ICE hacked its algorithmic risk-assessment tool so it recommended detention for everyone

Tue, 26 Jun 2018 20:53:48 -0400

One of the more fascinating and horrible details in Reuters’ thoroughly fascinating and horrible long-form report on Trump’s cruel border policies is this nugget: ICE hacked the risk-assessment tool it used to decide whom to imprison so that it recommended that everyone should be detained.

This gave ICE a kind of empirical facewash for its racist and inhumane policies: they could claim that the computer forced them to imprison people by identifying them as high-risk. The policy let ICE triple its detention rate, imprisoning 43,000 people.

pure:

Big breasted wamen are not more oppressed than flat chested wamen because they are sexualized, and flat chested wamen are not more oppressed than big breasted wamen for allegedly being less sexualized. To make this assumption indicates that people are generally unaware of how misogyny affects women with “ugly” or less desirable bodies. The fragmentation women experience from their bodies takes many forms and it is senseless to atomize suffering on such flimsy grounds. The animosity they both face from patriarchy reinforces one another: there is no “correct” way to have a body as a woman. Try not to dismiss each other. Thank you. Buy my album on itunes.

The thing about the “and they were roommates” girl is I bet she really did just say something truly wild or explosive that totally warranted the unbelieving “and they were roommates”
