  • That may be so, but the problem is getting a statistically significant number of people to participate and go unnoticed. People are already being arrested for interfering with ICE. If they have a bad employee, they will get fired. If they think that employee intentionally let people get away, they will be arrested. If they think there is a conspiracy to create hundreds of bad employees (which is what we are doing here), then they will investigate and find a reason to arrest en masse.

  • If it's something serious, yes.

    Good, then it is a bit less of a bad tool in this instance. Just don’t lose the habit of checking your sources—it’s a slippery slope.

  • Do you ask for the sources every time?

  • But you can’t see the source of the information, which means it could be a reputable source, or it could be Joe-Sucks-His-Own-Dick from Reddit. In another comment, I pointed out that AI was telling people to put glue on pizza to keep the cheese from falling off—if you can see the source, you are much more likely to understand the veracity of the information.

  • Not trusting Chat-GPT results, which are known to hallucinate false information, as your primary search method is a silly take? AI was telling people to put glue on pizza to keep the cheese from falling off. If you can see that the source of that information is a Reddit shitpost, you are way more likely to make a good judgment call about the veracity of that information.

    If you want searches without sponsored results, use SearXNG or an equivalent that strips out the ads.

  • Talk about being part of the problem.

  • It is definitely a fun thing to think about, just not realistically feasible as the person I was responding to was hoping for.

  • Yes, the knick-knacks are my most prized possessions. Crystal balls, monkey skulls, old clocks—these are the building blocks of my happiness. Nothing brings me more joy than a perfectly arranged curio cabinet. It is like an OCD orgasm.

  • They have been taking pictures and using facial recognition at protests, they are adept at scouring people’s online footprint, and they have thousands of employees. How do you plan to get a statistically significant number of sympathetic people into their ranks undetected, and then keep them there as they throw a wrench in the works?

    This is a pipe dream.

  • Obviously, I just currently live in El Paso, so it is accessible. I’m considering CDMX or Merida, but Juarez isn’t so bad other than the aesthetic. I prefer spending time there than El Paso, tbh.

    I figure if I enjoy Juarez, then I basically enjoy all of Mexico, lol. There aren’t many towns tougher than Ciudad Juarez, and yet I still feel like I belong there.

  • 100%. I love Mexico and have been heavily considering moving here (I’m sitting in Ciudad Juarez as we speak). It is an amazing country—if more Americans traveled here, I firmly believe there would be less hatred for its people.

  • Mexico is an amazing country. Americans underestimate their resilience and value to the continent. They have their problems, but they also have their priorities straight in some areas—more so than America.

  • Odd, wasn’t me. 🤷‍♂️

  • Legitimate threats aren’t a shitpost.

  • “Enough is enough, I’ve had it with these monkey fighting snakes on this Monday to Friday plane. Everybody strap in. I’m about to open some freakin’ windows, mate.”

  • I heard that plenty in East Texas too.

  • I saw "send Trump rushing" and I really hoped it was followed by "to the hospital morgue bowels of hell"
