I should have articulated it better - i don’t mean literally rounding people up to sway an election. I think it might be something that happens gradually over time with a softer, more subtle effect than that. Say, tougher enforcement in some areas than others.
And how about what’s made illegal in the first place? Could there be an incentive to pass laws that criminalize activity that the other side is more likely to engage in? (See: the war on drugs)
It’s probably naive to think that there are no political consequences at all.
