Don't buy these cope articles. Been seeing them over a year now. The Trump administration's fracturing. Republicans are rejecting Trump. And now we have this. Don't buy it they're trying to make you complacent. Trying to make you slow down and take your foot off the pedal.
another day, another psyop
Basically anyone that's good news, isn't. At least these days.
But I do hope it is somewhat true. I would love to hear about rampant depression and a 100% "an hero" rate.
I don't cheer for that often, but sometimes it seems 300% justified.
And yet they're still there, murdering innocent American citizens.
You made your bed, now sleep in it you nazi fucks.
Good. Maybe a little "combustive confrontation" will convince them to finally fuck off.
Obviously false. You have to be a human being to experience emotions like that.
Even fish experience emotions... these guys are evil.
IDGAF
Hang like the Nazis you are, and the morale will improve
I heard a rock to the head is good for moral.
So is a bottle of spicy alcohol.
Quit then you fucking pigs
Who gives a fuck if morale in the Gestapo is low?
Oh, we don’t just hate you, ICE agents, we want you in prison for the rest of your lives at the very least. Or publicly hanged like the Nazis you are.
Death is way too good for the people who deserve capital punishment.
Content Warning: Photo of dead Nazis.
Mmhmm, you love to see it.
Oh, upside down? I'm all for a humiliating public execution.
The morning after Benito Mussolini’s death, partisans dumped his corpse in Milan, and an angry crowd soon converged. The mob kicked, spat at, and urinated on the body of “Il Duce” while shouting curses at the dead dictator. His mutilated corpse was then hung upside down from a gas station, a symbolic retribution for the suffering he had caused.
Of all the shit I know about Mussolini, the most fucked up fact that sticks with me is that he laughed at running over a child. That is the piece of shit he was.
Here is a fun podcast about it. https://m.soundcloud.com/llbdpodcast/unlocked-the-death-of-mussolini
pity, that
Morale is plummeting among ICE agents
I'd like to know how this compares to the morale crisis reported about 6 months back. Is it consistent or has it gotten even worse.
as they complained that long hours, ambitious arrest quotas and hatred from the public
Total lack of empathy. Their complaints are all about the impact on them. "We work too long, too hard, and without proper recognition". No thoughts given to the cruelty that they release into the world.
many of them have grown “disillusioned” with the tactics being implemented by leadership
Is it just the actions of leadership that bother them and not their own actions? Is their complaint not that they are murdering, harassing and unlawfully targeting the most vulnerable among us (children, elderly sick, etc) because they don't like the color of their skin? What changes are they hoping to see? Parades that celebrate their cruelty? Pizza parties for the team with the youngest person disappeared? An Amazon gift card for the most laws ignored in a month?
“It’s completely unfair to the agents who have been put in this position,” he added. “There’s only so much they can handle before bad things start to happen.”
Nope. It is completely fair. They are 100% responsible for their own actions. The agents are the ones committing these acts. They can refuse illegal orders, they can resign, they can obstruct, they can be whistleblowers.
"The violence and dehumanization of these men and women who are simply enforcing the law must stop."
Aaah, so close. They almost had a moment of recognition.
“All of the sources support the mass deportation agenda, but have serious hesitations about the way it is being carried out and the messaging that comes with it,” ... “Many of the sources have expressed frustration that ICE is routinely blamed for the actions of Border Patrol, a completely separate agency.”
Again with the complete lack of personal responsibility or awareness of the consequences of their own actions
Sounds like a bunch are just covering their asses with the "just following orders" line. Look, you can follow orders, ones you may not even be privy to even being lawful (I'd imagine there might be assumptions made in a few scenarios), but the moment you learn a warrant wasn't signed, or that excessive force is used, etc. You are now culpable and an accomplice to a crime. I can watch a friend a rob a bank, but if I do nothing, even if I'm told to be quiet about it, I will be tried for that crime as well.
"The violence and dehumanization of these men and women who are simply enforcing the law must stop."
simply enforcing the law
That's going to be the "I was only following orders" of the American Nuremburg Trials.
“The violence and dehumanization of these men and women who are simply enforcing the law must stop.”
Unbelievable.
this is the propaganda machine at work. this is what the moral apathy of a man turned empty vessel. this is the banality of evil. it has been with us for decades, even centuries. this form of evil is common many places.
it is, unfortunately, extremely believable
Total lack of empathy.
It is my unfounded, unsubstantiated belief that this is the biggest reason why ICE was chosen for the gestapo-like role they have now. If you take every last department with manpower and guns, the role of "disrupting and upending the lives of otherwise peaceful people" is far and away the one responsibility that differentiates it from all other roles. Like working in an abattoir, empathy just gets in the way of processing illegal immigrants for deportation. A total lack of empathy was a job requirement before all this kicked off. We shouldn't be surprised that this is what we're up against.
Oh naur.
if they think being a domestic terrorist has been hard, wait till they experience being an inmate after they are prosecuted.
Good. Fuck ICE.
maybe they can solve the problem for us all, and go out like their heroes Goring and Hitler
They have brought deep, deep shame on their ancestors and on their descendants; a kind of stain on entire family trees that doesn't simply fade.
I'd say shitty morale is understandable, if that reality were somehow managing to tunnel through the Monster Energy and Ivermectin boiling around their pickled brains.
perfect. chefs kiss.
And maybe the fact they will be labeled as pariahs or jailed after all this is done, we have the names already and it's not hard to get the records once this is all over.
Damn sounds like they would benefit from a union lol
Good. These people should become complete pariahs of society, shunned at every possible point of interaction. Long after they resign, even. I hope peoples' memories aren't too short.
🤩
"Waaaaaaaah! Waaaaaaahh! I'm an ICE Agent, and I feel bad! Waaaaaaahhh!!! I'm an ICE Agent, and nobody likes me! Waaaaaahh! Waaaaaaahh!"
Go eat curb, Fascist goons.
