Good. More of this, please. If your company sells itself as "human centered" or whatever, maybe don't turn around and help build detention beds for a private prison contractor cashing checks off mass deportation. I don't buy the line that architects are just neutral service providers. Design choices decide how people are processed, confined, watched, separated from family, all of it. And if employees inside the firm are the ones forcing management to back off, that tells you the professional class isn't as on board with this agenda as DC pretends. Border enforcement is one thing. Building out a whole detention industry with corporate partners is another. Conservatives should be able to tell the difference unless we've decided every bad idea gets a pass if ICE is stamped on it.
