I haven’t seen discussion about why ICE agents are Hispanic and Black men. I really don’t understand this. Educate me why especially Hispanic/Latino men are grabbing Hispanic/Latino men and women off the streets of the USA? I already know why white men do. www.latinorebels.com/2020/07/06/l...

I believe everyone’s response is correct. It’s about being accepted by white America, believing you will more accepted by those who look down upon you. Making you more acceptable yet, I would guess the majority of these new employees are first generation or those who haven’t made within the
Successful ranks of society. It’s unfortunate for them to believe they are better than the immigrants they are arresting because within the America cultural totem pole of acceptance, they will always be looked upon as an illegal immigrant despite the time or generations they have already lived in
the United States. Then there are two aspects no one seems to recognize within cultural wars and racism within our country. Everyone always focuses on the issues between white and black America. Racism between the minorities exist. Especially blacks toward Latinos/ Hispanics. Blacks have always
Jumped on the bandwagon of illegal immigration against Latinos, especially in California and the southwest. Yes, everyone, black Americans can be just as prejudice as their complaints against white Americans toward them. But it’s not just black Americans, Asian, Jewish, Middle Easterners, racism
Exist. I believe this is why trump and Stephen Miller have been able to pull on those issues of race to blindside the ignorant to believing trump is for them. Hispanics/Latinos joining ICE is about self hate, blacks joining ICE is about racism. Unfortunately white Americans who join ICE, your
Purpose has been accepted as reality. This is s short synopsis of what I see being an indigenous Native American. I’ve lived through it all and had to acknowledge growing up in America by my own self analysis. Culture and the color of your skin has been a big deal but I’m hoping it’s changing
Only to be reminded it’s alive and well in the trump world.
Great post and I think it’s right on point.

Uncle Ruckus comes in many colors.
There have been reports over the yrs that Hispanics who immigrated legally do not support illegal immigration no matter who is doing it. They are apparently more principled than people who frame every issue in terms of race or ethnicity to the point of tribalism. EG www.newsweek.com/hispanic-sup...
Collaborators. Like in Nazi Germany.
Do they believe joining ICE will insulate them?
They better be careful when they are out of uniform.....they aren't safe from their ICE bros.
It's the same reason that women vote for Trump...ignorance. People from every ethnicity & background are susceptible to hate, brainwashing & the lure of a good paying job & big signing fee. 💰💵💰💵💰 ICE is leaning hard on recruitment $50k & $60k in student debt forgiveness share.google/3KNivP0wi3J4...
Because they're stupid enough to believe that they'll never be the target. Which is dumb on every level ever conceived by the human race.
Das Geld, das Symbol der Anerkennung, aber auch der Preis der Akzeptanz.
It pays really well. People lose their principles all the time for money.
"Men" is your answer. Just as white MAGAs are motivated by racism, male MAGAs are motivated by sexism. It's a hate movement built entirely on punching down.
Jews handed over Jews to the Gestapo, it's survival.
Making a living makes you do alot of shit you don't want to do.
I struggle. I don’t hurt people because of it.
Phyllis Schlafly A woman stepping on women to hold up the patriarchy by making it her job to travel to make speeches stating 🚺working outside the home would destroy 🇺🇸by emasculating 🚹 & irreparably harm children all while traveling around 🇺🇸leaving her husband to care for the kids & home.
Good pay, a sense of “patriotism”, and wanting to belong to the dominating team. Plus Maga hopes to buy their loyalty and votes. God I hope it doesn’t work.
This brings to mind, cult leader, pastor Jim Jones had the vast majority of black Americans in his congregation/ members drank the Kool-Aid when they followed him to Guyana. How this helped to explain the gaslighting of people who think they are doing the correct thing. Same for Hispanics. 😟
Money and proximity to power.
maybe it's the money
They needed a job to feed their families and medical coverage. It’s always the money at every level, isn’t it?

Money, machismo and safety. If you are wielding the baton, you don't get hit.
Money!
There's also the possibility that they'll do the minimum, and take a job from someone else who wouldn't. That's got some challenges in reasoning, but it's possible.
Money is both a survival need, and a motivator. It seems like for a lot of minority groups, it's the first one.
here’s a little ditty to help people ‘member: 🎶if your last name ends in a vowel or a “z” there’s no place for you in white supremacy🎶

It’s about increasing their proximity to the social power of “whiteness” by acting as its agent, and the money certainly doesn’t help provide extra moral clarity.
Correct!
They sold their souls.
Lets cut to the chase, $$$$ dictates far more behavior than any force in this world.. Yes, a very well paid army when asked will do the most atrocious of crimes. $110k a year or $20k a year, the answer is simple for many.
I feel like it’s the same reason white people sign up. They get someone to legally kick around.
I wonder at this too.
Crazy thing is, when Stephen Miller sees the numbers slipping, guess who'll be getting their ICE gear ripped off as they're dragged into processing? SURPRISE! It'll be the ICE of color who are now acting like their slave master's hunting dogs.
Cant figure it out?? MONEY!! Big bonuses! Stable job!
They're unethical ppl, hurting their own for $. It comes down to morals & values. They say, "I was literally starving," and the rest of us will call BS. I was poor, but I never hurt anyone for $. One Xmas I only had PB, crackers, & H2O. That's all I could afford. They disgust me. SOLD THEIR SOULS.
The pay.
Money - “Latinos make up 18 percent of the US population, but they account for 27 percent of people living in poverty.”
$$$. Promise the people at the bottom of the poverty stricken food chain a few bucks.
Sociopathy isn’t exclusive to whites.
1. Power trips 2. Facilitating their own ethnic cleansing thinking it will protect their families I'd say ask the surviving families of Jewish police in the Nazi ghettos of Europe...except you can't because most of them went straight to the gas & execution pits once everyone else had been murdered.
Thank you for being so eloquent in framing this.
MONEY! Its the American way! And now they prob think theyre protected if theyre on the side of the oppressor!
Duh, right, not sure why this is a point of further discussion. $$$$$$
I had the same thought

Ironic they join to have a better life while deporting their brothers and sisters seeking a…better life
I am trying to figure out why 3 of my neighbors (1 Filipino & 2 Hispanic) are flying blue stripe flags. One of the Hispanic guys speaks little English.
Money.
Same here 🤷🏽♀️
