How do we now tell the difference between sex trafficking abduction or child kidnapping and ICE? Do we just look away?
ICE shows up in unmarked vans, plainclothes officers, no warrant, threatening anybody who tries to intervene, no answering questions, confiscating phones of anyone in that area recording video, telling people to mind their own business. Essentially, training citizens to tune out, to look away.

1) kill all white-collar jobs and replace them with AI
2) kill universities
3) use tariffs to turn the U.S. into an economic island manufacturing, oil and ag hub
4) empty the cities
5) push men into manual labor & women back into the kitchen
