Fans of Taylor Swift have been shocked after it emerged that a contractor for the controversial Immigrations and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE) was in attendance at her wedding.

...

It appears that Steven J. Demetriou, the Executive Chair of a company called Amentum Services was also among the crowd gathered to see the happy couple say ‘I do.’

Amentum Services is currently the sole contractor for ICE’s Camp East Montana, a detention centre in El Paso.

The artist has faced swift backlash for her choice of guests, including online commenters who have shared their dismay on social media.

I do not recall saying that human suffering is a necessary evil. I do recall saying that people's value of one another is nuanced. Human suffering isn't a necessary evil, it is just something that exists. Some people suffer more and some people suffer less, but everyone suffers and there isn't anything evil about it.

If slave catchers abduct people, and bring them to a for-profit concentration camp with forced labor, the owner of that camp is evil in my book.

It doesn't matter how good he is at giving blowjobs, there is no room for unrelated nuance. That's an evil person making profit by creating human suffering.

Okay. I disagree with your assessment of the availability of nuance.

What's your nuanced opinion on Hitler?

He's not my cup of tea, but his dog sure loved him.
