Doing evil shit should have a social cost. We need to be boycotting and generally making the life difficult for any canadian company profiteering from trumpist fascism.
I love the idea of boycotting these guys but I have no idea who they are.
More like Jackbootsuite.
#boycott
Does anyone know if there will be a protest outside their offices? Seems like something we can do as Canadians to help.
Yes there is currently a planned protest. On the 30th I think from 3-5?
Thanks! Non-instagram info here.
Looks like these guys are gonna have their work cut out, can you imagine having to come up with the social marketing spin for murdering citizens in the street.
I don’t see a way to contact Hootsuite on their website to complain.
“ICE is using social listening not to amplify one political aisle, but to better understand how they’re perceived; especially by audiences who may distrust them. They want to listen, build trust, and communicate more effectively as an agency that serves all Americans,”
LOL “distrust” is way too mild. More like abhor, hate, loathe… any acronym for hate would do.
You ever read a lie so brazen that you know for a fact the person that wrote it knew it sounded absurd and ran with it anyway?
Fascists do not only lie tactically, to “con” enemies or the masses. According to Finchelstein, fascists also lie as a matter of epistemological principle, since they view the truth as something created and enforced by violence, not as something to be discovered. Paradoxically, then, fascists’ lying has an element of honesty: a sincere and genuine rejection of the idea that their beliefs could ever be rationally proven or disproven, since they believe their beliefs are simply intuitively known to the select few destined for power, or conveyed by the leader or movement to the followers. However, as Finchelstein points out, and as Kahn-Harris’s and Leeb’s work help illuminate, fascists also lie for disingenuous, psychological reasons—that is, fascists lie as a mechanism of denial, to protect their consciences from awareness of what they are doing and to hide from “unspeakable truths” about themselves.
