What about 6 federal “agents” beating up and summarily executing someone who is just protesting them on a public street? Is that fascism?

[flagged]

It happened today. Literally go to ANY news site.

People want to know the identity of law enforcement to dox them. Police, federal agents, lawyers, and judges can be pressured by criminals and organized crime. That’s a thing, you know that right?

That is far down the list of reasons someone might want to know who is performing actions against them with the backing of the federal government. Much higher on the list would be accountability if they do something wrong or to reference them in any follow up legal or administrative interactions they might have in the giant immigration system. How many judges hide their identity?

Doxxing is the first and most obvious reason. Federal agents aren’t directly subject to the public, their respective agencies and the President hold them accountable.

Not so many with the masked unidentified death squads though, at least not in the G20.

Then don’t be a cop, if you’re too scared. Law enforcement barely has any accountability as it is. Legit LEO do not hide their identity because they are accountable to the population they serve.

This has now been flagged twice today when it has a legitimate tech/privacy angle. Unbelievable.

I am regularly reminded that this site is filled not just with tech enthusiasts, but bootlickers that would do the dirty work of Zuck, Musk, and the current administration, all for a pat on the head and a few crumbs off the fascist plate.

I'm well aware that defending the existence of masked unidentified death squads is a thing in some North American countries, yes.

It is also common in some South American countries, eg: Venezuela.

The current POTUS is on record stating point blank he will not hold ICE and DHS agents accountable.

Currently theer is no effective Federal investigation into the earlier murder by ICE in MN, the DOJ, FBI, etc. have been directed to look to the motivations of the victim rather than the illegal traffic stop and boxing in by agents.

Okay? What point are you trying to make?

I’m not making a point, a made an observation.

No, you didnt. You basically said illigal immigration is bad because its illegal. You didnt include positive effects, like economic contribution. That positive conclusion about immigration is scientific consensus btw. Its easy to find if you dare to observe it.

I mean, yeah, that's how volks have always justified having secret police. That's probably literally the only justification for secret police.

Congrats on being in favor of secret police, I guess....
