      When did ICE become yet another version of Gestapo?

      I was going to write “instrument of opression”, but state is one by definition, so need to be more specific

        The day it was founded. On what grounds do you argue that the xenophobic minority hunting group with dedicated private concentration camps isn’t a modern gestapo?

          Somehow I doubt that. Ground: that’s only orange shitstain’s second term brought “we shoot you because we feel like it” news to me. But I live far from America, so could be wrong

            It seems you’re asking in earnest, so here’s some different sources for you to read that might help expand your understanding of how historically terrible the US is.

            What I saw in fallujah

            Chicago Police has had “black sites” for decades

        The propaganda got completely wild, but the day to day operations didn’t change a whole lot, it’s just more public now

          Focking hell if that’s true. So only thing that’s changed much is that I am now more informed about what they do? (Yes, it is so hard for me to believe that I need this re-stated a few times)

          Doubtful. The day it was found it was already an instrument for oppression, but just a gang of armed dumbheads with state approval of whatever they feel like doing? I am still clinging to hopeful thought that it’s a “recent” development, not something that’s been happening for decades

                  Instead of reflecting you are doubling down. Noice, good luck
