The current state of the US is not that the secret police would come dissapear you for being sarcastic online, but the un-secret heavily-armed SWAT police could certainly show up if your sarcasm pissed off the wrong person.

That ain't great.

Do you feel like the trend of policing in the US is going in the direction of:

1) less heavily harmed, more accountable, more community-involved personal treatment

or

2) more heavily armed, anonymous, opaque large bureaucracies answering only to distant executives?

And which of those directions does the product in the linked article point?

And who exactly is this happening to? Who are the wrong people? Who are they swatting?

We all know exactly what is going down with immigration, but vaguely alluding to that instead of just saying it while pretending any given person is in danger would be dishonest.

It’s always like this though. Vague blurry imagery of perceived threats, no details.
