And that includes stingrays, that includes automatic license plate readers, facial recognition, the LRAD sound cannon that they use at some protests, all of that stuff, you know, for crowd control, all of that stuff is coming from the military and then funneled through that 1033 program and that it ends up in your local police department.
Absolutely.
I mean, left, right, center.
You know, the sad fact is that for the most part, there are elements and agencies of the federal government who do view the people as the enemy.
And obviously, we're seeing that sort of with Trump's recent effort to label different activists as Antifa.
And, you know, he put an executive order out last year saying that they were going to start targeting people who had antibodies.
anti-capitalist views anti-christian views anti-american so on so forth these pretty broad terms that you could drive a truck through and that they're going to use and you know those definitions can be expanded just like we saw again after 9 11 the definition of what a terrorist is expand and expand and expand and so now it's just finally starting to come home where it's a focus on the domestic you know the domestic scene domestic front and so
We're likely to see more of these types of terms, anti-tech violent extremists, anti-American, etc.
And if you get labeled that, I mean, as far as they're concerned, then the feds have the right to come after you.
And as we as we've seen with some of these recent arrests of different activists, whether whatever people think about them protesting ICE facilities, some of these people who were just recently sent to prison in Texas, for example.
were charged with moving magazines, moving pamphlets of information from one place to another, and that was enough for the government to sentence them to prison because they said they were trying to hide evidence.
So the more they broaden the scope of what is an extremist, terrorist, etc., and the more they target this technology we're talking about right now at us, I think that presents a really dangerous scenario, obviously.
And I would also just
caution those left right politically homeless to not play into that narrative because i see this on the internet and i'm sure you have seen this as well where people like to start using the language of the state and calling their so-called apparent enemies whether they right or left they're domestic extremists they're domestic terrorists and the more that we adopt that language the easier it is for them the state the government to use that against us as well so i really do want to caution people like i get it people have strong opinions and that we can feel very
very strongly they are incorrect and maybe even dangerous opinions.
But if we play right into that and say, well, my enemy or the other person with an opposing view, they're an extremist, they're a terrorist, that allows the state to then step in and say, okay, well, you know, you guys want to play that game as well?
Well, we can label you all terrorists.
We can label you all extremists for having the wrong views.
And then that opens the door to prosecutions and to surveillance using this technology we're describing here.
