@Deglassco This isn’t new—it’s newly visible. The U.S. has long used surveillance, raids, detention, and force in ways we associate with authoritarian states, just not evenly across society. When those tools begin touching people who were once insulated, it feels shocking. The history shows otherwise. What’s changing is who is being asked to notice.
