Gestapo/Stasi vibes all over.
During Gestapo and Stasi times most informants did their best to remain anonymous because no one likes snitches. Openly following someone and bragging about it is sociopathic even by nazi and Stalinist standards.
Oh, they just didnโt realize that they are easy targets themselves. Early days are always like this.
You mean KKK, Confederacy, White Supremacist, Slaver, Jan 6th Protester etc... The threat isn't foreign to America, and its been here in America since before Nazis existed.
Stasi did not execute people in broad daylight. Comparing the Stasi (intelligence services of Socialist Germany) to the Gestapo (agency instrumental to millions of exterminations in genocide) is insulting.
both are a bad comparison for ICE, which is much more like the SA: low-level thugs used to intimidate the opposition and steal elections, to be discarded and replaced the moment they're no longer needed
Nobody cares if Stasi are whingy about imperfect allusions. ๐๐ฝ Both groups deserve lead sentences, full stop.
Everything you know about Stasi comes from Hollywood, go read a book
You're reading the wrong books, nazi. ๐๐ฝ
Communism defeated nazism and saved tens of millions of lives from Nazi extermination in Europe. Again, open a book for once in your life
