The impulse is emotional. Abolish ICE is simple. But politically, it is lethal.

    “abolish ice” is the compromise position

      I know the hexbear take on this, but we need to pitch liberals on “prosecute ICE or fuck off (after it is abolished)”

      Needs a bit of workshopping to get it to fit on a bumper sticker, but in order for your comment to be true, there needs to be a quantity of people beyond that. The more extreme positions are certainly out there, but they won’t carry the numbers alone.

          Let’s get it well rooted as the center-left position.

          Let’s also take a moment to point out that the Biden administration did nothing to prevent this, even after “abolish ice” and “kids in cages” were loudly shouted back in 2018.

    GTA: Vice City is a full year older than the formation of ICE. The Nintendo GameCube predates both ICE and the DHS. Liberals act like our nazi agencies are these eternal pillars of American society and yet have barely existed a few decades.

    Yes I date things according to video games get off my case

      Honestly, there is something to that, make people realize how much stuff has been around longer than ICE and the DHS.

      Like, Ric Flair’s whole wrestling career went on for longer than they’ve been around.

      The US also wasn’t founded with police. They didn’t exist until much, much later. People look at you like you’re a talking horse if you try and bring this up.

    What bothers me about this isn’t Third Way adopting a weaselly triangulation that appeals to no one. That’s a “fork found in kitchen” situation.

    No, it’s this:

    Third Way, in a memo to Democrats shared first with NBCNews

    Putting the thinnest, slimiest veneer of journalism on what is just PR boosting. There’s no news here, nothing of importance, just some lanyards’ opinion being laundered as news; the headline doesn’t identify who is warning, giving the impression of this being a general sentiment, and the body fails to make clear the political bias of the group in question.

    Reactionary reformism, you love to see it.

    “We can’t get rid of the president’s private unaccountable personal army, that would negate the political incentive to make it slightly better”
