Text: ICE agents are complaining that every time they go out wearing masks in unmasked cars with no uniforms or identification, protesters keep dumping pounds of glitter on them so that everyone can tell they’re ICE for days afterwards.
Image below the text: a man in white shirt and black tie and glasses, with a raised hand, as if trying to get someone’s attention.
Text on that image: who had “Glitter bombing the Gestapo” on their bingo card?
Me. I was saving actually doing it for like September (back to school sales would save me a fuckload on glitter) but I guess I wasn’t creative enough and gotta think up something else.
Arm yourselves. This isn’t a joke.
They want millions dead.
Do you know that the KKK would disperse & never come back when would-be victims armed themselves and shot at them? A big element in the civil rights movement was vets coming back from the world wars with combat experience and firing back on their oppressors. Those are stories that get lost in the pEaCefUL pRoTeST propaganda, but arming up and defending their communities was a huge piece of the black civil liberties movement.
Anyway, point is, turns out people who hide behind masks to commit terroristic acts are truly, deeply chickenshit. I’m willing to bet ICE would do the exact same thing as the KKK if fired back upon.
The only good Nazi is dead.
Counterpoint: Oskar Schindler. Granted he’s dead now but he was p good when he was alive, especially by Nazi standards.
Not important cuz it’s obvious what your saying but I feel like the second half of the statement is necessary. This kinda implies there was one good Nazi
This kinda implies there was one good Nazi
There was that one Nazi doctor in China saving civilians from Japanese horrors. They even built a statue for him after the war.
Yes indeed
The 2 go hand in hand. The peaceful element provides cover and public cause support for the more militant elements. They also make it harder to concentrate forces to deal with them.
In turn, the militant add teeth to the peaceful element.
An intelligent government acts early, before the militant elements can come to bear. But for best results both (technically all 3, including political) are required.
Another good example are the Irish troubles. The IRA, while prominent, couldn’t “win”. The marches, and Sinn Fein did.
The people in charge want to fill private prisons with a vulnerable population who have no recourse as they have little or no rights. It’s a grift at the expense of human lives. They don’t actually care about immigration, they’re just using white supremisists as pawns to achieve their goals. They’ll also use them to eliminate political opposition to avoid eventual consequences if anyone with a spine ever gets back in power.
First they came for immigrants …
This ends with millions dead. arm yourselves. Improve your family’s chance of survival
I actually have dual citizenship, soooo… Byyyeee
Will you marry me?
258,000,000
Hell yes
Your time has come
No, honey, I wasn’t at the strip club… I was, uh, an undercover ICE agent!
Just admit you were at the strip club. It’s less embarrassing. You can frame it as supporting local business.
I’ll take divorcee for $200, please, Alec!

Cue glitter being declared a weapon of mass destruction.
More like weapon of mass fabulousness!
You look so luxurrrious!
Get a paintball gun with the paint balls filled with that permanent dye banks use for bank robbers.
Yes, and then die when you’re shot because you pointed something gun-like at them.
Beet root boiling water is a very stubborn dye to wash off too.
If you see an armed person with a mask, assume hostile intent. Call 911 and report masked people with guns.
I mean… yes but that’s only going to slightly annoy. Sadly I think this is going to take actually using a “stand your ground” law correctly. IE how the hell can anyone argue against, I saw a gang of masked men with a gun coming towards me and I feared for my life.
The dream is for trigger-happy cops to show up and start shooting at armed individuals in masks.
Teach both groups a lesson about how to approach citizens.
Lol. Maybe if we couch 911 calls with the fact that the person claimed their an ICE agent to help with the police not killing them on sight.
Reality is, cops are as, if not more, likely to shoot at you or help ICE kidnap you to a concentration camp
Maybe report them as POC when calling 911 so that they racist responders get really amped up?
Great advice if you’re a POC…
The problem is that the ICE are the trigger happy cops… 🤷
Gotta hit 'em with a stink bomb they won’t be able to wash off for days
Smells like pig in here
smells like bullshit in here
soap and water will wash it away just fine
Super Soakers and water balloons full of bright orange permanent dye.
Can I just use 5.56?
I wouldn’t point anything vaguely gun shaped at them.
Unmarked Vehicles masked men no uniforms no identification no badges? I think you should point a gun at them immediately. You have no way of knowing who they are and if they’re about to murder you.
If you do they will certainly murder you and even if you win the gunfight your life is pretty much over.
Sure if I’m the only one doing it. If we’re all doing it suddenly there’s a lot less of them. So they either stop or they die. That’s how we win. That’s how fighting against fascism works.
You need enough to be willing to give their life. Because some are still going to die.
That’s true. Complacency is always the greatest Ally of fascism.
Garden sprayers would work but honestly they will probably shoot you the second something comes flying at them
If spitting on people is assult, dispensing a pre made chemical mixture is going to be on the scale.
Might as well mix in something caustic then
And make it smell bad.
Why not just use H2O2?
Wouldn’t bright pink be even better?
Hot pink.
I hear you guys on the pink, I just figured oompa loompa orange to match their master.
Back the blue
Scalding hot pink
Okay ,so if they covered in glitter, they’re ICE. If not, they’re kidnappers for god knows what. I think it’s imperative people be able to distinguish their kidnappers, since the federal government is unable to do this.
Shit! An ICE agent!
No honey, I am a stripper.
It’s even worse during pride month !
me walking out of a strip club after getting a bunch of dances: I’M NOT ICE! I’M JUST A PERVERT!
Cover them both in glitter. If you can’t tell a kidnapper from an ICE agent they should all go to jail.
Send them all to El Salvador and sort it out later
Is there an online database for naming and shaming them yet?
I’ve seen this link floating around:
I was thinking of this idea as well. How do you verify and vet all that shit. It could get some innocent people hurt.
If you see someone who claims to be ice, cut their pinky finger off. Can’t hide that.
Is this true? I haven’t seen articles or videos about it yet.
Best I can tell it originated from a satire website. It is still hilarious.
This is a memes community. Take anything and everything posted here with a grain of salt. Or glitter.
Maybe this will give people some fabulous ideas.
All I could find myself was a TikTok video making the same joke. It definitely seems like any story of it actually happening is made up, but I do hope some people take… inspiration from it.
Not that I’ve seen. But I want it to be true.
We used to use tar and feathers… Oh how we’ve fallen as a civilization.
Honestly, this is way better because of the implications of what they’ve been doing. Also, their neighbors will know to avoid them.
I imagine one of them going home, getting a side eye and trying to claim “no, I was at a strip club, honest.”
tyrannical problems require fabulous solutions
While I applaud the idea, won’t this land you an assault charge?
No fighting fascism without risk
Each person have a different amount of risk they are willing to take but the important part is to fight
You complete me.
Do consult your lawyer before throwing glitter bombs at masked, not uniformed kidnappers that might or might not be ICE agents.
You’re probably getting the assault charge anyway for giving them mean looks; may as well get some glitter in there while you’re at it.
Only if you get caught
Just because ice don’t like it doesn’t mean it’s wrong
Because ICE doesn’t like it means it’s so right.
Depends on how fast you can run. Though the thought of a drive-by glittering on an e-scooter also makes for a pretty fucking funny mental image.
So, glitter bombs without glitter to avoid the charge?
No, no… the non-giltter bomb definitely still needs a charge. The bigger the better to avoid making the not-glitter too densely focused, aye?
Assault and battery of a police officer and destruction of property with malicious intent.

They are gonna arrest you just for standing there. Might as well go down swinging
Glitter paintballs or a wiffel bat filled with glitter or an aluminum bat coated with glitter glue!
Not if you aim for the eyes.
Technically, it would be battery.
Gotta do it from high up. Top of a building with multiple escape routes. Wide area glitter dispersal. Gives time to escape.
What if you just throw handfuls up around yourself as you go nearby. Your glittering yourself, but there’s “friendly fire.”
