And this is what we have been trying to help folks see- the mainstream mental health movement has been empowering carceral systems and not care- but everyone is so excited about the conversation folks are missing what the conversation is being used to do to our folks!!

you know... I'm disappointed in hackers. I really thought we'd see a huge surge of hacktivism – hackers acting in the public good, targeting the powerful etc – but despite how digitally reliant our institutions have become, that didn't really materialize

@jerichobrown We all need a playbook that is in contrast to the militaristic one the Admin went with-I love the suggestions here.Curious as to any statements from Professors too.

The rhetoric of protesters being a "safety" issue is gaslighting when there's literally no safety issue UNTIL you introduce city police forces into the equation. See also how unsheltered tent populations are regarded as "safety" issues.
