    Nothing says protecting people in the bathroom like constantly monitoring them and keeping track of everyone that uses them.

    WHY would anyone, in this day and age, volunteer to become a fascist bootlicking piece of shit member of the military? I can’t respect anyone who is ok with this.

          I just read that they were hiring thousands of new ICE agents to round up illegals. Who do you think is going to sign up for that duty? And get paid for it, too? Not the best and brightest, we know that.

              Whoa.

              But there were also a handful of women ICE applicants and a lot of men of color. The deportation officer applicant pool was, I felt, shockingly diverse—one might say it looked like America.

              People attempting to hide in the belly of the beast, perhaps? I wonder how that’s gonna work out.

                I suspect many are just looking for a paycheck. ICE agents are slated to be pretty well paid from what I’ve read. We just handed over a historic amount of money to them as well, and even though I expect a large amount of institutional corruption, a significant percentage of it is going to go to personnel.

                  In addition to obscene salaries they’re likely robbing detainees of any cash and personal items they were carrying. No due process or criminal charges means that there’s pretty much no legal requirement to keep or return personal items like police normally do (TSA has been robbing travelers for years too) ICE can pretty much do what ever they want with it because the detainees aren’t able to complain or press charges.

                  So yeah, pretty lucrative. Gold is sky rocketing so lots of wedding rings and watches are headed to pawn shops. Nazis pretty much did the same during the holocaust.

    Americans are so weird.

    They’re also so dumb that they can’t see that this entire bathroom thing is just one giant distraction

      No shit. The solution is easy too. Make every bathroom non-gendered with ceiling to floor walls and doors on the stalls and cameras in the washing up area. Add a guard or attendant if you feel like you have to.

        Or, you know, make all your bathrooms gender neutral. Problem solved, if there was a problem to begin with. There never was a problem though, it’s all just made up and blown up by the likes of fox News which, somehow, is still legally broadcasting their lies over and over to brainwash the US populace.

        It’s weird and creepy
