btw another crime by ICE that has not been widely covered is they are FORCE FEEDING PRISONERS FOR MONTHS that is recognized as torture and illegal and should never be happening by our government * https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/aug/05/ice-force-feeding-hunger-strike https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/aug/05/ice-force-fe... * https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/ice-force-feeding-detainees-on-hunger-strike https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/ice-force-feeding-detain...

  The anti suicide cult exists inside society out of fear, not out of concern for the individual in question. It is highly immoral.

  Force feeding is not "life-sustaining, ordinary health care". Its torture.

    My dictionary says torture implies pain or suffering, so based on that... I don't think it's fair to say that keeping people from dying by malnutrition is somehow akin to torture. Interfering with their personal freedom, yes, but not the same as torture. Some also argue hunger strikes are a psychiatric issue... and we force people to go to mental hospitals sometimes, don't we? How is that any better?

  oh we're back to "water boarding farmers is fine" ala Bush/Cheney years people are been kept prisoner in cold dark concentration camps for months or some a year now they are denied legal representation and outside contact they are being deported to countries they are not from or have not been since children they are being deported to countries that have US travel warnings for extreme crime and danger multiple physicians groups are extremely against force feeding, you think doctors are pro-suicide or rather know it's very wrong and a crime? worst countries in the world do this kind of stuff which should be a huge hint it's wildly wrong and criminal behavior by governments but okay, you keep living that privileged life and keep looking down on anyone without your luck to be born in better circumstance
