Neil‘s response when asked by pentagon how tech could improve defense/safety):
something else to do – the best protection/benefit/betterness.. for the entire world.. is for each person to be/become themselves.. perhaps because it’s then we become .. unoffendable
perhaps we’re clinging to privacy/protection/security/defense et al.. when our protection lies in the seeming chaos.. the order we don’t yet get because it is us emerging.. perhaps we spend our energy\ness …. listening for that…?

Original Tweet: https://twitter.com/theyesmen/status/1287175531922890759If we learn anything from these unprecedented and interconnected crises, it should be that war, police and our cruel carceral system do not make us safe. What makes people safe is having a stable climate, a decent place to live, access to medical care and meaningful work.
Now is the time to fundamentally rethink what security means
deeper security than med care and work et al.. fittingness..
