I'm not sure I understand how this undermines the point that constant surveillance of public spaces is bad. It's bad when the cameras are on cop cars. It's bad when the cameras are on lampposts. If the cameras are verifiably limited and cops can't access them, I have no problem with that!
Intellectual diversity only matters if we exclude some things. We don't need professors who think the earth is flat, and we also don't need professors who think immigration is bad or genocide is good or climate change is imaginary. Those people need to get fucked, not get tenure.
That's usually true. But as far as I know, no one is replacing cops with cameras, so what you're really getting is both. If there are verifiable ways to ensure that the cameras have limited triggers and are never available to cops, then sure, that's cool. I don't think anyone is doing that though.
For some of us at least, the cameras are exactly the problem. Because part of building a police state is building a system of pervasive police-controlled surveillance.
I had almost exactly that experience nearly 20 years later in the Rothko Room at the Phillips Collection in DC. I ended up sitting on a bench staring at it for about 20 minutes. I had a hard time pulling myself away. It was the first time I understood how powerful non-representational art could be.
I think it doesn't matter too much. From an efficiency standpoint, it takes less energy to leave the solar system than it does to hit the sun, so I'd suggest that. Basically, unless something happens to get in his way, it'd be a long enough trip not to matter to anyone currently alive how far it is.
I'm fine with letting voters decide his fate, but I do insist that one of the options is launching him into space.
As corny as it is, there's a key thing people seem to forget about the boombox thing, which is that crucially *it doesn't work*. She doesn't rush to his arms. She rolls over away from the window. It's only later, after she finds out her father has been lying to her that she goes back to Lloyd.
They initially fight based on this misunderstanding, but later team up to fight actual nazis with both fists and magic.
