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.

i think you're taking the wrong point. I understood it as ice just being cops, and this is a cop problem , not just one specially evil group.

at least that was my reading.
