Cw: doom rant
spoiler
So I think I figured this out. The American economy has relied upon immigrant workers for a long time to do the work that nobody wanted to do. Moreover the American economy has relied on homeless people and near-dwells to act as a cudgel to the middle class. However with the increased movement of jobs to other sectors like India the owners of this country have no more reason to pretend that anybody other than the upper middle class is worth anything to them. By that I mean they will vote for their interests at The ballot box. This current purging is a way to satisfy the hogs while getting rid of people that would be a drain on a society that is about to collapse. The tech and AI sectors are in a huge bubble and are bound to collapse in the face of China. All we really have is waging unpopular forever wars with increasingly despicable client states. Why not Purge the people that you view as a drain on society while emboldening those that you're about to Griff next at the same time.As far as taking care of ice goes, I have no idea I'm not a fed poster
