      Good thing we all trust the federal government to give due process to people they will accuse of being ISIS agents working domestically in the US.

      They’re disappearing people on the street in and they’re posting no context tweets saying “WE WILL FIND YOU-AND WE WILL KILL YOU”. I’d hold off on sounding so sure about what they mean for now.

        I mean it’s not exactly no context, it was in direct reply to another tweet that was simply cut out of the screenshot

        It’s still incredibly unbecoming of an official government communication. I’m just saying we don’t need to overstate how bad it is, it’s plenty bad enough already

          I don’t know, I think any government saying that they will hunt and kill people is pretty bad. Maybe something more along the lines of investigation and prosecution. I’d even accept using necessary force to protect citizens, territory, and those of our allies that we have promised to defend.

        I’m not pretending that that isn’t happening. I’ve seen the videos going around and it’s truly horrifying. But the tweet in question literally does have context. It’s a quote tweet quoting a propaganda video about ISIS. I’m not so ignorant as to completely dismiss the possibility that this wasn’t JUST directed at ISIS, but cutting out the quoted tweet and just showing the quote is misinformation and i don’t think that helps anybody at the moment.

      True, but FFS, really? Does that even need explaining?

      These people are so dumb, so dumb. And petty. It’s like watching 15yo bullies living out their revenge fantasies
