    There's a reason ICE conceal their faces.

    They know what they're doing is wrong and don't want to be held accountable if their fascist rule collapses.

      Some beliefs require retribution. Some causes are righteous. Fuck off with your false equivalencies. Rioters aren’t employed by the people- law enforcement is.

            So the people doing the snatching are gig workers? Is there a TaskRabbit for fascism?

              Mass protests where people did nothing in particular. That is, in fact, not resistance. People in LA are actually making it harder for ICE to terrorize them.

              I would argue the opposite. You haven't noticed the National Guard and Marines being deployed there?

                Because criminals get out of jail and can go after their families. We had someone leave a bomb on the doorstep of a judge in our neighborhood.

                  It is. What happened on June 14th was technically a mass protest, but it has none of the aspects that make a mass protest effective. In essence, that wasn't a protest; it was a parade. They can, in theory, be used as a launching point for something more effective, but on their own? Yeah, nothing.

                  You haven't noticed the National Guard and Marines being deployed there?

                  Okay and? They were deployed because ICE wasn't able to do their jobs, and even now they're suffering widespread harassment and obstruction. Not getting backlash because you did nothing isn't the flex you think it is.

                    No. Those are gravy Seal wannabees. Ice isn't doing anything on the streets. They are doing the behind the scenes stuff. Deputized bounty hunters are the ones in the streets. No badge, no authority, and as you know instantly disavowed.

                      No. There probably isn't more violence anywhere else yet though.

                        So just use one too and blend in. Put on a stupid Trump or racist hat, and if you are not white, put on gloves. Then surround them.

                            The point I'm trying to make is that everyone is wearing a mask for the same reason: to prevent retribution for their beliefs and according actions.

                            They don't "know what they're doing is wrong", they just know that other people think that and will target them for it, which is the exact same reason protestors wear them.

                            the government should always identify itself to the people

                            the people should, by default, not be identified by the government

                            the power imbalance is important: the government is a large and powerful entity which is meant to serve the people without prejudice. people are individually small, and only gain their power from being a large group. the government is given power by the people in order for it to perform tasks beneficial to all, and must be accountable to the people

                              No, real obstruction of fascist activity. And, you know, turning out on a weekday. Mass protests work because, aside from the implicit threat of violence, they grind economic activity to a halt. That is simply not what happens when you parade for two hours on a Saturday.

                                Cameras. They fucking hate body cameras. When it clears them of wrongdoing, they have the video ready. When they 'accidentally' shoot a guy nine times in the back of the head, video seems to be missing.

                                I heard a bit on NPR over the weekend talking about copaganda. Turns out body cams are beneficial to cops, because they can take that footage and selectively edit and release it to push a certain narrative.

                                If you've ever seen a clip on social media, it often starts a few seconds before the cop hits someone, rarely showing the full sequence of events that led up to that point.

                                And if they can't edit the footage to make them look good? "Oops, we didn't retrieve that footage in time so it was overwritten."

                                  No. Most cameras have filters to cut non-visible light.

                                  And any EM that passes through a mask is probably going to pass through flesh too. And any EM that's transmitted and not reflected means it can't be imaged by a sensor.

                                  Very thin fabric, like a thin white T-shirt, can be transparent to IR in bright sunlight. But that's a fairly rare case.

                                    I'm a librarian. I also work with members of the public, some of whom do not share my understanding of reality. My information is still public because I'm a government employee.

                                    Why would a librarians info need to be public? Does America require a public database of public servants?

                                      Surely there's no reason to hide.

                                      Whether what you've done is entirely legal (or not) authoritariaism doesn't care.

                                      What is done in a free society is punished by small men with anger control issues.

                                      What you may find reasonable to say in a free society, could, under a government opposed to free expression, land you in el Segundo - without your wallet.

                                      The gestapo hide their faces because they know what they do is wrong, and to hide from justice.

                                      People who protest or simply appreciate privacy do so because they understand the potential for retribution and being disappeared.

                                        Surely there's no reason to hide.

                                        Whether what you've done is entirely legal (or not) authoritariaism doesn't care.

                                        What is done in a free society is punished by small men with anger control issues.

                                        What you may find reasonable to say in a free society, could, under a government opposed to free expression, land you in el Segundo - without your wallet.

                                        The gestapo hide their faces because they know what they do is wrong, and to hide from justice.

                                        People who protest or simply appreciate privacy do so because they understand the potential for retribution and being disappeared.

                                        Please post the entirety of your online history. Surely there's no reason to hide.

                                        ...we're talking about hiding though

                                        Whether what you've done is entirely legal (or not) authoritariaism doesn't care.

                                        That goes both ways. That was my entire point.

                                          Nonsensical general destruction of your neighbors' property?

                                          No, real obstruction of fascist activity. And, you know, turning out on a weekday. Mass protests work because, aside from the implicit threat of violence, they grind economic activity to a halt. That is simply not what happens when you parade for two hours on a Saturday.

                                          You're using a bunch of general language. Why don't you want to say what makes a protest effective?

                                          Mass protests work because, aside from the implicit threat of violence, they grind economic activity to a halt.

                                          Good luck not getting fired.
