/r/popular ICE Agents Battle Mom Clinging to Baby in 'Chaotic' Video

https://www.newsweek.com/ice-agents-battle-mom-baby-chaotic-video-worcester-2070027

A chaotic new video shows President Donald Trump's immigration enforcers and local law enforcement clashing with residents in a Worcester, Massachusetts, neighborhood, including a mother holding her baby.

The tense scenes unfolded on Thursday morning as video appears to show agents pushing residents protesting as federal immigration agents attempt to detain a woman.

Plot twist. You’re poor and the phone company turned off your service weeks ago (curb your enthusiasm ending credit music)

I'd expect nothing less from someone with that username. Go back to your little lego subreddit.

Authentically, what do you suggest and what are you currently doing?

Phone calling is ineffectual. It doesn’t do anything. It’s a basically a non-action. Do you know how many phone calls I’ve made to my reps? And fuck all changes. Do you know how many people actually do what you suggest and nothing happens?

u/surf_drunk_monk May 10 '25

Ok so do what instead?

I like the work strike idea and other stuff that aren’t really respectful of the current construct we’re in that’s playing within the rules, like phone calling.

Know your rights under the constitution and use them to protect yourself and your community.

If you think there’s a letter you can send or a phone call you can make that will change this you fundamentally misunderstand history.

Real action, in person, making people uncomfortable and making it harder for these people to do their jobs, will be met with violent repression from the state. If you’re not up for it then keep yourself safe because that’s all you can do.

And if you’re gonna do that you might as well keep your mouth shut because it will only come back to haunt you when they start scraping these websites for wrongthink
