Also this one... "Racial profiling is at the heart of Amazon Ring’s business model."

There's a liberal tendency to hyper-focus on race and see everything in the lens of race only. Ironically, I don't think this helps racial injustice that they are set out to resolve.

I don't know about "liberal tendency", I wouldn't go anywhere near that far...

However, I do so hate when people clearly use a maligned group and exploit them in their language to further their own agenda.

I've seen similar language used by groups to advocate for the wildest things like remote work, or bike lanes.

I think that is just a cheap deflection as this does pretty much normalize people having video cameras surveilling their neighbors as the discussion about the measure itself is delegated to a side show.

Not a conspiracy, they are just a bit clumsy about it.
