I know they are focussed on immigrants but who do they target? Illegal immigrants? Because I have seen so many vids of them attacking people at work or in their homes that I wonder: are these people illegal immigrants? How does that work? How do they have jobs or a home without documents? Do they attack random people they suspect to be illegal?
In California around the 1850s, (and probably other parts of the US) the tactic of deputizing white supremacists like the Klan was the official policy of the state. They’d made “anti-syndacalist” laws which allowed for capitlists to legally deputize fascist thugs to brutalize undocumented strikers, organized by CPUSA and revolutionary unions at the time.
This tactic of deputizing white supremacists is used often by the US whenever the settler population gets too uppity about their “jobs being taken”. The exact group of the undocumented changes due to geopolitical shifts but the same formula has been consistently followed.
