    ICE is America’s brownshirts and ICE agents are worse than regular cops (who are, obviously, bastards).

    If ICE made it a lifelong goal to eat all the shit I’ve ever shit in life, they’d still have more purpose and respect than they do now.

    i.e. Eat my shit, ICE.

    So ICE is scraping the narcissist playgrounds to hunt migrants now. Par for the course in the surveillance state’s evolution — law enforcement cosplaying as keyboard warriors while violating what little remains of digital privacy.

    The real kicker? Tech giants rolling out the red carpet for this dystopian collaboration. Data extraction as border enforcement. We’ve normalized corporate complicity in human suffering through layers of API access and sanitized policy jargon.

    Watching governments weaponize platforms designed for vanity and outrage should surprise nobody. The algorithm feeds on fear either way — whether it’s manufactured viral rage or biometric tracking masquerading as national security. This isn’t about immigration. It’s about perfecting the digital panopticon where every like and follow becomes potential evidence.

      Maybe 30% of ICE personnel would understand that being the gestapo represents a “branding problem,” maybe 1% are ethical enough to feel bad about it but not enough to quit.

    I just saw few dozen identical comments with a bunch of upvotes, so the idea of people randomly dogpiling one single comment for no apparent reason struck me as funny!

    I seem to recall a subreddit like that… chains of identical one word posts, 20 comments deep, all with a hundred upvotes… and one poor dude with like -1000.
