People are being killed every day and yet people - including yourself, I’m sure, continue to enjoy their days openly. Or are you miserable and unhappy in everything you do on a day to day basis?
I’m in agreement that the example in the video is weak and performative, but it’s funny to me that these calls for Americans to “DO SOMETHING!!!” always come from those who aren’t going to be the ones making any meaningful sacrifice. It’s keyboard warriors all the way down.
At least these people are letting ICE know they’re still there and paying attention. What have YOU done to help the fight against ICE?
It’s your country, being committed by yourselves, and it’s your responsibility. Who the fuck else in the world do you think could do this except for those inside it, running it at every level of society?
Not my country, thanks. I figured the lemmy.ca might’ve been a hint but that would require paying attention.
You might not be able to directly protest outside of the ICE office, but to say you can’t do anything just reaffirms my point. You CAN do things from outside of the US. You could be helping set up databases of ICE agents, you could target their networks, you could organize with people who ARE in the US, etc.
Instead you go online and tell others how to act or protest. Take your own advice and do something effective if you care about this issue.
