  • ICE Is Now Wandering the Streets, Scanning People's Faces to Check If They're Citizens

  • I have many audio recordings of them not just saying "OK" is the problem

  • ICE Is Now Wandering the Streets, Scanning People's Faces to Check If They're Citizens

  • Trust me, I think they did everything they could to be as obnoxious as possible. Do audio record though

  • ICE Is Now Wandering the Streets, Scanning People's Faces to Check If They're Citizens

  • CBP is relentless in its mission to safeguard the nation’s borders and the privacy of all citizens. CBP’s biometric facial comparison technology is hosted within a secure cloud-based environment and does not store biographic data for any travelers. CBP retains U.S. citizen photos for no more than 12 hours after identity verification and only for continuity of operations purposes.

    Is what they claim. What you saw may have been about non-citizens

  • They store the data from everytime you enter and exit the country. For citizens they claim to delete that data after a couple days- but I would not be too confident in that. So if you are a citizen ALWAYS opt out of biometric entry and exit. I've multiple times been told it is not an option, then being forced to wait 10 minutes- harassed about why I want to opt out, then it suddenly becomes an option. This is despite CBPs policy that you cannot be penalized for it. I have several audio recordings of this happening because I noticed how much of a pattern it was.

  • UK is now also doing the same

  • JD Vance slammed for saying he hopes his Hindu wife Usha will ‘join Christianity’ at Charlie Kirk event

  • That's how religion works. It tends to inform people's morality

  • Tis a silly place

  • Then is an absolute monarch capitalist? It is fundamentally a different system to have a state merged with corporation as compared to have them divorced. To deny that is to be intentionally obtuse.

  • JD Vance slammed for saying he hopes his Hindu wife Usha will ‘join Christianity’ at Charlie Kirk event

  • What the article is about

  • JD Vance slammed for saying he hopes his Hindu wife Usha will ‘join Christianity’ at Charlie Kirk event

  • This I kinda don't get, in that this is probably the most vanilla thing you'd expect to hear from basically anyone of any religion about their spouse not following it.

  • JD Vance slammed for saying he hopes his Hindu wife Usha will ‘join Christianity’ at Charlie Kirk event

  • Did you see what he said?

  • Tis a silly place

  • If the capitalists are in charge of the state, they are the state. So it is not privately owned, it is state owned, the state just doesn't serve the populace. That's not capitalism.

  • Tis a silly place

  • the large firms and key industries are overwhelmingly publicly owned and planned

    To not too dissimilar an extent as modern Russia

    the working class is in control of the state.

    Do you believe this for North Korea? If so, why not Russia?

  • Tis a silly place

  • Except that is not the principle in either country. There are plenty of cases where the state is in principle in control, or actually in control. Russia, similar to other economies, such as fascist Italy or China is structured in such away where you can exist as a "private" company as long as you ultimately bow to the state. You could also put many of the gulf states into that club. If socialism is not "when government does stuff" then capitalism is not "when rich people"

  • Tis a silly place

  • But it does not meet the definition of capitalism you gave. I agree its also not entirely socialist. It's almost like its not a binary, most economies are mixed. The US is also not purely capitalist.

  • Permanently Deleted

  • People do that with people they dislike too

  • Tis a silly place

  • Tis a silly place

  • What is ownership? If I say you own a car, but take it and drive it whenever I want, even if you may own it- I control it. Given that context, is modern Russia socialist or capitalist?

  • Tis a silly place
