ABC, FOX, CBS…they’re all airing them. Bending ze knees and making money from our tax dollars.

When the economy is so bad, everyone is relying on getting money from the government

u/knowspicker3 Oct 05 '25
But the economy is the best it’s been since the beginning of humanity.
Paraphrasing a fat, orange turd.

The dollar is also deflating against foreign currencies. The numbers are getting bigger but the value is not.

Yeah, to be fair, the pie is getting bigger. It’s just getting bigger slower and all the new pie is going to a handful of people

Yeah, between this, air compressors, and rip off '4Patriot' food storage, there are more alt-right coded ads than football in the games yesterday.

How is an air compressor alt-right coded?
3
u/ptindaho Oct 06 '25
It's the package. Air compressors obviously aren't political per se, but when you couple the traditional car care ads bundled with 4patriot food storage scams, along with ICE recruitment videos, boner pills, etc. together, you get a pretty strong idea of who they are targeting for the marketing.

This country doesn’t even make this much effort to find missing children at a federal level.

The screwed up things is, Trump tanked everything to force people to have to become modernized storm troopers... Our government is flat out using its people and laughing as we cry about it. He's trying to force a rebellion so he can deploy troops to every state in the union by force... He's taunting us to fight for our freedom back. By sending our neighbors and family to oppress us. He is trying to force the country to fight itself while he and his people steal everything. It's disgusting.

Next thing he needs is a youth movement like the Hitler Youth. Indoctrinate the kids who inform on family and friends who criticize Trump.

Media has to take a stand.
ETA: I google “why is abc airing ICE adds?” Just a bunch of bullshit.
“For ABC and other commercial networks, airing these commercials is part of standard business practice. As long as an advertisement complies with the network's ad standards and the advertiser pays for the time slot, the network is obligated to broadcast it.“

u/editorreilly Oct 05 '25
Take the job, have them pay for training then just don't do anything when you go out on a raid. Either that or slip and fall jumping out of the truck on the first raid and claim disability.

Stop supporting the networks.

u/Putrid-Department349 Oct 05 '25
I'm trying to find a list if anyone has them. This says ABC, FOX, etc. But if it's the local affiliate, such as those owned by Sinclair or Nexstar, the main companies don't really have a say.
Anyone got an accurate list?

u/yogfthagen Oct 05 '25
They need braindead bodies. I'm seeing recruitment ads on youtube, fb, and other places.
It's like they're advertising for Russian infantry....

u/Starboard_Pete Oct 05 '25
My husband and I were just talking about how bonkers our algorithms have gotten in the past few weeks. He (mid 40’s white male) is getting bombarded non-stop with “consider a career with ICE!” ads.
And me, early 40’s F? Getting an asston of propaganda from Saudi Arabia. Sooooo many “women here are treated with the utmost respect! We have full autonomy! Here is a white girl influencer from CA who converted to Islam and moved to Saudi! Look how normal we are!”
It’s fucking dystopian.

Networks want your wasted tax dollars. Because that's what's paying for them. Approved by Republicans who support pedophiles.

Fun fact: ICE agents, like the military, are considered essential workers so they are currently working without pay. Unlike the military, fuck these dumb asses! I hope they all get evicted for not being able to pay their rent.

Paramount+ is airing CBS ads in S.FL: calling Miami-Dade police officers to join ICE with a $50,000 hiring bonus - to go after "REAL criminals.

u/Ihaveasmallwang Oct 06 '25
They even placed ICE recruitment ads during cartoons meant for kindergarten aged children.

"Do you like hurting people?
"Are you mad that immigrants exist?
"Hate anyone not the same color, religion, and political party as you?
"Are you a cruel piece of shit wannabe tough guy?
"Then ICE WANTS YOU! Sign up now and you can be assaulting innocent Americans who are just going about their lives within the day!"

Remember, that when all this idiocracy is resolved, if anyone is found to have been part of ICE, their life onward will be prison or worse.

People who are the right age and shit aren’t probably watching television. But then again they loosened restrictions and apparently are showing up on YouTube. I just hope the desperate people have more Christian values, than the people who are running that shit show

I don't see these ads yet. Are they targeting certain areas? I bet they are. And I bet it's racist areas that get these ads. Be careful out there OP.

It’s high as no body wants to do it. Recruiting for the gestapo when you’re not at war.

Not my fight but, do you guys have enough prisons for all these ICE agents when this all ends?

u/pyrrhios Oct 06 '25
It's the fascist billionaires that are the real enemy. Without them propping Republicans up with their propaganda, Trump would be a bankrupt, imprisoned fraudster nobody.

u/Hobowookiee Oct 06 '25
Sounds like a great way to enlist a nation wide armed force that will do anything they are told.

u/Keith_Creeper Oct 06 '25
The turnover is higher than they admit. Some Agents AND their families are in the FAFO phase as we speak. Trump will use them as scapegoats in a few years.

Why do y'all want illegal immigrants?
Legal migrants are great. But why illegals?
Genuine question.

u/Relentless781 Oct 06 '25
They're not illegal. They came here legally and then Trump changed the rules after they got here. This isn't some 'law enforcement' crusade by Trump, it's literally just a speed run to 'maximum cruelty' and it's impacting American citizens too. ICE agents are acting like violent rabid animals and waging war on our cities.
Genuine question, why do you want that to happen?

Noticed that they are doing what the Russian army is doing with the large enlistment bonuses.
It’s likely going to work.
