Another day, another incident to justify the "tree of liberty".
ICE has a blank check on power overreach and qualified immunity for a domestic, dominating police state that WE DON'T NEED - and this is how they use it. Their actions are grotesque, and their words are worthless. They don't even honor what the judicial documents say that they claim to "enforce" - they flat-out ignore active asylum statuses, wait outdoors of immigration court hearings and check-ins, deport people to countries that they have a court order not to be deported to, and sometimes just go for citizens anyway - why not?
Speaking of "blank check", remember that ICE has an approved budget that's 3x the US Marine Corp, folks. This isn't a game anymore, this isn't playtime.

- HaZeust 9mo ago>"What are you gonna do about it?" Spare me. I have my non-negotiables for when action is needed. Do you?
- koakuma-chan 9mo agoIf you are asking me, it's pretty clear an "action" is already needed. I would never take "action" personally though.
- HaZeust 9mo ago>"If you are asking me, it's pretty clear an "action" is already needed." >"I would never take "action" personally though." That's that for you, then. Like I said, spare me.

- mothballed 9mo agoWe are all cowards. A dozen people watched their friend murdered and all they did was shout 'murderers' and then back off from helping the corpse when instructed by the people in masks and unmarked cars claiming to be police. I surely wouldn't have been braver, we all saw the consequences of even the meakest assertiveness. Those people are the bravest we have to offer, we are fucked.
- koakuma-chan 9mo agoThat's exactly my point.
- HaZeust 9mo agoYour point is apathy and fatalism. Someone who points to that doesn't believe in building infrastructure. They don't believe in building political power. They don't believe in building local community power. They don't really believe in anything, and it's due to an inability in their own self to bring about real change in themselves and others.
- koakuma-chan 9mo agoApathy and fatalism sounds like me, yes. I can't comment on the rest, because I don't know anything about building infrastructure or political power.

- therobots927 9mo agoMy line is probably somewhere around “canceled elections”. And I’m okay with Palantir knowing that.
- mdhb 9mo agoIt’s far too late by that point
- therobots927 9mo agoWell then it’s far too late now. At the end of the day I blame the spineless democrats for not throwing his ass in jail back in 2021.
