    "Progressive activist and media figure #JustinKanew sounded an alarm Tuesday after a Democratic district attorney shared a 'horrifying' account of law enforcement training in the GOP-controlled state of #Tennessee.

    "On Saturday, an op-ed written by Democratic District Attorney Steven Mulroy of Memphis was published in USA Today detailing his experience attending a 'weeklong use-of-force training for law enforcement by #ForceScience, a private company hired by many law enforcement agencies across the country.'

  6. The architecture of control assumes we are #TooBusyTo look beneath the surface. As the #Fediverse scrolls through #caturday memes, Palantir’s data centers hum in the basement of our democracy, feeding on every #ALPR lens and #flock camera to score compliance. Even the players at the top are disposable; the passing of #lindseygraham is merely an update to a machine that doesn't need faces, only functions. This is the flow of #stateviolence: moving from covert camps to digital cages.

  8. Marine Le Pen is campaigning. She thrives in campaigning. Judicial problems are likely to come again in early 2027 but there is only 22% of Yes in a poll (by Cevipof) to the question: "Do you think politicians are honest?". French citizens routinely favour sentenced politicians if popular. So we may expect populism to grow and prosper in France up to the presidential election in May 2027.

    Meanwhile the government supports brutalisation and shows that check and balance are a problem: the minister champions a law project to change the current law whereby a police officer who uses his weapon must prove that his or her shooting was necessary and proportionate.

    Meanwhile the government makes military ceremonies enter schools: (fr) blogs.mediapart.fr/b-girard/bl

  12. Fascination for the #guillotine comes from a revenge urge.

    "Often, all it takes to be able to cease to hate a person is to succeed in making it impossible for him to pose any kind of threat to you.
    […]
    "The worst punishment anyone could inflict on those who govern and police us today would be to compel them to live in a society in which everything they’ve done is regarded as embarrassing—for them to have to sit in assemblies in which no one listens to them, to go on living among us without any special privileges in full awareness of the harm they have done. If we fantasize about anything, let us fantasize about making our movements so strong that we will hardly have to kill anyone to overthrow the state and abolish capitalism. This is more becoming of our dignity as partisans of liberation."

  17. CW: Attribution & Kent State photo

    Folks have posted this photo today without #attribution

    "Recognize this photograph? It shows 14-year-old Mary Ann Vecchio screaming and kneeling over the body of 20-year-old Jeffrey Miller, shot during the Kent State Massacre. Kent State photojournalism student John Paul Filo — just 22-years-old at the time — captured the image, and was later awarded the 1971 Pulitzer Prize for Spot News Photography."

  18. "It is clear that #borderRegimes—state institutions designated with the sole authority to deport and restrict entry—have today become a central mechanism for white supremacist worldmaking. What set of forces gave rise to these regimes, though, and how did they attain such wide-reaching, brutal strength? There is no shortage of historical antecedents." - #RobynMaynard

  23. How do you mourn when the words for #grief have been stolen? Following the January 2026 massacres in #Iran, people protested by reinvented mourning in the city of #Karlaba. Mina Khanlarzadeh explores how grief finds new language when the old is poisoned by #stateviolence:

  25. “They voted for #impunity for themselves & #authoritarian #brutality directed at everyone they hated. Lesbian feminist bitches, dirty job-stealing immigrants, evil perverted trannies, on & on & on,” Katherine Alejandra Cross writes of Trump’s implicit bargain in *Liberal Currents*. “The brutality of #StateViolence was supposed to only ever be directed at their ideological foes. And in exchange, the #Trump voter would never again have to live with the mortifying ordeal of #responsibility.”
