That is an interesting assumption. Given how few Nazis there are and how plentiful the non-Nazis orgs are that do something the level of ICE, I don’t think there’s an “entropy drift” towards becoming Nazis.

Or perhaps the checks are very common and don’t usually result in public letters and whatnot.

ICE hasn’t even been accelerating in their harm to people. If anything they’ve plateaued or declined. I’m not sure how to best measure fascism in ICE, but long term internment, death, and mistreatment is probably a start. The death rate has dropped, despite many more detentions [0]. I tried to figure out some metric around number detained, but I think that may also be influenced by number of crossings and not straightforward to risk of becoming Nazi Germany.

How do you think we can better measure this risk within ICE?
