    In France we have people on far-right billionaire-funded yet widely popular TV channel openly advocating for the adoption of ICE tactics.

    We’ve also already got special administrative prisons with inhumane conditions for undocumented migrants for a while. Likewise, on paper, the far-right has never participated in any government since 1945.

    Let’s not forget that the EU has delegated arbitrary arrest and violent policing of migrants to other states for quite a while now.

    Dark times ahead, we need to fight now, but, indeed, also prepare for a worsening of the situation.

      Yes, and don’t forget a bunch of EU countries just signed up with Palantir too. So it’s definitely coming to Europe. I think they’re trying to separate us Americans that disagree with this from the rest of the world so we have no one.

      This is a global class war. Of course they’re going to pick out the big target. If they succeed in isolating us the rest of the western world is easy pickings.
