"I'm sure there is a perfectly valid and rational explananation for why this woman was hit with her own stroller and then a child was physically threatened." Oh. Okay. Yeah. I bet she was asking for this treatment. Just look at how she was dressed, right? Right!? While it is cough unfortunate that now you have to see a clearer and less imperfect window into fellow human experience and feel those damnable pangs of empathy ever now and then, this is inevitable. There are 2 kinds of global surveillance. There is the kind kicked off by the government to quasi-legally spy on anyone at any time for "national security". There is also the kind that is bottom up, the population sharing it's perspectives with itself. The later has been increasingly influential. It has shown us police brutality. It has debunked ideas that women at the Berkeley riot was armed (and shown Reuters doesn't vet photos very well). It has shown us black citizens trying to stop white antifa activists from starting a riot in their neighborhood. It's shown us Nazis being punched. It reminds us of the lies and about-faces of politicians. It has shown us the poor driving skills of our peers. And that's this month alone. And on and on. For all it's flaws, this surveillance led by individuals (who recognize they own their own perspective and have a right to share it) is changing society far more than anything else we've seen in recent memory and it is accelerating. It's a good thing, on balance
