   so, ICE may no longer be allowed, on paper, to separate families.

   BUT THIS ISN'T EVEN CLOSE TO OVER

   ICE needs to be dismantled, but so do the systems that allow/encourage groups like ICE to form and operate in the first place.

   incarceration and deportation of migrants is inhumane period.

   also how do we know ICE is even gonna play by the rules? have we not learned anything from how people in power act, cops for instance? our president? c'mon now

      we haven't done anything but cause the president to do something trivial to try and shut us up, to stem any backlash.

      this isn't a win, this is a distraction.

      and protesting isn't enough. especially peaceful protest.

      we need to do more, rather than use this as an excuse to do less.

         ICE is a convenient group to blame for all these atrocities but we forget that ICE was made because the government wanted it, and because the people that voted for them and donated to them demanded it.

         our system is absolutely fucked and it's up to us to do something, because nobody else will, and because it's our responsibility.
