AOC: "ICE is a new agency, created in the surveillance-state establishment after 9/11. ICE is Palantir. ICE is AI. ICE is facial recognition. ICE is surveillance. And ICE is coming after you..." (cdn.social.linux.pizza)

It's so incredibly disingenuous to pretend that any of that is the same as what's happening right now. And I'm certain you know that it's different and it's fucking foul that you you're so ok with lying like this. You should be ashamed.

I'm not a fucking lib, I've got eyes and a brain. There's a difference between individual (awful) isolated events, and systemic and purposeful abuse at an administrative level.

    "How dare you provide the data that I explicitly asked for, even though it was easily available?!? This is completely different, and your a bad person for making me defend ICE. Also, it's not relevent, because reasons!"

    If not lib, why lib rhetoric?

    Yeah, things like:

    • DHS Office of Inspector General (OIG) failed to investigate more than 97 percent of reports of sexual abuse
    • ..the Officer of the Inspector General received more than 33,000 reports of sexual and/or physical abuse against various DHS agencies... the OIG initiated investigations into only 247 — or less than one percent...
    • Of the 900, four grievances were resolved in favor of the detainee. There is no indication as to what the grievances were about or whether any of these were forwarded to oversight agencies in Washington, D.C.
    • But the Obama administration excluded immigration detention centers from proposed rules to comply with PREA earlier this year.

    And if you had bothered to read what I posted, you would have known that. You could also do some basic research on your own. Those are results that I got from less than 10 minutes worth of searching, there's plenty more out there.
