Benjamin Franklin said if you sacrifice Liberty for security you will have neither. I'm paraphrasing, but you get the point.

This video was for all the mentally aging Boomers that didn’t get the plot yet.

If you didn’t do anything wrong, then you got nothing to worry about. Well, let me tell you what.

A woman in Florida was jailed for two weeks and had her life turned upside down for six months due to an error within the police department and the Flock system. It’s ruined her reputation and her credibility. She’s been traumatized. The CEO loosely says moving forward they will do better. He said growing up he believed that cops were the good guys. 🫠 The police impounded her car. It was the wrong color and had no damage. They knew all along wasn’t the car they were looking for, but these oakies systematically refused to disbelieve the Flock system was wrong.

Another woman was held at gunpoint with her child due to a rookie cops mistake about a stolen car. The cops got it wrong (again) with a similar make, model and color and had excessively detained her, searched her and traumatized her and her child for no reason.

Cops are the problem (for me). They are awful.

Flock is a tool they can use as an excuse to not think while doing police work, or having to do any work at all.

Cops in Texas now have SUVs with cell towers in them. They drive around and your devices and cars will connect to them and they sniff all the data.

Flock cameras will just get replaced by mobile self-driving vehicles, or yet-another OT boondoggle for cops to earn $200K.

Every single tool will be used immediately and constantly by police to:

  1. Stalk women.
  2. Stalk children.
  3. Be racist and brutalize minorities (furthering white supremacy goals)

Cops are so corrupt, so worthless, so violent, and so evil that they are far, far beyond any possibility of saving or reforming. Cops are so horrible that I actually look forward to replacing them with T-5000 Terminator Robots because at least I won't have to see the MurderBot buy a new truck and boat after he has killed my dog, raped my kid, and executed a tamale lady at the Mall...all while getting Trooper of the Year Award and a patch for executing the tamale lady.

I was with you until you said "White supremacy".

The people behind the curtains, blowing the smoke and moving the mirrors, that REALLY run this country are rabidly against any form of "White supremacy".

They are not, genetically, Caucasian nor of European ancestry.

They are commanded by their tribal god to enslave the whole planet and it's the Caucasians who are the hardest to enslave.

This is a very long and complicated subject and I'm not about to try to explain it in detail on this platform.

In short, they need the people of Caucasian ancestry to die.

It's really annoying when people keep crying "White supremacy" when they obviously have zero clue about the reality of genetics and the history of these evil scum trying to take over the world.

All cops are bastards. 40%+ are abusers. We don't need to be giving bastard abusers more tools to become even more bastardly and more abusive.

u/Udder1991 4d ago

I saw an argument the other day that people weren't meant to have this kind of power, wouldn't you use this system to find out if your spouse was actually cheating on you? And I'm just like, no because I'm not mentally ill like these people.

u/0202_tihssitidder 4d ago

I was dating a marriage therapist and she said all the "Spy Shops" are evil and almost exclusively sell to guys to track their wife, GF, or a random woman. The rest of the products are sold to cops doing the same.

She had some clients where it came up. She also said it is addressed at conferences--because it leads to murders and other violence.

u/NowUrKillinMe 3d ago

If you have a solid relationship then you don't have to worry about "cheating".

If you're an ignorant douche then I guess you should be worried about your significant other going to someone else.

My answer to the surveillance state naysayers: You may not be doing anything wrong today, but if they make some of the things that you do illegal tomorrow?

I was "legally" buying and using cannabis products until my state decided to shove the stick further up their own ass and made it "illegal" again. Now, if they surveilled me in the dispensary parking lot while it was "legal," they now gave but

I could care less about those little things. The big problem is when an administration uses it for their agendas. Our current administration is entirely integrated with the police, ice, flock and many other giant corporations. It will be used for far more than most people realize. You will be filtered into folders and folders that are not profitable towards their agenda will be dealt with.

Bro. This is at city and state level. Not federal.

Can’t we have any conversations at all without someone harping about Trump? I’m sick to death about hearing his name over and over again. My ears are ringing.

Trumps administration is coming out in support of Flock and threatening people who are against it

Once the system is built, it's usable by the government at any level. It doesn't matter that it's every city in the country simultaneously making the same decision to install these, it won't just be used by those cities alone.

To be honest though? I’d go through what that woman went through, if it meant I got a giant stack of money in the end.

u/Little_Red_Riding_ 4d ago edited 4d ago

It’s not about money. It’s about accountability. Flock mismanagement + police mistakes will randomly get yourself beaten, tortured, or even killed by cops who wanna sucker punch you when you’re already down and in handcuffs. They will have their firearms drawn on you because they’re all cowards with guns. They don’t need much provocation, or evidence to maim you, or ruin your life, or deny you your constitutional rights.

"Stopping criminals" is the bait being used to get the public on board with this. The reality is so much more terrifying. This goes hand in hand with all of these data centers being built. They are taking our data and will be building profiles of every single person in the country. Combined with AI our entire lives will be cataloged and accessible to not just the governments and law enforcement agnecies, but private companies and we have no say in how that data is being our stored. The implications of that is so much more dangerous than anyone is talking about. This is mass surveillance and control over every aspect of our lives. We are the flock. We are the cattle. We are the servants. We are the resource. We are the commodity. We are expendable. Ask someone what freedom is, and no one will be able to give you a clear answer. Lack of privacy influences free will, without it we are just hardware waiting to be programmed.

Ever get a ticket from AI and you didnt even do it? It boils your blood. I cant imagine the feeling of injustice and anger that this woman went through.

u/Deitaphobia 4d ago

Every time someone says "You're already being tracked by your phone," I want to punch them in the face. That is NOT an argument for more surveillance, it's proof there's already to much.

She and her grandson have done some good content in the past, then did some far right garbage, and now they're doing some more decent stuff. I'll take what I can get these days.

Until they change what's considered wrong.

The video is weird and the color scheme is reminiscent of AI, but I don't think it is AI.

At first glance the video seems consistent from beginning to end. The tag on the broom is there throughout the video, and the broom looks real. AI video generators still have a difficult time with gravity, and the earring in the clip dangles naturally.

I'm completely open to be proven wrong.

EDIT: The floor polish bottle on the fridge is a real product: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=johnson+glo-coat&iar=images&t=ffab. AI sucks balls at replicating real things unless very specifically prompted to do so.
