"a growing body of research in psychology and neuroscience suggests that believing in meritocracy makes people more selfish, less self-critical and even more prone to acting in discriminatory ways. Meritocracy is not only wrong; it’s bad." https://getpocket.com/explore/item/a-belief-in-meritocracy-is-not-only-false-it-s-bad-for-you?utm_source=pocket-newtab

as we learn more details about more ways police misled the public about Uvalde, remember: the vast majority of claims about individual crimes/police interactions that appear in media are based completely on the unconfirmed and uninterrogated word of unnamed police spokespeople https://twitter.com/catherine_lucey/status/1539275132975337476

Dear Rick,
Crime today in 2022 is higher than it was in 2020 but ALSO similar to 2019 and LOWER than 2018 & 2017.
FYI, LAPD's budget increased by $68M last fiscal year & crime still rose. The ONE YEAR that LAPD's budget decreased $16M, crime went down.
