ngl there is racist connotations in the way people label ICE as "masked thugs" or "gang members". by doing this you're disassociating ICE from state institutions & associating them with racialized terms of criminality in order to reinforce the idea that they're dangerous. In reality they're just cops & this is just cop shit.

You might be right, in which case "just cop shit" may be rather damning. Regardless, what does associating cops with criminality have to do with racism?
