People using violence to gather resources and power to themselves has always been the state of humanity. Capitalism is just a present day version of that.
Power is never relinquished willingly. Only through the threat of violence, or by actual violence.
“Dias Goncalves was released from the traffic stop with a warning,” the sheriff’s office said in a news release Monday.

Oh, poor poor Omaha. I get that news stories like this are for people who don’t understand how ICE raids affect them, and I’m not who this story is for, but for fuck’s sake.
Like the watches? The crypto? The hotel rooms for officials? The $5M resident visa? It’s like they’re using the Emoluments Clause as a guide, and nobody cares anymore.
Steelcase Series 1, there is no way I am ever going back to half-assed “gaming” chairs ever again.
