      Speaking the truth about the fascists in power.

      Laws don’t matter anymore, there is no more order. They are not being followed, and the ones used to hard you are being made up.

    After years and years of complaining about ‘censorship online’ they’re gonna start arresting people for what they say online.

      It was always projection. They accuse their enemies of what they themselves wanted to do.

      No, what will happen is they’ll use an LLM to analyze the data.

      The LLM will falsely tag millions of people.

      There will be some notable wrong arrests, and then six months later those people, after having their lives ruined, will sell their stories.

        And if it makes you feel better, consider how many contexts the word ‘Ice’ can be used in.

        Just for the record, I really don’t like ice. It’s cold, slippery and wet. And people ruin perfectly nice whiskeys by overdoing the ice in them.

      They only ever cared about r words and n words and f words. Having actual moral convictions requires a conscience

    I’m curious what sorts of posts/users are getting targeted. I would like more specifics. There are literally millions of people criticizing ICE and the government constantly online.

      That’s the scary part! To what degree do you have to be anti-ice to get on their radar?! Protester? Shit talker? Meme sharer?

        The only way to stand up to fascism is with solidarity in numbers. So don’t let the Nazi ICE thugs intimidate us out of criticizing their pathetic white supremacist ways.

        Right? I said early on the unmarked ones should be treated as kidnappers bc we are drilled to not let unidentified people take us to a second location. Too much?

        Or call the real authorities when they’re sniffing around schools and make a real scene because that’s a fiduciary duty.

        Idk I’ve seen people say much worse but these are very sensitive individuals.

      Exactly. They can target anyone.

      I would guess it’s probably focused on ones are prosecutable as threats. That would be enough for it to not be protected as free speech.

    Congress shall make no law … abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

    What happens when Dems take back power? The people okay with with this are going to instantly flip the moment the government comes after them the same way. But those people never think about how something can be used against them. They only care if it is a tool that can help them now.

    I don’t have a wide audience, I’m just a speck in a sea of the internet.

    But here you go, DHS. FUCK ICE. FUCK THEIR FASCISM AND AUTHORITARIAN BULLSHIT. FUCK THEIR COWARDICE. FUCK EVERYTHING ABOUT THEM.

    Please. I dare you to subpoena me.
