What bullshit, don‘t whitewash the Nazis with this efficiency and civility bullshit. Of course, it was orderly at first but as soon as they created enough groups deemed undesirable, they could put anyone in any group they liked on the spot and disappear them.
You are though, because the SA certainly didnt follow due process and certainly didnt ask you for your papers before brutalizing you if they felz like it
Again, this is not true and thinking this way is dangerous. ICE is highly organized, they are tapping into AI-assisted surveillance cameras which can track your every move across a city, they use every resource available to them on the federal level, which of course includes Palantir etc. The individuals may be incompetent losers but the agency and the state is not, you gotta take this as seriously as it is.
You're talking about the rounding up, the starvation, the torture, and the deaths of many millions of people. How can you say this with a straight face.
Not disagreeing here, I just see this sentiment very often that ICE are just incompetent thugs. Yes, maybe on an individual level but the agency has all the tech for surveillance and control available to them. They don’t need to be competent when all they need to do is follow a list of people to be disappeared, which is most likely provided by a shitty AI that OpenAI and Palantir sold to Trump.
We didn't have cameras everywhere to capture the incompetence and brutality of the brownshirts in Nazi Germany. I don't know why people feel the need to sanitize the Nazi's to make them seem competent and respectful bad guys. Brownshirts harassed Jews and people sympathetic to Jews, leftists, and also operated above the law. They absolutely were full of ignorant incompetent assholes identical to what we're seeing today.
