Inhumane treatment to someone like her is probably how a blue collar worker is treated in everyday life in the states. Must suck to be a millionaire actress with connections. To be treated like a pawn like the rest of us.

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Bunch of barbarians.
They prefer americans
I think it's spelled "Murican"
Maybe some people will start to care more now that it's happening to celebrities
When it comes to the people that still don't care, I figure they won't care until it happens to them directly.
I think maybe they care when the person is white
To some degree though that's exactly why this should be more alarming: the current administration ISN'T just doing this to easy targets they know the population will ignore. If they're doing this to a nice white Canadian woman instead of brown people they can easily disappear without being noticed, that means they're getting a lot braver.
I don't know if I'd call her a 'celebrity'
She was in "American Pie, the book of love." The 9th movie in the Pie series and direct to dvd.
Though she's getting a lot of attention now, and if hawk tuah girl can become a millionaire off a sloppy bj, good luck to Jasmine!
People should be disturbed that this is happening to ANY human being. Not just celebrities.
They should, but anecdotes featuring a person you somehow know beyond the specific situation are more potent.
they should, yes. they SHOULD have cared back in 2016. maybe they will now.

She spent 11 days detained.
“I was put in a cell, and I had to sleep on a mat with no blanket, no pillow, with an aluminum foil wrapped over my body like a dead body for two and a half days,” [...] “I have never in my life seen anything so inhumane.” She went on to describe one incident when she and 30 other women were moved in the middle of the night to a facility in Arizona. During the ordeal, she was forced to be “up for 24 hours wrapped in chains.”
From CBC.CA (Eagles is her mother's surname):
Eagles said the detainees at the San Luis facility have no sleeping mats or blankets or windows, and the lights are on all day and night.
Jesus Christ, they already tried that shit with the lights in Trump I and the 9th circuit told them to fucking stop it. I distinctly remember because one of the judges was in a Japanese internment camp as a kid, and he ate that dipshit Trump attorney alive.
And yet, here we are again.

if you work in a restaurant law enforcement eat at, I think it's safe to completely forget about food safety. food safety regulations have never been as big a deal as anti torture laws. really just have fun with it, you know?
On the other hand, if you have undocumented people working at that restaurant, best not to draw any unneeded attention to the staff by law enforcement.
I think it's always better if you don't get caught.
the politics get complicated, of course, but managing risk and the micropolitics of balancing compliance/resistance are too situational to make blanket statements about online.
but there might be a value to giving them food poisoning so they don't eat there anymore. there might be value in keeping them there. I dunno. I'd err on the side of offense; they don't have loyalty, and their proximity means you might just be the one they lash out at if they have a bad day, but I can see the argument the other way.
