Can you please change the comment to this post. Otherwise I have to take it down.
Why people downvote this? Mod being friendly and polite, giving a chance to keep the post up instead of just deleting it on the spot like SOME websites do. This rule isn't arbitrary. You need written permission from the original author to reproduce an article.
Fuck ICE, but stop saying they aren't human. For one thing, their cruelty and depravity should stand as a reminder of what the worst of humanity is capable of. But more than that, dehumanization of one's enemy is the first step toward radicalism. How else do you think they came to have their own terrible views?
They weren't born like this. They were made this way.
I agree. The complacent myth that the Nazis were subhuman monsters and not people like us is part of what got us this resurgence of fascism. We need to admit that the worst people are more like us than we're comfortable with.
I sometimes fear that
people think that fascism arrives in fancy dress
worn by grotesques and monsters
as played out in endless re-runs of the Nazis.
Fascism arrives as your friend.
It will restore your honour,
make you feel proud,
protect your house,
give you a job,
clean up the neighbourhood,
remind you of how great you once were,
clear out the venal and the corrupt,
remove anything you feel is unlike you...
It doesn't walk in saying,
"Our programme means militias, mass imprisonments, transportations, war and persecution."

“It wasn’t Hitler or Himmler who deported me, beat me, and shot my family. It was the shoemaker, the milkman, the neighbor, who were given a uniform and then believed they were the master race.”
They were born humans, but they've surely lost their humanity by now.
People don't stop being people just because they're terrible. That just makes them terrible people. Never forget that the capacity for evil lives in all of us.
Furthermore, the only real purpose of claiming someone has "lost their humanity" is as a justification for treating them as less than human. Which is precisely why you and I despise them in the first place.
I don't approve of that kind of rhetoric as a general rule, but conflating calling someone inhuman for their cruel actions with calling someone inhuman for their perceived racial inferiority is incredibly disingenuous.
Well this begs the question of whether or not radical actions are required at a certain point and where that point actually is. Surely complacency only gets more necks stepped on.
Let it persist beyond their assignment.
They should feel unwelcome everywhere. Forever.
We should flip over their portable toilets… with them in it
We should arrest them for dragging women detainees into them...
We should push them over when they're solo too, but silly pranks isn't enough, we need justice.
They won't let us use their bathrooms to go pee.
Definitely use that to garner sympathy when you're at the Hague.
When an agent moved to detain the person who spit on him, the crowd tackled and attacked the agents while surrounding them.
heroes
Aww, is the Gestapo getting their feefees hurt?
No, they're getting their peepees hurt.
Piss your pants fuckfaces
lol, lmao even. Fucking idiots, the disconnection with reality is unreal
Shitheads should speak with nurses like Pretti about how long they must go without taking a piss.
Such pansies.
which amendment is the guarantee against soldiers being quartered in homes?
How about this: the general public treats ICE as well as they treat their worst-abused prisoner. Deal?
oh man must be so awful for them to have people making it impossible to pee in peace cant ever imagine what that's like.
ICE are claiming how tough they are but cry at the most tiny aspect of people holding accountable treating them like the Nazi scum they are.
Let the children out of the cages you fucking scumbags and then maybe you can piss in each others mouths
Welcome to the reality of your existence ICEholes. We don't support you and need you to go back to your proud boi/KKK hole and continue to degrade.
It must be a sobering reality thinking what you're doing is lawful and the population is on your side, and then you have people on the street screaming slurs at you, hotels are kicking you out, and businesses won't let you take a shit.
Nah, Most of them are always the victim, never the victimizer. They cannot conceive of being the bad guy. The ones that do are scorned to silence by the ones that have no ability to see themselves as wrong. Those are the people that feel anything they do is justified and are capable of horrors.
Waaah! Somebody's gotta wear a diaper. Waaah!
They wanna larp like marines anyways, might as well go all in and give them the adult diapers too.
They want to be "at war" with citizens, yet still demand citizens treat them like the social contract is intact
It's common with fascists, because basic shit like this does have an effect on the jackboots.
Kudos to the Minnesotans and the ICE asswipes can piss and 60shit their pants in their $60k plus vehicles.
Nazis are like vampires you never invite them in
If the police weren't so buddy buddy with them, I'd say follow them around. The second they piss in a corner, get them for public urination. If it were on school grounds or close by? (don't remember if there's a distance cutoff) you could have them in the sex offender registry, which tracks them and is fully public.
ETA: The ones who aren't already on that list
Is this how we end up with public bathrooms?
Pee your pants, you redneck pieces of shit. Isn't that what you do anyway?
Stop being crybabies you shut nazis
That's a lame excuse for pissing yourself from the slightest resistance from someone you can't just shoot anymore. Do like your boss and get a diaper if you can't cope via other means.
Lol maybe if they don't want a UTI they shouldn't have signed up to terrorize people
It's for their own protection! God forbid, there might be a trans person in there.
/s, obviously.
o noooo, your right as a human being is being infringed upon by another human being? o NOOOO i do not feel bad for you. what are we to dooooo.
