I’ve just read the letter. Please, let’s not spread misinformation, things are bad enough as is.
The letter demanded the voter database, among a couple of other sensitive databases. It never said ICE would leave if they comply. It only promised that peace would return to the streets, whatever the hell that means. I highly doubt they mean withdrawing ICE, especially considering they keep painting them as completely peaceful, and considering they demand a shit ton of cooperation in that letter as well, essentially letting ICE in everywhere. So in fact, it’s almost the opposite - they demanded that and also demanded more access for ICE.
I really appreciate it when people want to set the record straight like this, and you’re right, the truth is probably worse than this post. But it’s not as sensational so people will gravitate to the bullshit tweet instead. Which is the same phenomenon which gave us trump to begin with. 🤦♂️
Thank you for cutting through the rhetoric and making sure things are clear. I would also like to add that there are no parts in the letter saying that ICE will change their operation tactics and procedurdes (e.g. executions).
Thank you for the clarification and suggestion, but this does not constitute misinformation, as I see it. The Orange Turd’s camp are characteristically incoherent. You interpret Bondi’s incoherence in a different but valid way. What they are communicating they will do if given the voter database is less important than their interest in forcibly obtaining the voter and other databases - and the linkage of this interest with ICE’s presence in MN. Please let me know if I’m off the mark here; if this is misinformation and should be removed
I would agree with you. Having an active hand in the next voting process sounds like an easy way to disrupt an election. Not a guarantee, but possible. I think people here should be able to think for themselves a little bit.
I definitely think your post is misinformation. What the commenter told you is quite different from what you reposted. Bondi made demands but no promises. It’s probably actually worse than what you posted, but accuracy matters.
Thank you for your comment. I think your standard of accuracy for defining “misinformation” in this context (lemmy.ca/boycottus) is too high and would discourage people from posting or participating in this community. If I saw more comments or votes in support of your position, I’d delete the post
What??? incorrigible? I extended a good-willed offer for you to supply the change that you were requesting, and in response you report me to the moderators?
(Edit: You’ve wasted a good amount of mine - and now the mods’ - time I’m using the block button for what it’s for)

…you could easily point out the actual truth in the post body. And my position is relatively popular if you look at the thread.
68 upvotes on the original comment calling this out, alone.
Also what is this idea that facts matter less in specific communities?
Please draft this
Alright dude I just reported the post since you are incorrigible.

I gave you a chance to fix it and your response was for me to do it. Whatever dude.
You’re right. I’d bet what they mean to say is that peace would return to the streets because they’d get rid of all dissenters.
I think ots a fumbled / heavy handed attempt to portray Waltz as promoting violence.
In the same way that Ukraine could and the Russia conflict by capitulating.
They still want to fuck with voting though, which is the gist of the post.
Walz should get a chat box to make up a random list of imaginary voters, print it on a few reams of paper at 5pt type and see if they really leave.

OP doesn’t care that they’ve posted false information. They all but told me so.
