  The indiscriminate prejudice is intentional. Any tattoo may be a pretext. e.g. Neri José Alvarado Borges and his autism awareness rainbow ribbon. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/mar/20/deported-because-of-his-tattoos-has-the-us-targeted-venezuelans-for-their-body-art https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/mar/20/deported-bec...

    The absolute banality of evil on display here with the ICE agents who can see that tattoo and still check the box for "gang member".

      Banality of evil is maaaybe for the people who designed and implemented the database. Actual ice agents signed up for and underwent training on how to do this, they knew it would be this and they wanted to do it, and are willingly doing it now. That's just normal evil.

        You know what, you're tight. Just plain normal evil. The eerie thing is I can't recall the last time I saw it phrased like that before today, and now I've seen it used twice in a few hours in two totally different spaces: https://bsky.app/profile/islan-kleinknecht.bsky.social/post/3lmjpo7pcms2r https://bsky.app/profile/islan-kleinknecht.bsky.social/post/...
