Enemy Of The State

No no, they want a surveillance system that isn't dependent on buildings full of analysts, who even with advanced tools have a limit to the number of targets they can keep tabs on.

They want something which can make connections between all the disparate datasets they've been building for decades, against the population at large--foreign and domestic. and do it in a way that is accessible to an imbecile (read: upper management).

People see this stuff happening in other countries and think that it will never happen in their country, but this shit always comes home.

There’s already a vast network of flock cameras, tracking your every move, there’s already going to be built-in surveillance systems in cars, and they can already figure out who your friends and family are just by studying whose phones your phone is near every day. They can map out your whole routine, they have absolute shit loads of data on everyone - the problem has always been that there is just so much data to get through that it is virtually useless.

They are already integrating companies like flock and Palantir into the government, now they are gonna start buying up even more controlling interest in AI companies

All of it will be militarized, against you. 

It's not like face-stabbing is likely to spread to nearby houses.

Because I did!

“It only happened once (It hasn’t), they’re targeting CAWPS!!!”

Of fucking course they targeted cops, the cops are the ones failing to actually protect anyone, and the state is allowing unchecked immigration from places that are culturally opposed to the place they’re migrating to. People are tired of it. They have correctly identified the culprits and aren’t just attacking the symptom. They’re taking matters into their own hands to take back their culture and communities, and I wish them all the best.

This is legitimately just a case of op saying “I am going to present this situation in as bad faith as possible, because I am a cranky butthole”

 It’s actually a simple psychological reason that the “rear guard” scenario appeals to men, and it has nothing to do with wanting to be violent, or gain some kind of “glory” while “being released from responsibly”.
