That's so open-minded of them. Everyone is welcome.

So... if your visa has expired... can you just join ICE instead?

[–] OshagHennessey@lemmy.world 14 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

Everyone apply for ICE!

Either the system gets so bogged down they can't recruit anyone, or we end up outnumbering them. Either way, we resist them.

[–] DarkSpectrum@lemmy.world 12 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

it would be hilarious if ICE was full of anti trump personnel

If just one ICE agent in 50 were a low-key saboteur just quietly, "accidentally" fucking up every single thing that comes their way, it would be disastrous for ICE

I'm gleefully imagining the Truth Social rant where he calls ICE woke

[–] BiteSizedZeitGeist@lemmy.world 3 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

I wanna get that 50K signing bonus and then just bail out

Or just applying and forgetting just to tie up their system

[–] OshagHennessey@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago

Read the fine print for the sign-on bonus to make sure. Either sounds like a worthy use of time, but everyone needs to decide for themselves what they're willing to do for the resistance; don't pick a fight just because some guy on the internet said it was a good idea.

Whatever your choice, you're the only one who will suffer the consequences of it, so it only needs to satisfy you.

Are background checks woke?

[–] 0x0 9 points 23 hours ago

Do they check citizenship?

[–] FringeTheory999@lemmy.world 7 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

If true we could all sign up and waste a lot of their time.

[–] GenosseFlosse@feddit.org 3 points 21 hours ago

Why not get hired and also submit your daily timesheets to get paid?

[–] Randelung@lemmy.world 24 points 1 day ago (4 children)

It's by design. If you want to hire bottom of the barrel, you can't have any standards or loops to jump through, or you might lose applicants. As a bonus, people who recognize this won't even apply. As another bonus, articles keep spawning that make ICE out to be a badly run organisation of idiots, when in reality it's actually exactly what it's meant to be and run by ruthless fascists.

I wonder if I should tell My disabled nonbinary partner to sign up for ICE, grab the 50 grand, and flee the country with it

[–] OshagHennessey@lemmy.world 10 points 23 hours ago

Do it. Crime is legal now.

[–] Rooster326@programming.dev 27 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

The sign on bonus is a retention bonus for staying 5 years. You, myself, the entire world know he is not good for paying bills.

Every single member eligible hire will be let go at 4 Years 354 days, or just not paid at all. See the $2,000 Check they were going to send to every American.

[–] evol@lemmy.today 4 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

5 years is crazy, even Elon companies don't make you wait 5 years for a vest

[–] Rooster326@programming.dev 4 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago) (1 children)

It's because the election is a 4 year cycle. He will either be dead, in jail, or emperor supreme by the time the 5 years is up so he will never have to pay.

The Minnesota subreddit apparently knows ICE Agent Greg Bovino.

Hello, Minneapolis resident here but I didn’t always live in Minneapolis. Once, long ago I lived in a quiet little mountain town of Boone, NC. Guess who else grew up there? A pathetic squat little toad named Gregory Bovino. Well, that squat little toad grew up to be a squat little Nazi toad who has decided to come to my beautiful adopted home to torture, murder, and terrorize my friends and neighbors. He is personally going door to door, so if you see him, here’s a few very specific things from home you can politely yell at him:

“Hey Greg! Remember how your Dad murdered a woman in Blowing Rock while driving drunk? Like father like son I guess.”

I wish there weren't so many items on that list that are far-fetched and weird, so I could believe it.

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 10 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Nice work! However, an ICE agent is an ICE agent...get the rope!

[–] theQuickBrownFox@lemmy.today 11 points 1 day ago

name checks out

[–] OshagHennessey@lemmy.world 2 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

If the regime rises to power, commits atrocities, and you're still an agent when it's over, sure.

If you get in early, be part of the resistance, and help keep the atrocities from happening, then no.

[–] piccolo@sh.itjust.works 1 points 13 hours ago

You'll still want people on the inside. Where they can sabotage and hinder the regime. And ultimately be eyewitnesses for the trials when its all over.

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 1 points 19 hours ago

Hmm, humor exists.

[–] Nikelui@lemmy.world 154 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Americans have the opportunity to do a very funny thing now...

[–] abbadon420@sh.itjust.works 51 points 2 days ago (3 children)

I wonder if I, a european, could get enlisted with ICE. Would they be dumb enough for that?

Phew! At LEAST they're Allowing these Unknown and Heavily Armed Men into our Schools and Kidnapping our Children!

[–] calliope@retrolemmy.com 49 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Don’t forget that every single one of those unknown, heavily armed men are choosing to be ICE. They want to do that.

Imagine being so bereft of a conscience that you put on a mask and camo for Donald Trump.

A significant number are probably people who were convicted of crimes relating to January 6th, 2021 and now have free rein to do what they want.

Imagine them hiring undocumented migrants and never finding out about it

If we end up making it through midterms without martial law, at the very least they've put themselves together in a nice list to deal with once cleanup takes place.
