“Some people can forcefully occupy the People’s House, while others—those who are prevented from voting, who are aggressively policed, who are imprisoned at rates unmatched even by South Africa at the height of apartheid—are locked out.”
Today I learned about flushing my local cache - not the browser, not the remote server, not the network.
