In relation to this, thinking about a new community for Political Activism. Calls to action, that kind of thing.

The rules would be super simple:

  1. Purpose is for protest organizing. [Country, City, State]

  2. Absolutely no calls for violent action.

  3. No links to fundraisers. Too rife for fraud and abuse. Stories about fundraisers would be fine, but no GoFundMes, etc.

Think there’s room for PolticalActivism?

    Okay, but that’s not what was being discussed.

    This analogy only works if you assume the conclusion first — that ICE is equivalent to the Gestapo and therefore any force used against them is justified.

    You said this, and I challenged this claim. You have failed to refute this challenge, and still are.

    The analogy does not need to presuppose that assertion to work.

    Maybe if you were literate and not using an AI to talk for you? Maybe then you could adequately respond.

      The analogy doesn’t actually address the legal standard that matters here. The question in this case isn’t whether ICE is like some historical regime — it’s whether the agent’s use of deadly force met the objectively reasonable imminent‑threat standard under federal and state law.
