Wild to see this fervor after a white woman was killed, this is like the fourth or fifth time ICE has murdered someone in a year but now our "worst fears have been realized." They certainly weren't an anti-civilian paramilitary when they were fucking raiding American ghettos with helicopters and kidnapping people in unmarked vans off the streets. We don't care about that, obviously, but now they've crossed a line!

This country fucking sucks.

    His policies have killed millions. Stories of white women being brutalized have always pulled at Americans heart strings. We better learn to use it to our advantage, for the sake of everyone.

    While you're still talking about learning, they've already mastered it. Your brutalized white woman is a terrorist in their narrative and people are already buying that.

    If decades of school kids getting shot in their schools doesn't motivate Americans to take action, I'm not hopeful that this will either.

    I really want my cynicism to be proven wrong, but after watching the Americans for over 50 years, I don't expect it will be.

    this is like the fourth or fifth time ICE has murdered See, I didn't even know about this and I like to think I follow US news quite closely. I must have missed it or my brain shorted out because of the constant flood of awful news coming out of that country.

    It won't be, but even if it were; would you really want to fight side by side with someone whose only motivator is fear?

    Sounds like the kinda person who would immediately sell you out to the fascists if they were promised a deal that would protect themselves.
