Not all of them were like this of course, and there are folks out there dong good 1st amendment auditing type work, but there’s a reason that, on the whole, these types got made fun of.

First as tragedy, then as something else, I think

Eh, can’t say I agree with Thomas Hobbes on this. ICE is acting in the exact opposite of the state of nature, they’re the violent arm of the sovereign
