A few weeks ago: "regime change is bad" was updated to "regime change is good". This was a great success, so now new updates are being released.
Now, there is a new update: "must not be infringed" now means "if you're carrying a concealed gun at a protest, you are a domestic terrorist and will be summarily executed after being disarmed and restrained."
Please prepare for your next update, due to be released in a couple of months. In "We oppose Middle Eastern quagmires", strike the word 'oppose' and insert 'support'.
Thank you for your attention to this matter, and remember to keep trusting the plan.
FWIW, I'm not criticizing ICE (this wasn't even ICE). I'm criticizing these guys and administration officials.
But here's the deal. What do you think will make ICE more hated? If people think they can be killed by ICE with impunity, or if they think there is some rule and procedure to use of force? Did the previous "ICE killing", more justified than this one, increase or decrease opposition to ICE?
Opposing accountability comes back to bite people. But it's OK if you want to claim I'm the enemy.
I agree, and that is why I am going back and forth with another user about accountability in this thread. Public perception is important so long as we are subject to the wills of any room temperature IQ normie capable of dragging themselves to the polls to vote.
The problem is when people get frenzied and frothing at the mouth over it and don't attach the appropriate qualifiers. I saw plenty of conservatives yesterday retweeting and amplifying known terrible people who have 90% the wrong message just because they agreed with the one part where they said they don't like this shooting. People need to keep their heads on straight and be pragmatic.
Are there that many conservatives who don't agree with this shooting? If so, I'm impressed, leaving aside the strategic issue of whether it is wise to amplify posts with 90% wrong messages.
I have seen some but I have also seen plenty of them who are in favor of it and exacerbating any public relations L taken from the incident. I can't say I follow enough of them, or consooom enough social media to accurately say how prevalent each group is. But I did see a fair amount of both.
