I see we've reached the "act like a gaslighting boyfriend" part of Amazon's union busting campaign.

The project, founded by a group of Philadelphia attorneys, examined the Facebook accounts of 2,900 active and 600 retired officers, finding thousands of posts that were racist, sexist, advocated for police brutality or were similarly problematic. The group made the database public, saying the posts eroded the public’s trust.

Not only do we have to worry about the New Jim Crowe producing mass incarceration and domestic militarization. The New Jim Code as termed by Dr Ruha Benjamin is currently accelerating technology coded to target and harm people based on their race and other social statuses. The old Jim Code of technology was Polaroids cameras with buttons for photographing black people, one of the first cameras of their kind to photograph black folks had a button to change the camera to have an extra flash and were developed for South Africa to identify indigenous African people for apartheid and punish them. The new Jim Code looks more like facial recognition software that just like early cameras, fail to capture and recognize black faces accurately by design and disproportionately used to incarcerate black people. The vast majority of uses of facial recognition software is on black and hispanic people by police departments, and Arabic folks by TSA. This level of targeted surveillance is a large reason why we have the highest incarceration rates in the world in the US. The main contributing factor to the acceleration of incarceration over the recent decades is the increase in development of racist programs used to harm these communities. Robots have the same biases as their programmers. Therefore we must work together in the antiracist movement to counter racist programming in the technology we are using. The more subtle the coding, the more dangerous that code will be as it will likely take the longest to abolish. So every developer is challenged to expose and fix/abolish racist code.
