubio wants to get up and say, well, actually there's two with this one tough student. You know, I'm really lasered in on this because right now there's two different explanations coming from this administration, right? Like you had the spokesperson come out and say, well, something, something terrorism.
Und dann hat Marco Rubio eine Kamera in seinem Gesicht und hat gesagt, wenn du ein Student-Aktivist-Lunatik bist, werden wir deine Visa überwachen und wir werden nach Hunderten von dir kommen. Was ist das? Ist es Terrorismus oder wir mögen nicht, was du sagst? Weil wenn es Terrorismus ist und das ist wirklich, worauf sie sich bewegen, um viele Dinge zu tun, erzähl mir, was sie getan hat.
If there is this terroristic threat on campuses, I need to know exactly what she did that you're tracking so that we can stop this from happening in other places. But if this is like you just don't like that she showed up at a protest, you didn't like her out bed, you didn't like the tattoo that somebody had, then say that. Because I need to know
Wir alle haben das Recht zu wissen, welche Tattoos okay sind. Welche Wörter sind okay zu sagen, sonst wirst du aus Louisiana oder El Salvador oder irgendeinem anderen legalen Black Hole, wo niemand die Regeln kennt.
Und wir könnten eine Debatte darüber haben, was die Regeln für die Menschen hier in den Studentenvisas sind. In der Sonne, im Licht des Tages.
Well, if she is a threat, if there is a reason for them to hunt her down like this in the plainclothes, like, tell us, right? Like, this is where I think we need to put a little bit more of the burden on them.
To be like, what is the reason? Because we are going to have debates about whether, you know, what free speech, you know, what degree is it allowed or is this immigration? But where I think there is the strongest possible ground is like, tell us the reason, put it in writing. und zeigen uns, was die Anforderungen sind, weil sie es tun, ohne irgendwelche grundlegenden Schritte.
Und das ist wirklich unglaublich für mich, weil es wahr ist, wenn sie es diesen Menschen tun können, können sie es anderen Menschen tun. Sie können es den US-Bürgern tun. Also die US-Bürger sollten besser anfangen. Der beste Weg, um deine Rechte zu schützen, ist, sie im Moment zu trainieren. Und das ist einer dieser Zeiten.
We always knew that there was going to be mistakes made in any amount of deportation raids, things that they did. I think some of this is that they're just not getting the numbers they wanted, and so they need to go after easy targets.
But when you think about, I don't want to get super dark here, but what the possibility of AI being sicked on social media and tracking people's pictures and getting things wrong... Das ist wirklich ein Potenzial, um aus der Kontrolle zu springen. Und so, wie du weißt, nur das Ding mit den Tattoos, das scheint so offensichtlich. Viele Leute haben Tattoos, richtig? Was ist erlaubt?
Was wird jetzt als Gang-Sign verfehlt? Was ist die Liste der approved Content? Ja, genau.
Well, I do think she's easy. Like, I'm just gonna do this perspective as a woman here. Like, she's an easy person to pick up off the street, right? Unless you were prepared for that moment. And again, like, maybe she threw smoke bombs into a window. I don't know what she did, but this is part of the problem, is that they're keeping us in this, like, dark room with no facts, no information.
But she's an easy pickup, right? And they're gonna go after easy targets.
We saw this with some of the groups that were putting the names and faces of people engaged in DEI in the government before Trump came into office. There's lots of lists that have been made. And so just like people often ask, like, how bad is it? How close to authoritarianism are we? And you want to say like, OK, like we still have room to fight.
But like if you want to evaluate this question, if you were in this public political media space, think about the steps that you've probably already taken. um dich über ein paar Jahre zu verändern. Ich denke an meine Karriere. Ich habe meine Karriere völlig verändert, in Bezug auf das Adapten. Ich erzähle nicht meinen Kindern, Eltern, Freunden, was ich tue, ohne dass ich sie wirklich kenne.
Ich nehme ein paar persönliche Sicherheits- und Sicherheitsstrategien. Ich poste nicht mehr viel auf Instagram. Ich kensuriere mich selbst aus der Befreiung. but also to preserve my ability to fight. You know what I'm saying? I don't know if you've taken steps like that, but I think you have to.
Yeah, definitely.
Ja, im Minimum versucht jeder, vorsichtig zu denken über die Umgebung, zu wissen, was nach Januar 6 passiert ist, zu wissen, was die Bedrohungen sind, die einfach ständig da sind. Ich meine, es ist nur dieser Geräusch von der Exekutiven Ordnung jeden Tag. Haben wir Exekutiven Ordnungen jeden Abend, die Individuen auf einem persönlichen oder organisationalen Niveau konzentrieren?
