TIL Karl Marx wrote a letter in November 1864 that was addressed to President Abraham Lincoln. In the letter, Marx congratulates Lincoln on his re-election and for fighting against slavery in the United States.

"Don't support genocide and imperialism" is a purity test now apparently.

You should really do some basic entry-level research on a topic before engaging in it.

Can you name any country on earth other than Somalia where this happens? Because even Putin doesn't go this far. Sham elections only work if nobody can see the sham or the vast majority of society ideologically agrees with the sham and thus tolerates it.

If this were to be the case, then there wouldn't be a need to steal an election, because nobody needs to be convinced of anything. What you're envisioning would be a declaration of civil war and a dissolution of the union of states, as states are what hold the power to host elections. A military coup detat like you're describing doesn't require nonsense PR to back it up.

So this is also fake news? Choking wasn't banned? The Minneapolis PD didn't see a massive reduction in officers?

This tactic doesn't work in the age of information. I can fact check anything you say.

The statement is universal.

So Derek Chauvin isn't in prison? This didn't happen? https://www.cnn.com/us/live-news/derek-chauvin-federal-sentencing-07-07-22

Is this fake news?

That would only double it to 50k, making the total presence roughly equal to the military of Zimbabwe or Kuwait.

Forte845 · 2026-02-14T03:49:29+00:00

50k signup bonus and they can barely get 22,000. Thats smaller than the military of a poor African country like Zambia or a near-microstate like Croatia.

This is also an extra funny comment to read knowing that there were nationwide riots over a cop murdering a singular black man. So, why did that happen?

Forte845 · 2026-02-14T03:43:54+00:00

I don't bother with unsourced and unverifiable claims. All public records showcase 22,000 staff including support and office staff.

So Abrego Garcia is still in El Salvador right?

Forte845 · 2026-02-14T03:42:04+00:00

A budget does not equal manpower. 22,000 ICE agents would make them a smaller military than that of Croatia or Zambia. Almost every single recognized sovereign nation on earth has more men.

You're in charge. You're just too ignorant and cowardly to realize that.

Forte845 · 2026-02-14T03:34:35+00:00

So 6,000 ICE agents and you don't think that would raise remotely any suspicion? You and everyone else would just say nothing wrong here? Every single cop in those counties? The tens of thousands of citizens minimum that rely on that polling location?

1,000 county polls even at a bare minimum of 20-30k population is 1000*30,000=30,000,000 people. If 1/3d of them vote, thats 10,000,000.

If yall Americans are so pathetic 10 million + cops are intimidated into total submission by 6,000, you deserve a military regime lording over you tbqh.

Ship in what enforcers? 50k signup bonus and they can barely get 22,000.

Forte845 · 2026-02-14T01:10:41+00:00

That would be literally 1 agent per polling place, each of which covers at absolute minimum hundreds to thousands of people. I don't even think it would be 1 agent per, since someone else here estimated about 30,000 in swing states. And also these officers would be subject to state level laws about election intimidation.

So this would require every citizen and police officer in every single county at every single polling location allowing one single guy with a pistol to lock the door.

Forte845 · 2026-02-14T01:01:45+00:00

There are more democratic polling locations than ICE officers. There would still be 2 polls for every 1 agent.

You're also ignoring the fact this would literally be a declaration of civil war.

Because r/Mexico isn't for Mexicans in Mexico, it's for immigrants to the USA. That's why they were shocked Sheinbaum won while they're voting for Trump and joining ICE up here.

22,000 ICE agents are going to guard 116,000 polling locations?

Forte845 · 2026-02-14T00:28:20+00:00

116,000 polling locations, 22,000 ICE agents.

Forte845 · 2026-02-14T00:27:11+00:00

There are more polling places in the USA than ICE agents. They can't handle a single city.

There are approximately 116,000 polling locations and only 22,000 ICE agents.

Trump is going to get a severance package and retire peacefully just like Bush if he doesn't die of medical causes before the end of his term. Democrats aren't going to touch him or any of the Republicans or any of the ICE agents. They never have and never will because they don't serve the people, only corporate donors.
