Absolutely begging libs to stop spreading these absurd "ICE agents are really militia members" conspiracy theories. It makes you look profoundly stupid, *and* it's a really great way to avoid confronting the reality of American policing. This is what cops are. This is what cops do. Accept it.

The scary part isn't that they might be militia agents, but that cartels can masquerade as ICE with no recourse from the community. When warrants and courts aren't mandatory, criminals can pretend to be anyone.
There's a propaganda war. If the left isn't allowing themselves to lie they're tying one hand behind their back. Maybe both hands.
It's always been this way. Accept it.
Congrats libs, you really owned the Left of your own voter base that pleaded with you to stop supporting fascist death squads.
Either way, If they’re breaking laws following illegal orders they may be prosecuted when Trump is impeached. If they’re violating individual’s human rights, they can be sued. The government can be compelled to ID them
Right wingers can't save us.
One thing to consider is the effect on the actions of law enforcement officers that letting them dress up like violent militia members has.
But op seems to be calling anyone suggesting that there’s a ramping up recruitment effort occurring within American militias (those folks long “standing down & standing by”…) as stupid. It’s naive not to acknowledge the recruitment efforts happening *right now*

No, end it!
I think both of these things can be true
