Yep. Even perfectly normal visa renewals often include brief periods of technically undocumented status during various paperwork delays and such. Historically that wasn’t a big deal because no one was getting disappeared over an immigration civil infraction, but here were are now. All those little gaps in the system are opportunities to randomly deport working people for no reason.

I was just up in Santa Ana yesterday (the foam store on Main Street), and I don’t know if it was me projecting, but it sure seemed like the vibe of the area is a lot different than I remember.

He wants to move them off the island so he can turn it into a trump resort.

Don’t forget, these processing centers are really meant for long-term use, not just the short-term excuse of cleaning up the illegals. Once they’ve tackled the immigration problem, which shouldn’t take long with their massive numbers and budget, they’ll have to use those facilities for something else.

The future business model of the United States will be to incarcerate everybody who violates the law even a little bit, and then rent them out as prison slave labor, and these facilities will house that labor.

And it won’t just be “criminals.” If AI, Robotics, and Slave Labor take your job away, you’ll be able to get government assistance, perhaps even UBI, in exchange for living in the Labor Camps, and volunteering to be a slave.

The AG of Guam has invited ICE to come and ply their trade there…

They’re building concentration camps for undesirables. Why does it surprise you that they’re building one in a colony full of people they don’t like?

That’s like being surprised that the Nazis built concentration camps in Poland.

We haven’t even tried our most powerful non-violent tactic yet: a proper, long-term, nation wide General Strike.

The country would be brought to its knees if suddenly deprived of profit and labor, allowing us to simply ignore the democrats and their lack of spine, and instead demand real changes (abolishing ICE should be towards the top of the list).

That tactic was extremely effective in Chile in 2019, and had they not fallen for the trick of liberal reform, they would’ve had a successful revolution on their hands with virtually no bloodshed.

There are some concrete steps all of us can take toward enacting that hard-core general strike to make it more viable and bearable for us all. (the titles below expand if you click them).

I’d also highly recommend Full Spectrum Resistance to anyone who wants further info on how to resist (audiobook version here).

Right now, people are using nonviolent civil resistance, and keeping the guns as a backstop to prevent massacres.

Don’t fire till you see the whites of their eyes.

.ca pushing for an armed rebellion. Why is it all these .ca accounts seem to be passing for violence?

I wonder if reaching out to MAGA voters and offer dissolving the two mainstream political parties at the same time would work.

Oakbrook, IL is pretty white and affluent so not sure on that one.

The one I recognize is in a very white pro-trump type area on the outskirts of a very blue area. Seems like they are setting up base where they feel safe and are a stones throw away from the areas they want to terrorize.

Yes, they target less white and less affluent areas.

I’d be more surprised if it was mostly white neighborhoods. They want to round up immigrants, particularly the ones that are not white.

The one 30min from my house is in a very white suburb.

I was wondering if those are places where they wanted to control suppress the vote, too, like in Minneapolis.

The Indiana one is super white, super rich, and also super liberal.

The Woodlands is just outside of Houston and is very white, very affluent, and very Republican.

The OKC location looks to be downtown, in a business district.

EDITED TO ADD: Be aware that there is open and proven mass manipulation of votes taking place in this thread, and that the call to violence above to which I am responding is a part of that orchestrated effort to manipulate via manufactured approval/disapproval. Just so you know. Screenshots follow further on down the line.

I’m not angry at your message, I’m angry at your willful ignorance.

Protesting is the first step, not the last. It’s how you meet your community and find out how, contrary to the lying media and firehose of propaganda, you are NOT alone, and all the different ways others are making their own difference the same way you want to. It’s how you personally begin to recognize where real power lies, and think about how you personally can add to that unified voice.

That alone is HUGE. You clearly don’t remember Friday, January 30 here in the US. It is when people simultaneously started walking out in all 50 states to protest this regime’s hold on power. It was so frightening to them they released the latest tranche of the Epstein files because they were losing the perception game, had been for days, and that was the only thing they had left to drown out the voice of millions of pissed off Americans all wanting the same thing.

But all that unity and reclaiming of individual power started last summer with No Kings.

And the National Guard is OUT of LA and Portland and Chicago because of court orders calling their presence there illegal BECAUSE the violence the National Guard were called to quell did not exist in reality.

Right this minute, as I type this, we do NOT have martial law in the US because of the savvy and wisdom of LA and Chicago and especially Minneapolis, who learned after George Floyd and aren’t giving in to the provocation game: instead of more ICE they have less, and the world’s sympathetic attention to boot.

THAT is what got us all off our asses on January 30. NOT violence, but the active resistance of provocation thereto.

But hey, you know best. Go ahead and school us on all the successful violent protests in the US in the last fifty years, which will begin with you ignoring everything I just wrote and insisting the opposite is true while pulling fact-free arguments out of your ass to bolster your spurious position, and then I link the court orders and you ignore those too, and then you call me names and I ignore those too . . .

Or you could just back the fuck up and STOP trying to incite violence just because you wanna see Americans fight each other for your own entertainment, which is what this all comes down to because the number of successful VIOLENT protests in the US in the last fifty years is precisely zero.

Violence isn’t going to improve this situation. And peaceful protests DO work. Learn some history.

I didn’t think all the locations listed are for concentration camps. It seems like it’s just increased office space.

Concentration camps might be part of it, it they’re a separate list.

BIPOC, LGBT folks, ppl with disability especially mental, ppl with autism, women who’ve had abortions (including but not limited to miscarriage)

Concentration camps. Death camps. I suspect they’ve killed people already in the detention centers. Can’t prove it, of course, I expect we won’t see proof unless the regime falls

Talk with folks around you about the closest one. It makes a difference

I’m trying my hardest to figure out what this is. My working theory is an anthropomorphic rastah mushroom hitting a bong.

I’d be a little bit hesitant about that kind of inference. Per the article:

It does not include more than 100 planned ICE locations across many states—including California, New York, and New Jersey—where WIRED has not viewed every specific address.

So there are a whole lot more locations that aren’t public yet. It feels more like they’re simply trying to take the Minnesota approach national, and levy war on the whole country at once, rather than specifically target elections.

The plan is to send ICE agents to polling location and pull up everyone that “looks like an immigrant” WHICH IS PERFECTLY LEGAL TO DO (thanks supreme court) and detain them for “verification”, oops, I guess you are a citizen, shame you couldn’t vote.

This is also why they are attacking mail-in-ballots because this doesn’t work if brown people can vote from home.

They’re not getting a vote. Big T was pretty clear about that before
