    The claim that Bluesky “verifies Nazis” because ICE got a blue check is peak absurdity—it’s a government agency enforcing immigration law, not goose-stepping brownshirts.

    Verification confirms identity/authenticity (anti-impersonation), not endorsement, letting users freely mute/block ICE while spotting fakes (pro/anti-ICE sock puppets).

    To the history blind people comparing ICE to Nazis, If ICE were “Nazis,” 2025 inauguration riots get crushed Day 1 with tanks, not due process.

    Reality: routine deportations ≠ death camps.

      it’s a government agency enforcing immigration law, not goose-stepping brownshirts.

      “Enforcing immigration law” = Deporting anybody they think looks too brown

      And yes, they are goose-stepping brownshirts, or at least they wish they were.

          Good one… Let’s only suppress speach we dont like… Take off your progressive glasses and look at what happened then vs. now. If you honestly did, you’d see how lazy of an argument it is.

            Going to go a step further to point out that freedom of speech only applies to people, not organizations. Put on your reading comprehension glasses and see how lazy of a thinker you are.

            Fixed it for you because you can’t recognize the difference between a joke and an argument
