Fucking Gestapo.

The FBI is going back to its roots of being the premiere fascist paramilitary police force for racist oligarchs.
So, according to maga, registering to vote is suspicious.
Yes that's what they think. They hate that Americans get any choice other than them.
Registering minorities is a crime that they're trying to prove
Registering non citizens is a crime... Minorities are citizens
Secret police (or political police) are police, intelligence or security agencies that engage in covert operations against a government's political, ideological or social opponents and dissidents. Secret police organizations are characteristic of police states governed by authoritarian and totalitarian regimes. They protect the political power of a dictator or regime and often operate outside the law to repress dissidents and weaken political opposition, frequently using violence.
I’m gonna guess confiscating access to devices is part of a denial of service
Who the fuck signed those subpoenas though?
Wow...uh...
How about this weather huh? Good day for a nice cold bowl of gestapo?
The FBI murdered Fred Hampton, and they're suspects in Malcolm and Martin's assassinations. They had a whole operation to oppose, discredit, and assassinate civil rights leaders. And it ain't just black folks. They shot Vicky Weaver in the forehead while she was holding her infant child.
Y'all need to stop acting like the FBI are the bad guys all of a sudden. They've always been the pig.
Oh hey look, intimidation tactics masquerading as law enforcement. I feel so much saferish.
it used to be enemies of democracy but now its our enemies who call for democracy.
Sad day for a once competent organization. This is just straight up election interference.
They were never competent; the FBI has always been crooked.
Remember that this is the same organization that tried to blackmail Martin Luther King Jr. into committing suicide.
Before that, they were instrumental in the Red Scare, and before that they were involved in the internment of Japanese Americans during World War 2.
Am I naive for thinking that due their compartmentelization there are good things happening and bad things happening and we can't just abolish the whole thing due to some silos that get away with disgusting things?
To be clear I'm not trying to defend them at all, tying to understand. And I'd err on the side of abolishment personally. But I don't have solid views or reasoning on the matter.
So my question to someone with your perspective is, is there any good they do that is worth preserving somehow? If you could reshape their entire mission, power structure, and oversight personally, is there anything good there that you would keep?
TIA if you spend effort replying.
As a whole they are rotten from the beginning like all the other agencies. Hell even the army core of engineers poisoned citizens with radiation on purpose in inner cities.
Any organization that allows inexcusable behavior is fundamentally flawed as an organization even if that behavior is somehow isolated in silos.
The whole point of having an organization is to align all the people in the org so if subgroups of people are doing horrible things then that means (at best) the org was missing the necessary guardrails to prevent that.
As for somehow reforming it; don’t bother. It would be better to restart with new organizations that don’t have the baked in, systemic flaws of the original.
