When you watch sites like iceout.org often like I do. You notice that there has been a sharp uptick in the number abductions. Recently, these abductions are quick and they normally only target small groups as opposed to the larger scale raids at places of employment, or the invasion of cities that happened earlier.
It shows a national trend in which tactics have changed. They are trying to reduce optics and media attention/intrest by keeping actions small and distributed.
And the media is happy to ignore this if it can.
I read the news every day. ICE is definitely in the media every day.
To an extent. But part of it is just psychology. If it's on camera it's a lot more emotionally salient. If they can avoid cameras it makes it harder. The resistance will also have to change tactics but I'm not sure how...
"invasion" implies it didn't come from within
They are invading communities they do not live in to disrupt the lives of the people that do live there by abducting, murdering, and terrorising them with anonymity and impunity.
Yes I get that but ICE is entirely formed, from idea to execution, by Americans
Perhaps if you guys had done some instrospection about racism being engrained in America, instead of pretending it was all a lie, you could have started turning the ship around
Better late than never though, it's never too late to address an issue like this
Tha is for the victim blaming, any other words of wisdom?
Victim blaming would apply to the people abducted or killed by ICE. Last time I checked the US was still a democracy, with a very low level of participation.
So yeah. There might not be a single cause to the rise of fascism in the US, but apathy and ignorance of the general population definitely has something to do with it.
On the other hand the grand scale of the ideology is nationless, and the nations are generally just tools used for the ideology to manifest. For everything...
There's "The Game" and the players of the game play out on a global gameboard. The nations are like different editions of mini games. And the citizens inside those nations from the street life to the regular citizens up to the politicians and presidents and prime ministers are the game pieces being played. Our civilian lives are like game pieces with a lifespan and what we are taught are the moves the game players decided. Sometimes the moves may lag, like the game player makes move and it doesn't finish for years or decades. We are taught that we are doing is what's right, and taught what success is, all while helping and funding something cancerous to humanity. It's not simple though... You can seriously think your doing something good, but in the grand scheme it's just a blip that helps lead to the end goal of people (the game players) that don't have the human species overall progression and wellbeing in mind. Essentially it's the conquest mindset. "We" conquested the land, the animals, nations, and we ARE conquesting the human species. The spirit and ideology of the "game players" doesn't stop with animals and land. It's the conquest of existence and we are their game pieces being played out to fund it and built it.
We are nothing but chess pieces being molested physically and mentally by psychopaths. Even the protests and civil unrest are game moves or eventually manipulated by game moves. We gave up our power for false security and false freedom and shitty entertainment. You don't fix this by utilizing the rules that they built to own the game pieces. You fix it by detoxing and understanding yourself and your existential experience separate from what was taught to you as guidelines. Once you detox you basically come back to the authentic message and guidelines that religions used to be built on before they were manipulated as a method of control. Those teachings are the closest to timeless indestructible knowledge from wisdom. And those teachings can be known and understood absent of organized religions... Absent of anything but honest reality. It's like distilling existence down to only truth, where as in "modern societies" honest authentic soul is actively distilled from genuine human existence... It's like the fuel system that keeps this cancer growing.
It's a hard pill to swallow. And most people won't because it's difficult and uncomfortable to know creating order in this chaos is up to you and not something you can leave your house one day every 4 years to vote on. ...and to add to that it's also not something you can pray away once a week at church. ...an authentic person needs to detox and return to that balance that is truth, reality, and the ability and faith to ride the wave of constant chaos which will never leave and can never be escaped from no matter how much bullshit is sold to you as security, safety, and freedom. If one isn't in this balance than everything born from that person, everything created from them will help to build a faulty foundation. ...Like a child being born with drugs, cancer, or aids in its system. And we are watching a world built on that foundation giveaway and rot.
Also... This ice stuff is probably a beta test for policing after modern Ai surveillance and profiling comes into play. Data centers are being built for this not just Gemini and chatgpt. And the funds to ice are for the future. The events and murders are possibly actions to stoke fear early so we fear them later. Immigrants are targets now for the beta test because they are the easiest minority target, they know they couldn't have gotten traction and growth of the new army with any other group of people and it also normalized "regular" people being abused so that later on when it's anybody, you or me, people won't flinch at the abuse.
And no one is taking action. We should be burning this country to the ground everyday until these fascists are gone and our political system is razed and rebuilt. Holding a sign at a convenience protest or boycotting Paramount for a couple of weeks just doesn't seem to be cutting it.
