Why the divide?
Facebook discussion | 01/16/2026 | Paul Rivers

Posted on 01/16/2026 5:40:18 AM PST by spacewarp

I have been wondering why the left is so absolutely dead set against ICE and their mission of keeping America safe.

I had a discussion with a leftist on a friend's FB post (and no, I'm not posting her post, or my friend will be hit with tons of people showing up). She claimed that they were Gestapo. I told her she was wrong. I then worked to try to explain why Renee Good was in the wrong, and she posted up a list.

If I believed the line of lies of the left, I can understand why they believe that it's horrible.

How can we ever come to common ground when these lies and heinous ones at that, exist and people are brainwashed into believing this tripe.

The person who responded to me making the claims, I posted the body of her text in there and her parentheses were the comments she made. Given what she’s saying, if those lies were even a quarter true, I could see the anger, but I know they’re not. We have seen an insane rise in violence from the left, with today a mob of leftist monselters stopping a vehicle because they thought it was ICE and demanded the man go rent a different kind of vehicle.

Sorry. Was trying to differentiate my comments from hers. And then work got busy. Perfect storm to leave my comments completely misunderstood.

Sorry. I posted her comments and then work got busy. Lunch. The top was mine, bottom, hers. It was a steaming turd. But if we understand the enemy, we can defeat the enemy.

IBTZ troll.

The Nazis invaded other countries, and brought foreigners to Germany unwillingly, to put them in gas chambers. (More or less)

ICE stays in the US, finds people who came here illegally and without permission, and sends them home instead of killing them.

Literally the exact opposite.

I hope it doesn’t get zotted because I wasn’t clear enough. The “body” was her comments. I was hoping for responses. I understand what you’re saying. Just did a bad job of posting today. You’d think after nearly 30 years on here, I’d know how to post. Duh.

The same idiots that spent 2 decades screaming about paper bags “Save The Trees”.

They told us to switch to plastic!!!

Now they attack plastic.

My apologies.

I see now what you’re saying.
Keep up the good fight!
