Actual footage from the attempt

[–] maximumbird@lemmy.world 16 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

I’m at a point now where I can’t wait for this all to blow up. Literally and figuratively.

Going after our farm workers is not going to end well for anyone. I can only hope that someone in power will wake up and do something about it.

[–] peteyestee@feddit.org 1 points 9 hours ago

They just need to make them prisoners and then they will be able to get back to working in the fields again.

[–] TehWorld@lemmy.world 3 points 13 hours ago

The people in power all see this as an absolute win. The things they're trying to do about it is hire more ICE agents. It's going to take a while before this blows up, and the only real way out of it is to hope that we have elections in a few years.

[–] Alteon@lemmy.world 28 points 17 hours ago (4 children)

Ah yes, the dangerous criminals that are out farming for slave wages. Good job ICE. I'm assuming that ICE is going to punish the farmer that employed these dangerous criminals? ICE has entirely lost the fucking plot...

[–] seejur@lemmy.world 6 points 15 hours ago

I can't wait for those MAGAS to finally get those lost jobs, and go pick up fruits and veggies for * check notes * 2 dollar an hour!

Surely we'll see republicans back to the farms, any moment from now

[–] gabbath@lemmy.world 3 points 13 hours ago

lost the fucking plot

Oh they never had it to begin with. They were always just nazis, but now the leash is off. Even worse, they're being pushed to fill quotas, which incentivizes recklessness and cruelty.

[–] Bakkoda@sh.itjust.works 7 points 16 hours ago

The plot is to make people angry enough where they do something worthy of getting black bagged. The US government wants people to act irrationally.

[–] andybytes@programming.dev 1 points 14 hours ago

Yet Americans belong to their many denominations of a imperialist death cult of toxic positive optimism. We are cooked. No party will save us. Life is about to become impossible.

[–] andybytes@programming.dev 9 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

This is such a limp dick country... I fucking hate the USA... Genocidal fascist imperialist shit stain of a country.

[–] peteyestee@feddit.org 2 points 9 hours ago

Make America Hard Again!

[–] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 10 points 15 hours ago

Cool, so we can look forward to empty shelves in grocery stores for domestic products and steep tariffs on foreign food products?

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 11 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Real Americans don't eat vegetables!

[–] andybytes@programming.dev 4 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

That's why they got so much ass cancer hahahaha

[–] peteyestee@feddit.org 1 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

It works out better for them if we are dead, they have what they need to move forward and it doesn't work with us alive.

[–] MangioneDontMiss@lemmy.ca 9 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

food is going to get so fucking expensive...

like eggs, we're heading toward a produce shortage. Our supply of eggs is fine now, but prices are still high. They're gonna do the same thing with produce.

[–] jimjam5@lemmy.world 10 points 19 hours ago

Oh but your average employment-seeker will totally line up to do that job for slave wages, so it’s all gud. /s

[–] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 28 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Every day I get news about the gestapo capturing the enemies of the reich and throwing them in box cars, and I hear nothing about citizens doing anything to stop them.

[–] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 23 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago) (1 children)

There are protests and people mobbing ice agents and standing in front of the boxcars and stuff. In LA/Paramount there were enough that they shit their pants and called daddy for backup. It’s not really possible for these remote farming communities to have mobs of people overwhelming ice because there just aren’t that many people in the middle of nowhere farms.

If you haven’t heard about any resistance activity I strongly recommend you reconsider how and where you consume media.

[–] Alteon@lemmy.world 15 points 17 hours ago

100% this. There's been resistance everywhere over this. Minnesota drove out a bunch of ICE agents from their neighborhoods, there's been major protests all over the US about it. Like... we're for sure doing it.

[–] tamal3@lemmy.world 21 points 21 hours ago (4 children)

ICE is sneaking around the back roads in my city, and a local network sends out warning messages to local immigrants. I'm looking into what I can do as a citizen to make it more difficult for ICE, but I'm impressed by the messaging network that has been set up.

[–] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 4 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Be sure to let them know about privacy services. Don't want them to be tracked doing the lords work.

[–] tamal3@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago) (1 children)

I think they've got this on lock? But if you were to recommend something, what would you tell them? Most immigrants use WhatsApp anyway, which is secure, but i do have a friend who's closely allied with this group.

[–] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 1 points 10 hours ago

WhatsApp doesn't really have as much of the baggage that the rest of Meta does, but it is still their product, so I would move if possible. Signal is another good app to get people on. At least if there is a "core" team that is sourcing and redistributing info around should be made aware of privacy and anonymity, so that the network does not get decapitated so to speak.

The Hated One is a good youtube channel with resources around protesting. The guy is a bit of a paranoid, but his points still stand. He has some vids on how to make a burner phone. Some mesh network apps, and some info about removing metadata on digital files that might get shared around.

As we get serious about protesting we need to be serious about our digital and physical security. We don't want to use pages that can be taken down, nor do we want to give information that will allow ICE to take down our resistance networks in detail.

[–] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 4 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

If they use the same back roads you could set up traps.

[–] pleasegoaway@lemm.ee 3 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Use a drone to drop paint on their windshield when parked.

Or drop liquid ass on the groups of cops/ICE, and/or their cars.

Or if you know an ICE person, anonymously dox them.

[–] tamal3@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

What is liquid ass? I feel like this is a typo but I love it.

It's a big country and unless the protesters have someway of knowing where the raids would happen before hand, you wont see them there. That's why you see them(or don't if the media is suppressing the story) at the detention centers or hotels they're staying at.

Like the scene in Andor. That series was very on point when it comes to the political landscape in the US today.

[–] Bakkoda@sh.itjust.works 10 points 20 hours ago

Almost like authors and artists have been warning us since the beginning of time

Which episode did B5 ever have farm workers running from Stasi? That said, B5 was on the nose with political commentary, they didn’t mask it much.
