Well, that sounds oddly familiar. Isn't that pretty much what OVRA did in Italy and NKVD did in the USSR. Actually, this is really beginning to sound a lot like a rerun of the entire 1930s.

Remember, y'all - according to NSPM-7, they can and will consider anything they don't like as terrorism. Alex Pretti was a "domestic terrorist" before he hit the ground because NSPM-7 allows qualifying anyone that is near ICE and literally even looks at them wrong as either a domestic terrorist or organized political violence.

Some interpretations see this as effectively declaring at-will Martial Law.

I guess we need to leave Lemmy.world to have free speech and use a Lemmy server hosted outside US, in some feee country or democracy.

Lemmy.world is not hosted in the US.

That’s exactly what I do. I also toss everything into multi-hop VPN tunnels because I’m insane (and I block as much as I can with DNS). I even host my email offshore.
