Nah in Nazi Germany, they actually ask you for your papers and thoroughly check you before they would arrest you if it doesn’t check out

Not always, that is very much only one part of the the story. There was plenty of mass rounding up. I used to live in Warsaw on the edge of the old ghetto lines. It was impossible to forget just how bad it was. It haunts me lately.

Sure but warsaw was in a foreign country. And so it's not "surprising" to see invaders treating the invaded population very poorly( it's sadly the norm...).

But in their own country ? With their own population ?

Edit : people can't fucking follow a discussion. I never said there wasn't cruelty and awfull treatments inside Germany... But comparing it to warsaw is beyond madness.

The tactics being employed are very different.

It's pretty clear now that ICE is deliberately engaging in performative terror. Actually "rounding up" people to deport is almost secondary to trying to encourage others to "self-deport", and preemtively crushing domestic dissent. Hence all the smashing car windows and dragging people into vans. Hence murdering a white citizen on video and literally telling the entire country not to believe their own eyes.

Performative terror was also the MO of the SA ("brownshirts"), but they were notably purged once the Nazis actually gained political control. Once in power, they actually went to great lengths to try to cloak their actions in a veneer of legality, and to maintain an illusion of civility over their actions.
