what i find sad is a dashboard so that taxpayers can watch their money turning to murder in real time.

the redeeming quality is that the information is extremely incomplete , lots of things happening we don't see or know about

The existence of a dashboard is not an inherent endorsement of that murder. It's easy to look at this dashboard as a critique of that murder even if that wasn't the intent of the author. However, your initial jump to assuming that this dashboard is more likely to serve a financial purpose does reveal an actual political ideology (although not necessarily your political ideology), a cold dehumanizing capitalistic ideology, the kind I would consider largely responsible for those murders.

Can you explain what purpose it serves and why, other than those i suggested. That was my initial question
