Tear down the system that lead to a militarized police force and nation-wide surveillance? Nonono, that's crazy talk.

[-] frisbird@lemmy.ml 18 points 1 month ago

That system? The United States of America.

[-] defaultusername@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

More accurately, capitalism.

Any system that involves people having power over other people is inevitably going to end up like this.

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

So like, the constitution or...

[-] Drusas@fedia.io 1 points 1 month ago

Racism and class war, for example? Absolutely, but those will take a little longer.

[-] Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone 35 points 1 month ago

Abolish ICE and then prosecute them. Or the other way around, not that important.

When you finally denazify, please do it properly. Otherwise they and their ideology will fester in your institutions like a cancer, waiting to return when the time is right.

[-] Bloomcole@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

They won't, Dems paved the way and they liked it just fine.
No 2 white people got shot.

[-] bryophile@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Good point but what does it mean?

Any move against them, especially penalising them, will evoke a counter reaction. The ideology will linger on and fester.

How do you decide who to "weed out"? Does it come down to removing all Trump supporters? That will create more tensions..

[-] trollercoaster@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

At least weed them out in all public institutions. Not like it was done in post WW2 Germany, where they were pretty much all left in place.

[-] Drusas@fedia.io 6 points 1 month ago

The US doing largely the same after our civil war is a huge part of how we got into this mess.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

It's like we tried nothing twice and got the same result

[-] Bloomcole@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

That county is clueless and hopeless.
Just look at how they still adore the Drone King Obama, mass-murderer and Deporter-in-chief.
The scumbag now hypocritically criticizing ICE, while he expanded it.

[-] Drusas@fedia.io 1 points 4 weeks ago

Do you do anything but spout off like a MAGAt?

[-] Bloomcole@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago

LOL the typical dumb american.
Can't say anything about the other asscheek of you uniparty without being called that.
Pathetic, I hate all of you scumbags, get it now?

[-] trollercoaster@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

They are murdering people in the streets with impunity. You are way beyond the "creating more tensions" stage.

[-] bryophile@lemmy.zip 1 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

Yeah, but this talk of "weeding out" and "denazification" will only create more violence. You guys need to learn to chill.

Who will you "weed out" anyway? Trump? His inner circle? ICE employees? Those who support ICE? Those who support Trump?

All this tough talk does nothing but escalate the situation. The US really needs to learn how to be a functional democracy again. And no, that does not involve "weeding out" anyone.

[-] UnspecificGravity@piefed.social 16 points 1 month ago

Worth remembering that both of the most recent fatal shootings were carried out by border patrol officers. It doesn't end with ice.

[-] SaltSong@startrek.website 15 points 1 month ago

First the one, then the other.

[-] axexrx@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Then farm them out as manual labor under the 13th amendment.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Maybe I still have too much of a soul left because I still feel like enslavement is a step too far.

[-] TrueStoryBob@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago

It's possible and necessary to do both.

[-] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 month ago

every single ICE agent has committed treason against the United States, capital punishment is a suitable publishment

[-] eattherich@feddit.online 9 points 1 month ago

I bet the land of the free has a political party you can vote for that is running on that platform -- right?

they all committed treason against America. guess what is an available punishment.

[-] Ryanmiller70@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 month ago

Shatter every member of ice. Letting them survive in prison isn't good enough.

[-] coffee_nutcase207@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Both please.

[-] commie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 month ago

prisons are bad. abolish ice and the prisons

[-] thorhop@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 month ago

Blow ICE out of the airlock.

[-] crazycraw@crazypeople.online 5 points 1 month ago

hmm that system don't work no mo

Let's see if they remember the penalty for treason. Give it time, it'll come to them.

But where? Nobody wants nor needs those Nazi thugs.

[-] baka 2 points 1 month ago

Put them in the middle of the ocean to help fight global warming or space..

[-] dipcart@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago
[-] MattR@feddit.org 1 points 1 month ago

They should be classified as terrorist organisation and in case any of those fuckers steps on European soil, they should be arrested and trialed as war criminal. Fuck those fucking assholes, I hope everyone of the ICE staff dies the most painful death.

[-] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 1 points 1 month ago

Do what I do, and lick ice.
