Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Does ICE get overtime pay for this cosplay?
It’s so obvious that ICE uniforms are designed to copy fascist activist groups like Patriot Front.
Sad that the good citizens of DC didn't give them the welcome they so richly deserve.
When are Americans going to respond ?
Maybe after they're done walking the streets with confederate flags?
Same people that refused to mask for COVID
You can identify them by their unique beer guts.

Convenient of them to wear hats with the an actual literal fasces, the original symbol for and namesake of fascism, just to remove any plausible deniability of their intent.
I always find it funny when racists are so proud to be racist that they hide their face when showing the world how racist they are.
Because they're such chickenshit micro dick snowflakes
They are continuing the American tradition of white supremacist organizations invading cites they don't live in to intimidate people they hate.
Lots of white supremacist live in EVERY city. But you're correct otherwise.
At least they had the balls (though small ones) to show their faces

And encountered no one giving a fuck. They wanted interaction, and found no one to engage with 'em.
Best to ignore the idiots.
That's what the ICE boys do when they're not deporting innocent people.
If they truly believed in their message they wouldn't hide their faces. Cowards
I get the sentiment but there are plenty of valid reasons to hide one's face. I believe strongly in protecting immigrants and resisting ICE. I hide my face to protect myself and my family. Cowards aren't on the streets so they don't have to cover their faces. Cowards are those that stay inactive and don't fight back when masked fascist come to hurt their neighbors.
These guys aren't cowards and they definitely believe their message of hate. Saying they are cowards is a way for you to pretend they aren't a threat. That you don't have to do anything when our government supports them. They are a threat. They hide their faces because there ARE people fighting back against them.
They aren't cowards BUT they are weak. Because there are a lot more of us then them. But we aren't all organized like they are. If you and I don't organize against them, and push them out of every public space when they do this, one day they won't worry about wearing a mask.
They don't deserve the validation
They are already validated by our government. Every single one of these guys is a member of ICE. I'm validating what they represent as a threat; not validating their beliefs as true.
Pretending that neonazis are cowards that will not fight or that they won't die for their beliefs in white supremacy is not helpful. It's pretending that they are not a threat.
Hiding your face because you oppose the state and hiding your face even though you have the backing of the state are entirely different things.
Yes. That's essentially what my comment said.
Nah they're cowards. Racists operate on fear of the other. Fear and cowardice are all they know. If they didn't fear ppl who didnt look like them they'd have to accept they're responsible for their own failures.
I understand what you're saying but this might not be the beat way to describe it.
I think their supremacist beliefs are held in the core of their being. They may on some level know they're not superior to anyone else, but they do believe that they deserve to be treated as superior.
They're cowards because they understand that their beliefs are not acceptable and there will be consequences in their lives that they're unwilling to encounter.
They need a modern day tar 'n feathering. Water balloons/super soakers of some sticky substance (rubber cement? elmers glue? latex paint?) followed by air cannons of tinsel?
So, the police showed up in civilians.
Some of those that work forces are the same that burn crosses
Some of those that burn crosses are the same that hold office.
Racism parade: A-OK
touching paint: life in prison
This looks familiar...
(Watchmen 2019)
I hate Illinois Nazis
In 2015 I would've said this just isn't possible.
Truly the most abhorrent behavior.
I hope a whole lot of these little dweebs are identified and fired. :)
Why are they using public transit? Isn't that what communists use? Should be they be driving their private, gas-guzzling vehicles, complete with Truck Nutz?
If we photograph their license plates, they can be figured out. That’s why. They are hiding.
Because if they drove then you'd see their license plates
Because they are giant pussies and don't want to be doxxed.

The best way to deal with them is yell a random name the person who looks say I thought that was you,. Your employer is going to hear about it
I would prefer the purifying sweep of a machine gun.
Well that works
How can they breath with those on? Must be big supporters of social distancing. /s

Fucking disgrace, how fitting for this shithole
That's the freedom Trump gives you: you're free to be a racist, backwards asshole.
Remember Heather Heyer.
Patriot Front was birthed from the anal prolapses of Vanguard. I think she might have been the first Trump death in 2016.
Could be wrong.
