god they look stupid. why is the only thing they don't copy from nazi germany consistent uniforms?

[–] KnitWit@lemmy.world 19 points 2 weeks ago

Thought a similar thing when that video of the guy in Minneapolis bringing out the big machine gun came out the other day. They look like a multiplayer lobby in some fps game who all have different cosmetics on, just beyond dumb. And then you get Bovino walking around in that dumbass duster and it really shows how much these guys are going for that tacticool look.

It is sort of funny, part of the reason Nazi ideology has the lasting power it does is probably because of their aesthetics and intimidating/'strong' fascist image, but when people look at ICE and MAGA in the future (and today) they'll be like "wow look at these losers."

Hard to tell from the image quality but it looks like he could be wearing something like Meta Glasses that record and display info, good reminder that if you are going to interact with these goons you should always expect they could be filming you.

Meta AI glasses in blue/silver with dark lenses

So if I ever go to USA for some reason, and I see these guys, I just start stripping?

[–] Soggy@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Do not come to the USA until we've gotten rid of these guys.

Or the federal government has collapsed. Probably won't be able to get rid of many of them in that situation, they strike me as record burners.

I want to call him The Brightest Person of ICE and turn him into emoji.

It's all from Temu and Amazon

[–] Sharkticon@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

I wonder how it would be if the protesters and observers bought the same shit off of Amazon and such and wore it while monitoring these Nazi bastards.

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

As someone who collects actual surplus like a particularly demented crow. I would not lower myself to such pitiful standards, also my shit would actually work even if it is 40 years out of date minimum.

[–] HurricaneLiz@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Lol particularly demented crow 😂💜

Well I haven't seen it, but I'd like to see a lot more if it is.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 weeks ago

GOV X DOT COM !

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 10 points 2 weeks ago

So they look like a criminal gang instead of an official government agency. Makes them easier to confuse with home invaders that can be shot.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago

It's because they bought it all themselves from different companies because none of this was thought out or planned in any way.
