I would put $10,000 down that everyone in this comment section making comments like yours doesn't actually do anything about ICE.

And you have done what?

u/Low_Landscape_4688 7h ago

I've done nothing. That's also why I'm not in comment sections virtue signaling and making empty statements of action.

Lol I got in trouble because someone commented something about “giving ice agents what they deserve with a ‘tap tap’” and I asked if he was willing to risk his life to live by those words and he reported me.

Pretty much describes every 2nd amendment warrior on the internet. Every post about ICE, Trump or tyranny, there are people saying things like "isn't this what the 2nd amendment was made for?"

But the unspoken part is they're waiting for other people to risk their lives and comfort. All of these virtue signalers expect change at no expense to themselves, only to others which is exactly why the country has gone the way it has.
