The ICE agents subsequently stopped their vehicle, surrounded the car, discharged pepper spray into it, then smashed the car’s windows and dragged out both O’Keefe and her friend.

O’Keefe said that after being detained by agents, they started taunting her, with one agent telling her, “You guys got to stop obstructing us, that’s why this lesbian removed is dead,” an apparent reference to Minneapolis resident Renee Good, who was killed by an ICE agent last week.

    Damn. What if legalism isn't really a defense against fascism, and the only protection you have is the community you've surrounded yourself with?

    I think protection is doing the best to make sure there's no fascist government in charge. Mean a bit late now (and not directed to who I'm replying to or anything) but I think once those jackboots get a foothold they'll fight tooth and nail to keep it and do worse unfortunately.Im not encouraging violence, hell the dissentors in the US haven't even tried a general strike, if everyone opposed just gave the finger to the government and sat on their asses the people who have money signs in their eyes may change their tune. Or do a culling I dunno I am just a programmer. Maybe there isn't enough dissentors but you don't know until they're all out in force.

    We learned once about Nazis, but even that 'recent' history has been forgotten it seems. I am truly baffled.

    Nazis are cruel because they can get away with it, and they think they are superior to non-nazis. They truly are the weakest, most insecure, psychotic and sociopathic of the species.
    Here we see them fooled into "nationalistic cleansing" routines - operating under Shitlers rule
