CIA has been destabilizing and puppeteering governments around the world. Why are you so steadfastly assured that they wouldn't meddle in the US?
Not saying there is proof, but we just found out Ukraine blew up the Russian pipeline so it seems weird to just squash debate at the 'that's too crazy to ever happen'. Way crazier things have happened/are constantly happening.
Any hope for DACA? I get a consultation every few years but they always tell me i'll have to leave the country for consulate appointment and possibly not be allowed back in.
Do you have DACA already? I've had DACA since it's beginning but just this week was approved for my green card via adjustment of status through marriage.
The only caveat for me was needing to do Advance Parole before hand, otherwise I'd have to also do consulate interview.
Everyone always says that tech doesn't need unions because of the ability to negotiate. Doesn't seem to be working out well for the industry as a whole.
We have basically the same problem as UPS/Auto industry -> no trickle down.
Top 3 auto companies set to make 32 Billion this year. -> 580,000 employees
Apple profit is 250 bill -> 164,000 employees
Women can call more of the shots in places where it is legal like Nevada or other countries. Not saying it's a perfect system but the alterntive so far has been a trade that is controlled by criminals, bad customers, and law enforcement.
Not sure why you assume this would be the case and it also isn’t really all that true [0], nor has it been true historically in societies with legal prostitution nor is it true in other industries with many women frontline workers (like the makeup industry, obviously not that similar but I think is somewhat representative).
That’s not often true in sex work relying on a venue, and certainly not nevada, and the few women run organizations have the same power dynamics and labor problems as all the others
Should really include sex workers in these discussions
All this conjecture that its exclusively a male run coercive trait exacerbating anything
Making something illegal also weaponizes the state against an entirely new group of people. It's not something to take lightly. The FBI was just found to have framed four muslim men for a terrorism plot to bomb a synagogue. This is what happens when you make new crimes and incentivize our broken forces.

Er, are you arguing that “bombing people” is a new crime invented to weaponize law enforcement against Muslims, or does your example have nothing to do with your argument?
This is what happens when you hire a ton of investigators to fight a sort of crime that only happens once in a blue moon. They start fabricating crimes to justify themselves. They might even do this unintentionally, since the line between prodding somebody into revealing their true intentions can become blurred with encouragement to do the thing.

"undermines the privacy of people who interact with the criminal justice system and compromises the integrity of ongoing investigations."
Crazy how dishonest this response from the police is. Public buildings have restricted zones that the public cannot enter, they are clearly defined by the law, such as a public lobby vs someone's office.
