But not talking about it allows people to forget. This is not a thing that will go away if we ignore it. There needs to be public scrutiny and criticism of, and even clashes with ICE. This is not only going to affect immigrants. ICE will be coming for regular citizens in the near future if they are not reeled in soon.

This is the wrong place for this, being "world news" and not "US news"

Department of Homeland Security said the agency has “successfully negotiated nearly a dozen safe third country agreements.”

So US + at least 1 or more countries not accepting their own citizens + 12 countries accepting these citizens is NOT world news?

Use a word filter if it bothers you so much

Thanks for bringing this up! I do, indeed filter out Trump and the known billionaires. ICE is unfortunately impossible to filter out, being a fairly common word...

See if your client supports a regex filtering. Would make a good feature request if not.

\bICE\b

This would block posts with only ICE as it's own word and in all caps. Not so common now

Not my post, comrade, I just commented on a thing that crossed my feed. Lecture OP. Also, the US is still a part of the world whether you like it or not. The community is not called " not American news" . If the community is lacking news from other countries that's on a lack of posting representing them, not on the inclusion of the country you're tired of hearing about.

Ok, I'll just block this community too. Enjoy the american world news!

Or, I don't know, maybe be the change you want to see. Bitching that the content that's available isn't the content YOU want to see is not contributing. Maybe actually post what you think is relevant to the community, or just go back to reddit if you want everything done for you.
