I don’t get how there are non-white ICE agents do they not know they are next?

No? They’re dumb as hell

ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world · 37 pts · 223d

In their minds, if they ingratiate themselves enough to those in power and throw enough other people in the way, they think they will be immune.

They are wrong.

They are the to(l)kin*, "See, we have several of "these" working for us so we are not the evil racists that you paint us as."

The word you're looking for is token

Edit: a reference I was completely blindsided by

lost_faith@lemmy.ca · 4 pts · 223d (1 reply)

That was also a reference to South Park's Tolkien Black that was initially called Token Black

Huh, you know I actually thought about South Park while writing — the name I either never knew about or completely forgot. Episode titles and chapters beyond 1, 2, 3, 4, (etc.) have been something that I just can't hold onto in my memory. Anyway, I apologize.

Stop working. Start striking. Stop peaceful protests. Arm yourself. Film public citizen’s arrests of ICE officers, post it online. Keep them captive, use them to negotiate release of others.

Why the fuck do you have a 2nd amendment if you’re not going to use it now?

If you don’t there will be concentration camps and millions will die.

Why the fuck do you have a 2nd amendment if you’re not going to use it now?

Let me answer that for you, by quoting "The Sound of the American Way" by Billy Simons Jr.

In the good ol USA
You can shoot folks every day
At the grocery in a mall or at a church
You can shoot kids in a school,
hell we’ve only got one rule
You can’t do it to a wealthy man
On his way to work
You can stick your fingers right inside your ears
You can close your eyes and hope it disappears

It goes bang bang
It goes pew pew pew
So by god you better order yours today!
Hear those shots fire loud?
Hear those bodies hit the ground?
That's the sound of the American way

Federally sponsored terrorism. Who’d have thought we’d be here after such an effort and tremendous losses in fighting it for all these years.

What’s fucking embarrassing waste of lives.

Kill ICE.

arrow74@lemmy.zip · 10 pts · 223d (1 reply)

Yep we're past abolish ICE

Vile_port_aloo@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 223d

Did it even start. I see some states protest after the fact, haven't heard many stopping ice working their home town s.

I'm at the point where I think we should just shoot ICE

People keep saying this, but why the hell wouldn't anyone assume he isn't going to do that anyway? Like, why are we trying to self-police like there is any respect for current laws or norms?

A buddy of mine was saying, "No! Don't make them marytrs!" Brother/sister they are making themselves martyrs anyway.

Not really Trump can do anything anyways.

There is no point trying to minimize resistance based on it. The less people resist the more Trump will continue to push on.

Trump wants to weaponize your doomerism...

"Video playback aborted due to a network error."

I swear, the internet is getting more shit every fucking day.

Edit: managed to get the video to play in spite of the incompetent web developers doing their utmost best to completely destroy the internet. Not sure it was worth hearing a distressed child screaming in fear for their mum, but it was certainly moving. I truly empathise for the people trying to live in the Land of the 'Free' atm.
