OK, but the work in this case drove investigations and evidence, not a drone strike into their family home. Lets not muddy the discussion, WASPs in Connecticut

Lets not muddy the discussion, WASPs in Connecticut dont have to worry about Palantir as much as a random brown person in Asia.
- cwwc 6y agoVery true. In the rare case (very, very rare), jail time. But comparatively -- yes, I agree with your point, it is nothing.
- mc32 6y agoDo you think they’d have misgivings if it were a terrorist in Bosnia? I don’t think his color comes into it. It’s as if in WWII we were like, oh noes, they’re wasps (ignore Bavaria for a moment) don’t shoot! Or with Russians today, oh noes, don’t make them into all powerful boogeymen. Not everything in the world is about color. The military does not care who the enemy is, they engage without mercy as is the case in war or conflict.
- peruvian 6y agoYou're correct it's not just about color, it's also about class (IMO it's mostly about class, not just within America but the Global South as a class entirely as well).
