The rich don’t care which side you’re on, as long as you’re fighting each other.

Both sides aren't fighting each other, one side has turned themselves into a weapon for rich pedophiles to attack the other side with.

> In September 2022, Robertson allegedly posted online, "The time is right for a presidential assassination or two. First Joe then Kamala!!!"[3] He also allegedly posted a picture of a rifle captioned, "My democrat eradicator!!!"[14] Robertson also allegedly threatened New York attorney general Letitia James and had "patriotic dreams" of shooting Governor of California Gavin Newsom with "my S&W M&P 9mm" and shooting US attorney general Merrick Garland "dead center in his forehead".[3][15][16] In November 2022, he indicated he had nine firearms including at least three rifles and intended to buy an additional three for "getting ready for the 2024 election cycle."

Wow, there's something really wrong with this guy. This goes beyond "criticism" but I admit I don't know where the line falls before you consider a death threat to be worth taking action on.

It's honestly incredible to me that there are people who truly believe these two things are comparable:

> Mr. Dernbach, don’t play Russian roulette with H’s life

Verses posting images of an arsenal, writing they need to buy guns for the upcoming election, and also:

> The time is right for a presidential assassination or two. First Joe then Kamala!!!

One is clearly threatening murder towards public officials and showing themselves taking steps to enact their plan. The other is a concerned citizen exercising their first amendment right. I have to believe the people saying these are the same are bots, because the alternative is just so pathetic.

>If you let the government stomp on your constitutional rights and willingly go to jail on unconstitutional grounds, then that's not respect for the law. That's respect for injustice.

My point is about civil disobedience, not disobedience generally. The point of civil disobedience is to bring attention to unjust laws by forcing people to deal with the fact they they are imprisoning people for doing something that doesn't actually deserve prison.

Expecting to not end up in prison for engaging in civil disobedience misses the point. It's like when people go on a "hunger strike" by not eating solid foods. The point is self-sacrifice to build something better for others.

If that's not what you're into -- and it's not something I'm into -- then I would suggest other forms of disobedience. Freedoms are rarely granted by asking for them.

Using your 1st, 2nd, and 4th amendment rights is considered civil disobedience at this point; keep up.

It's absolutely inexcusable, even moreso than the murder of Renee Good. Though I fully expect the usual suspects to show up and claim it was justified because he was resisting arrest, which seems to be the popular modus operandi for justifying execution by the state.

I don't know how you think this is worse than Renee Good's murder. She was shot in the temple through the driver side window while being directed by an Ice agent to drive away. She was then denied medical care at the scene, and local police were denied access to investigate while the shooter was shepherded out of state as quickly as possible

Wonder what they'll get up to with all that tech when they run out of (illegal) immigrants to hunt?
theossuary · 3 months ago
That's the neat trick, they won't! They'll always define a class of "illegals" to hunt, their job depends on it

The solution I go for is, don't ever run a coding agent on a general purpose machine.

Use a container or VM, place the code you're working on in the container or VM and run the agent there.

Between the risk of the agent doing things like what happened here, and the risk of working on a malicious repository causing your device to be compromised, it seems like a bad plan to give them access to any more than necessary.

Of course this still risks losing things like the code you're working on, but decent git practices help to mitigate that risk.

I really wish these agentic systems had built in support for spinning up containers with a work tree of the repo. Then you could have multiple environments and a lot more safety.

I'm also surprised at the move to just using shell commands. I'd think an equally general purpose tool with a more explicit API could make checking permissions on calls a lot more sensible.
