‘American Pie’ actress says she was detained by ICE while trying to renew her work visa: ‘I have never in my life seen anything so inhumane’
-
Some people were born in 1988, also.
And not many of them utlize it in a screen name.
-
the terrorist kill list was a little shady, but it was effective
This is "effective" as well. For Musk/Trump.
Doesn't make it okay.
it's okay when the good guys do it. it's not ok when our enemies do it. goose and gander comparisons should never be made if it justifies your opposition. i'm just trying to get people to understand how wars work. "by any means necessary" is what it takes to win. if the victory defeats an existential threat to humanity, then whatever it took to do it was justified.

They prefer americans
I think it's spelled "Murican"

Summary
"American Pie" actress Jasmine Mooney, a Canadian citizen, was detained by ICE while attempting to renew her work visa at the U.S.-Mexico border on March 3.
She described the experience as a "deeply disturbing psychological experiment," including sleeping on a mat with "aluminum foil wrapped over my body like a dead body," being transported in chains, and receiving inedible food.
Officials allegedly told her she was "unprofessional because I didn't have a proper letterhead" on her paperwork.
After her release, Mooney credited media attention and her support network for securing her freedom.
That's terrible, but let's be real. The only reason why this is news is because she's a white woman.

Yeah. Imo, extra painful because you can tell that she knows what she's arguing for is wrong. Not only does she know she should be ashamed, on some level, deep down in there, she is ashamed, and she's there arguing for it anyway.

The name SARAH FABIAN is now tarnished FOREVER. Just doing your job hu? Well... karma will surely do its job.
You can NOT defend that which is undefendable and expect to get away with it. I've met DOGS with a MUCH HIGHER Moral Standard than you. What an embarrassment to humanity. Sickening.One of the comments on that YouTube video link. Her name will forever go down as filth and disgust. To argue over toothbrush, toothpaste and a warm blanket is wild!

It's just a number. You can make it out to be whatever you want but it's literally just the year I was born. I guess we should crucify every person born in 88. What an idiot.
Oh so just unpleasant then.

Yikes. Everyone thinks they're the good guys. The people of the US cast GW Bush, then Obama, then Trump in the good guy seat and these tools were on the table.
The whole problem with your philosophy of "the ends justify the means" is that that way of thinking is in itself an existential threat to humanity.

of course everyone thinks they're the good guys. no one thinks they're the villain, but you and i know who the good guys are, right? no? well, you can end up in a pile with the rest of my enemies.
you don't get it, do you? whoever wins the war we are in gets to decide who the good guys were. there is no compromise. there never could be. it's always been a war. and it will be over when one side capitulates. don't be on the losing team.
you think the other side won't do whatever it takes to win? they're doing it now. do you want them to win? then you need to be prepared to do whatever it takes to stop them. THIS IS HOW WARS WORK. don't think we're in one? you're delusional.

don’t be on the losing team.
Really was not expecting to see an openly fascist US nationalist on Lemmy of all places, but I guess it was only a matter of time.
well, you can end up in a pile with the rest of my enemies.
If I wanted to be threatened by some bootlicker child from the other side of the world, I would be on the chans or playing Rust.
We're done here.

I found it very uplifting that in her own written piece, she spent much of it highlighting and telling the stories of others.
-

Don't ask questions you don't want answers to.
-
To some degree though that's exactly why this should be more alarming: the current administration ISN'T just doing this to easy targets they know the population will ignore. If they're doing this to a nice white Canadian woman instead of brown people they can easily disappear without being noticed, that means they're getting a lot braver.

You're getting downvoted but it's important that we remember this. She's hot, she's white, she's an actress. She said herself she thinks it's thanks to her friends and family working with the media that she got released at all. I bet she'd agree with you that being white played into her favor here.
Think about all the people who don't have those types of resources or public empathy points. We have no idea who is actually locked up right now or what will happen to them.
-
and if people don't think political dissidents are on the list, they're delusional. we may not be the priority yet, but they're checking off demographics at an alarming rate.
-
You're more respectful then the person you are responding to deserves.
-
Hey man, what's with the 88? You do know what that is tied to right?
Hopefully their birth year

Inhumane treatment to someone like her is probably how a blue collar worker is treated in everyday life in the states. Must suck to be a millionaire actress with connections. To be treated like a pawn like the rest of us.
