“Police arrested a high school physics teacher for clapping during a city council meeting.
Teacher Lux Claridge went to a meeting of the Emporia, #Kansas City Commission on July 22 with their spouse and brother.
All three were there to speak out against a proposed hyperscale #datacenter that would sit on 1,000 acres of rural land in Emporia.
They were dragged out, in handcuffs, by police on the orders of a city commissioner.
The city approved the datacenter.”
