Abolish ICE, 'No ICE in the Cup' mass call set for June 4
I'm seeing people post and repost, "ICE is not about immigration. ICE is about normalizing a paramilitary force on peaceful streets. Abolish ICE." Y'all, it's about more than one thing.
Long before ICE functioned as the secret police of an overtly fascist regime, the agency was an evil force that preyed on immigrants, as were previous iterations of immigration policing.
For instance, it's also about ethnic cleansing. I'm boggled that some ICE employees are carrying water for this while coming from many of the same ethnicities the fascists want out of the country.
Not much difference between the SS and ICE.
And even if it was “just” about immigration that would be a valid reason to abolish it.
the responses to this thread are so depressing!
I’m seeing people take this weird either/or approach to a lot of issues lately. “Stop being mad at Trump; be mad at Republicans who won’t get him out of office.” Seems both fair and efficient to hate both, but I guess they’re worried we’ll exhaust our National Strategic Hate Reserve or something.
How about, "ICE is not just about immigration ..."
Hitler established The Geheime Staatspolizei (Secret State Police) in 1933. It operated essentially above the law, using informants, surveillance, and torture to target, interrogate, and deport political dissidents and marginalized groups Sound familiar? Trump is using ICE for more than intended 🤔
