Ice is Taco's secret police.
Gestapo, Stazi, Spanish Inquisition. Some good reading on history.
I know I love making fun of you yanks, but, y'all stay safe out there.
Uhhhh......we can't
For now. If you're a white male/female with at least 2 generations of American citizenship. You'll be ok.
I'm thinking the next big leap? Gov looks at all social media for what political side you're on. Then you'll get thrown in camps. This is maybe year 4 of Trump or whatever comes after him in a rigged election. Maybe an "emergency" skip the elections this time thing.

No, the next big leap is transgender people being rounded up. Trans people have been saying this, myself (an Australian) included, since before the election. He's already made it difficult to impossible to leave the country if you're trans. Not only are trans people being denied passports in their chosen gender, but those people are being denied them in their gender assigned at birth too. They're ignoring court orders over it as well.
Palantir is actively collecting a database of dissenting social media accounts
We are not safe and you are naive as fuck if you think we are.
cis hetero *neurotypical white man/woman. I only fit the white category. The LGBT will be next to be rounded up into camps. Not sure if I should flee the country or just accept my fate.
It absolutely is, and the ramifications of the bill won't be fully understood until it's largely too late.
It will have to be challenged in the courts and hopefully held up until a new Congress is seated in '27 and a new President in '29.
a new President in '29
We all hope.
until a new Congress is seated in '27
So, you think Trump isn't going to have democratic candidates arrested and/or disqualified from running? It's one of the standard next steps for authoritarian leaders.
Sure, there will be a new President. Vance will take the job in name with Trump as VP, but will sit back.
Trump is old as shit and loves McDonalds. It's a medical miracle that he hasn't died of a heart attack in his sleep already. He's not going to be here much longer regardless.
Dont engage the gestapo. That is the only way they can fight, through confrontation. Bullets, fists, crowd control.
Get a propane torch, you know for some light plumbing.
Always have an angle grinder, these things can cut steel, but are also useful for shaving down rusted iron bars and aluminum. Keep these separated for safety reasons.
Also, if you need something very bright and very hot, magnesium strips can be ignited by the above mentioned torch. Don't do this near that dust you made.
Seriously don't. That kind of reaction, depending on the amount, will melt through solid steel.
Also, never mix grape juice with yeast and sugar. If you put it in a warm place, it will make a light poison appear in the bottle.
ICE is now upgraded to:
Imperial Command Enforcers
Sure would be nice if people like you didn't meme the rise of fascism in America
Sure would be nice if Americans didn't elect fascists to control the world's most powerful military. But here we are.
Dumb comment.
“Sir what would you say to extremist groups like the Proud Boys?”
“Proud Boys, stand back and stand by”
…
They stood by.
Best case scenario is Trump fuelling and stealing all that money
He kinda is. He's made deals with the companies that will get rich from the semi-legal human trafficking profits that this creates.
Fortunately most of this money will be stolen by federal contractors, but yeah, the gICEtappo is going to balloon in size.
That's the glimmer of hope here. You've got greed and inconpetence all dueling with malice.
Billions of dollars will be squandered on overpriced and inappropriate equipment, or laundered through consultancies that won't be providing proper training, setting the stage for some dramatic rake-in-the-face moments.
My bingo card includes:
- An ICE branded armoured vehicle driven over their commanding officer, DUI optional.
- Antivaxxed recruits getting Super Malaria trying to operate the camps.
- Some dramatic security failure (maybe a domestic-terror plot) that even Biden's law-enforcement apparatus would have easily stopped except that all resources were focused on ICE.
I feel pretty prepared.
Coming soon to election centres near you.
At the rate things are going, I wouldn't be surprised if most of that money will end up in the pockets of new American oligarchs.
as if they arnt doing it already, they have A specialized airline solely for deportations.
Yes, and what exactly is she doing about it beyond histrionics?
What exactly is one representative, of a party that is in the minority and therefore has no power, supposed to do other than speak up?
What are you doing besides complaining?
someones using their word of the day calendar
histrionics
You really don't understand how fucking sexist that word is, do you?
Everyone try not to be too positive about this now.
What a stupid comment to get blocked over
