“I was crying. I think a lot of it was shock,” he said. “People kept coming up to me and saying I was brave. They were like, ‘You’re a hero.’ I don’t feel like I did anything.”

...

“I still need to heal emotionally,” Haberl said. “But I’m going back because I have to go back.”

That's why you're a hero, my dude.

And now I'm crying. ✊🏼🫡❤️‍🔥

Bullies always pick on the weak ones. That's why these fucks keep picking on mothers and children and workers going to their jobs.

Notice how you haven't heard of any criminal gangs broken up or ICE going into the hood. At their core they are scared little bitches. It's why they keep pulling their guns on people for every slight. They think it's a power move when in fact it's a coward move.

"pulling their guns on people"

I just wanted to keep this at the top of everyone's mind:

ICE agent drops gun and fumbles around. https://youtube.com/shorts/XVAXCwVwaCs

Sorry about the "short" format, YouTube is such trash these days.

[–] VerilyFemme@lemmy.blahaj.zone 21 points 21 hours ago

Exactly fucking right. Trump's administration claimed they were going to target criminals and has only raided schools and businesses. If MS-13 is such a problem, then go solve it.

[–] peoplebeproblems@midwest.social 9 points 22 hours ago

It's all about feeling superior.

They really, really, really don't like the idea of someone being better than they are. When the vast majority of humanity is.

[–] peoplebeproblems@midwest.social 49 points 22 hours ago

Of course. That's literally the whole point.

Yes, Hitler targeted and killed 6,000,000 people simply having Jewish ethnic or racial connections.

He killed an additional 7,000,000 in Germany alone. I thought we had an estimated total of Non-german non-combatants, but it turns out we don't. The Holocaust has been that trivialized.

Honestly, the whole "eugenics" thing is also a trivialization. Eugenics gives a very elementary level excuse to what the Holocaust was. Nazis killed whoever they could. Why? Because it made them feel superior. There was no "master" race. There was no "well controlled breeding program." There were sex slaves for Nazis - wrapped up with some nice benefits for the right women to use as propaganda.

That's the fucked up part. ICE? They're comprised of school yard bullies. They do this because it makes them feel superior. Going after people who can resist? Only if they're heavily outnumbered.

They despise intellectuals not because we're capable of free thought or organizing resistance, or actually a threat of any kind. But because we simply make them feel stupid. Feeling stupid is contradictory to feeling superior, so they act accordingly.

That's it. That's how simple these assholes are. "Can I make myself feel bigger than them?"

So, what are the names and addresses of these agents? They live here. Park in that building. Let’s follow them home and publish where they live so what we can start protests outside their homes.

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 28 points 1 day ago

And inside their homes. Fuck em. No rest for the wicked.

[–] minorkeys@lemmy.world 10 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Interestingly, our devices are the very tools of surveillance used on us so we should be able to use some of them to mass surveil others, no?

[–] whiwake@lemmy.cafe 19 points 23 hours ago

Absolutely. This might be a “job” for them, but it’s our lives. Let’s make their kids hate them.

Crazy people can’t take power if average people refuse to do their crazy bidding.

Is it possible to FOIA Federal paychecks to see who is getting paid for this?

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 37 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Imagine being so fucked up you drag a blind man through the street

[–] Bonesince1997@lemmy.world 19 points 23 hours ago

And to see them all armored up vs civilians. Where's the war, buddy?

[–] AcidiclyBasicGlitch@sh.itjust.works 29 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago)

Ok, so far we've seen ICE and other feds tear screaming babies away from their mothers, smash a glass window over a baby, shoot at least one unarmed civilian, cause a man fall to his death, use tear gas at an elementary school, assault journalists, a veteran, a blind person and numerous other nonviolent civilians. When do we get to acknowledge these are the fucking bad guys and criminals destroying America?

HEADLINE: “High school failures elevated to positions of power continue to be the same high school failures they were in high school”

The King demands it.

ICE maintaining their supremely rigorous ethical standards of behavior while judiciously enforcing the divinely just laws & overtly humanitarian orders from their most glorious masters!

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 6 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

The blind beating the blind
