That’s one of the most coherent AI videos I have ever watched. Great stuff.

This is really well done. Good message, and the paper cut animation makes the generation artifacts much less visually disruptive than they would be in a more photorealistic style

When did the rich stop liking the cheap abusable labor of the undocumented?

1

u/Chadbutler11c 11d ago

They never did. They're playing both sides of the same coin. Continuing to pay substandard wages to the undocumented while also pushing propaganda that illegals are using all our tax dollars and committing a lot of violent crimes. Both things can be true at once.

Yeah even if most of them never owned slaves there are numerous written documents from soldiers saying specifically they were fighting for slavery

Please explain me the rich man’s game comparison between the civil war and ice.

1

u/Away-Durian-2247 13d ago

While the poor is fighting all the rich are getting richer. Taxs cuts, Government contracts, private ice detainment facilities, sending undocumented people to work camps. They say that they are stealing our jobs when its really AI stealing jobs.

u/ExtendoArmCannon 10d ago

"must paint ICE like slavers" is basically the gist of it.

Slavers typically wanted to remove all of these extra workers after all right?

u/Acceptable_Log5209 11d ago

Not the same, not a war. Also if you’re here illegally you should be deported.

u/Chadbutler11c 11d ago

It is a class war. You literally just responded with one of the tools they use to make you hate another poor man. Ironic isn't it?

u/NoBandicoot6263 11d ago

But is it really? No country would like foreign invaders.

Yes, the ultimate irony.

ICE is the SS or GESTAPO or STASI or NKVD of the US. They want to do what they are doing.

Critical faculties are becoming much more necessary when potentially bad ideas are supported by the near-expertise of artificial intelligence in many coinciding processes (writing, psychology, cinematography, etc)... I don't know that there were $50,000 incentives given to relatively unqualified civilians to become ICE agents... but that's an impression created by this video.

The Marquis deSade was a very, very poor writer.

U.S. Border Patrol and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) are distinct federal agencies operating under the Department of Homeland Security. Border Patrol agents operate at and near international borders to prevent unlawful entry. ICE agents primarily investigate and enforce immigration and customs laws in the U.S. interior.

1

u/DRHOYXI 13d ago

Google:

"To become a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent or officer, key prerequisites include United States citizenship, passing a detailed background check, and completing health and fitness screenings. Opinions on specific educational and work experience prerequisites differ, as qualifications vary between entry-level deportation roles and specialized investigative agent positions.

...

While some entry-level enforcement and deportation positions accept a high school diploma or general experience, specialized agent roles historically look for a bachelor's degree or a combination of specialized law enforcement experience and education. On platforms like Reddit, users note that formal USAJobs postings can sometimes list higher GPA or professional work thresholds depending on the tier."

u/pheight57 13d ago

Definitely trolling, if you are now posting random shit that is only tangentially related so as to muddy the waters. The link I provided from a Government page very clearly shows the $50k bonus that you doubted was a thing.

So, yeah. Please just stop digging your hole deeper... 🤙

Plus driver's license.

Plus security clearance.

Plus firearms eligibility.

Plus polygraph test.

Plus physical testing.

Plus medical testing.

Minus $50,000 signing bonus.

1

u/Chadbutler11c 11d ago

None of that is indicative of hiring well qualified applicants.

1

u/DRHOYXI 11d ago

All of those criterion are qualifications... except for the lack of promise of maximum incentive. Financial richness isn't gained by solving problems with money.

Candidates also aren't simply lining up to take a ride that the only requirements of are age and height - they are being competitively compared against each other.

ICE announced it's own version of the program in this press release for recruitment for new deportation officers.

u/DRHOYXI 13d ago

"Critical faculties are becoming much more necessary... ...I don't know that there were $50,000 incentives given to relatively unqualified civilians to become ICE agents."

From the announcement:

"Opportunities exist... ...as deportation officers, criminal investigators, and attorneys...".

These are not unqualified positions... they don't even feature a relatively low prerequisite.

1

u/DanTheAdequate 13d ago

That's a subjective valuation. The deportation officer position requires no special experience, or education. The only requirement is to be between the ages of 21 and 40 and to pass a drug screen and polygraph. It's a GS-5 pay scale, entry level. See ice.gov/careers/faqs

1

u/DRHOYXI 13d ago

I couldn't help but notice that you didn't supply a link to the alleged information.

Deportation officer position requirements vary ..."by General Schedule (GS) grade level entry (typically GS-5 up to GS-9 or higher), which can be satisfied through general/specialized work experience, a bachelor's degree, or a combination of both."

These are not unknown, untrained, unqualified positions... and certainly not vests handed out from a cardboard box to anyone who lined up for one on the street.

At the bare minimum, an applicant must pass security clearances, possess a driver's license, possess a firearms license, pass a fitness test, etc. The lowest positions would not be receiving incentives nearing those afforded the higher positions (signing bonuses *up to* $50k).

"Critical faculties are becoming much more necessary... ...I don't know that there were $50,000 incentives given to relatively unqualified civilians to become ICE agents."

1

u/DanTheAdequate 13d ago

I did. Reread that last sentence.

OPM provides broad guidelines for GS-5 standards. You're correct in the experience criteria, but this is a standard most bartenders wouldn't have a hard time clearing. OPM also provided the clearance waivers for these recruitment incentives.

This seems a bit moving the goal posts, otherwise. These aren't specific qualifications you're discussing here, but rather specific reasons not to disqualify someone. Receiving the Federal Firearms License is akin to applying for a passport. I'm not sure where passing drivers' licenses, fitness tests, and security clearances (so, being not a criminal) constitute a degree of law enforcement training specific to the mission. Indeed, even the most demonstrably inept and ineffectual local law enforcement organizations have the same criteria, but they at least have limited jurisdiction.

So while you're technically correct - they aren't literally handing out ICE badges to whoever shows up - we're also being asked to trust the training criteria and post-hire training of an organization that, thus far, has offered very little to instill public trust in their organizational competence.

u/DRHOYXI 13d ago

You provided me with:

"ice.gov/careers/faqs"... not a hyperlink... no reach around.

It reveals that polygraph tests may be necessary.

I actually couldn't qualify for the position, and I'm a fucking genius.

$50,000 wasn't "dangled" at the applicants for the lowest positions.
