And yet we tie healthcare and wages necessary for minimal survival on systems built to fail large numbers of people. Today corporations play musical characters chairs with jobs so they don't have to pay for healthcare or provide living wages, and yet people will still vote and preach against healthcare for all, which would remove the for profit middlemen and reduce the cost of healthcare. Oh industries of people would suddenly struggle and would have to find new jobs if we restructured healthcare? That's already happening everywhere, let's fix it now before no one but the top 1% can afford even basic services.

Reply to Feds: Ex Louisville Police Officer Used Law Enforcement Tech To Help Hack Sexually Explicit Photos From Women by FuegoFerdinand
His scam in short:
> According to a sentencing memorandum, Bryan Wilson used his law enforcement access to Accurint, a powerful data-combing software used by police departments to assist in investigations, to obtain information about potential victims. He would then share that information with a hacker, who would hack into private Snapchat accounts to obtain sexually explicit photos and videos.
> If sexually explicit material was obtained, Wilson would then contact the women, threatening to post the photos and videos online and share them with their friends, family, employer and co-workers unless more sexually explicit material was provided to him

Reminds me of the push online and in conservative circles in the US to call all lgbtq and especially trans people mentally ill.
