What’s worse is that ICE is just a bunch of untrained hicks with a badge
YSK that no form of United States ID, no matter how valid, guarantees protection when ICE decides you look like an immigrant.

Because they don’t give a shit whether you’re you’re a US citizen or not. They just want to hurt brown people.

Do the Americans not realise that… like every single one of them going back 4-5 generations are immigrants? Very few native Americans are out there because of immigration.
Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 2 hours ago
Most Americans realize this, but our government doesn’t give a shit what we think right now. Trump and the GOP are not representing us.
Look at Greenland. 75% of Americans oppose what Trump is doing with that topic. That’s disgustingly low, too… But still, he does it anyway.
This isn’t new. Most Americans have no agency. We’re just a few notches above slave labor at this phase. All we can do is vote, but the wealthy are influencing those votes all over the country with money and propaganda.
For every sane person speaking out, there’s two to three others that have given up on everything. They’ll just watch the news and do what it says.

It’s not about imigration. Only brown and black are “imigrants”.
…although even white women are being killed now

Just as most Americans who have moved to other countries refuse to call themselves immigrants, and default to calling themselves “expats”, most don’t seem to get that, no.

Isn’t an expat somebody who is sent abroad for work by his employee?

native Americans
Even they are being snatched off streets and “detained”.
HeartyOfGlass@piefed.social 12 hours ago
Too many Americans think “immigrant” is just a synonym for “not white”.
elbarto777@lemmy.world 9 hours ago
Which is stupid because their ancestors aren’t from this land. And millions of “not-whites” were forced to come here! Not that they will ever understand that.

They are white supremacists. What is happening is exactly what they want to happen.
anomnom@sh.itjust.works 8 hours ago
They’re arresting and detaining the actual native Americans too. Because they really want a Christo-fascist white state, not a native one.
That’s why they want to import the racists from South Africa.

Not to mention that ICE is frequently abducting Native Americans because they’re brown

This is the 21st century version of Manifest Destiny. Their immigrant status doesn’t matter because they’re white and therefore superior.

No.

They have arrest quotas, not identification quotas. They don’t care.

There are plenty of illegal Caucasians from eastern Europe. Basically untouched by the US version of the SS and NKVD.

Carrying your documents around seems like a great way to have them stolen from you during your ‘arrest’. You’d be lucky to see them again.

Right. I hear people pushing passport cards. I can so easily imagine “Here’s my passport card” “Thanks”
“Where’s your id?” “I gave you my passport card” “No you didn’t/what passport card?”

To prevent these tragedies, the Trump administration will simply offer numerical tattoos that can’t be lost.

I dont know why they even mention the bit about criminal history. It would be no less heinous if she did have a criminal record.
dhork@lemmy.world 9 hours ago
It’s because the justification that the Administration keeps giving is that they are getting “criminals” off the streets. So it’s worth in these articles when ICE picks up citizens who have no criminal record. It directly illustrates how they lie.
LadyAutumn@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 hours ago
I just wish we would stop letting fascist dictate the language thats used. We should stop playing into the performance of what they’re doing. Don’t afford it ant legitimacy. There’s no contradiction in their behavior, because nothing they say is real. What is real is their hatred for minorities. What is real is their fascist takeover of the country. And the mass targeting of people of color.

Most of them can’t read or function at a adult level. They get paid by the kidnapping so they don’t care enough to look for proof.

when ICE decides you look like an immigrant.
Not surprising they have all sorts of Aryanisms as they seek to carve out a white ethnostate.
dhork@lemmy.world 8 hours ago
Not only that, but they have an app that is supposed to help them figure out your status using facial recognition. They are admitting that they only harass people who their app thinks looks un-American. And they believe their app even if you have valid documents that say otherwise.

You can’t negotiate with terrorists. They aren’t there for a legitimate purpose. ICE is a Run-Hide-Fight encounter.

Lol omg. Imagine living in a country where you have to carry citizen paperwork around or get fucked over because you’re a different colour. What a shithole.

“Carry your social security card!”
Why, so they can just rip it in half and call it fake documents? Pass. Just fuckin illegally arrest me and let’s get it over with.

2 days detention for a Kavanaugh stop, huh? I think we should add up all the time citizens have spent detained because of blatant racism like this and then the man himself can sit in a shit hole jail for that length of time until he stops being too white to consider that other humans deserve better. I insist all his food contain spice levels not safe for white people to consume.

i wonder when perceived immigrants are forced to wear somekind of mark on them, maybe a star.
