The shooting happened after the Department of Homeland Security sent more than 2,000 ICE agents to the Twin Cities in the "largest DHS operation ever."
What about that broader human history? Not the first time someone has said “I rule forever now” and the population said “the fuck you aren’t”. Make sure that history is not “The people of X could do nothing against the evil power of dictator Y, until the US swooped in and saved everyone”
It’s about moves, not solutions. You’re hardly ever out of things to do. No matter how small, the important part is to keep trying. Focusing on the ineffability* of finding a solution is just pointless and counterproductive. Don’t think of what must be done in the sense of what’s “correct”, because there’s no such thing. “History offers no control groups”, so you can only try and do what you believe the right thing is. Looking away definitely isn’t.
I also didn’t say you said that tbh. Not sure where you got that from?
* anti-prententiousness disclaimer, sometimes I have to look up words I think of in my native language in the dictionary to see if they exist and seem close enough. Something out of “the reach of your mind”

Nowhere in my response did I say “humans have a 0% success rate.” Quote me if I did.
I said you can’t ignore that sometimes we fail, and there simply isn’t a solution, which you can’t ignore. Especially if you do want to succeed.
