    What???

    Of course you protest against people collaborating with fascists. Next you say people shouldnt protest against ICE because they are just following the presidents orders…

      At what level do you collaborate with fascists? ICE carries out unlawful orders with extreme brutality and should be protested against. A construction company is just a construction company. At this point let’s list all the companies working for any federal agency, including cleaning services and gardening because they collaborate with fascists. Come on.

        Yes. Unironically boycott anyone that directly does Trumps bidding. Cleaning the building is something that people were already doing before the Trump regime. Wrecking the white house is NOT something that was done before and is a change directly ordered by Trump.

        “I’m not at fault, all I did was build Auschwitz!” Yes this is taken to absurdity, but the point is still there. You can’t do bad things and then expect not to be held to account for those decisions, just because it was a job you were getting paid for.

          Again, one is building a concentration camp, another is restyling the WH with questionable decision styles.

      It is a construction company, working on a building. This is not even remotely comparable.

        Both are just workers that are getting paid for a job that was ordered.

        Even worse than ICE, private capital has direct gain from this.

          Getting paid to fix a building and getting paid to murder someone are not even remotely comparable things. Unless “can get stuff with other stuff” is the level we go to, at which point any argument is useless to begin with. This is like someone talking about trees = bad because someone else said the order to murder someone. (Both are using language to convey information, there is no deeper connection)

            That is way the response OP posted isn’t even remotely comparable to the response if this demolition crew would be executing ICE detainees.

            At every point in your life you choose who & what to support.

            I think bitching about where you get your money is a very valid point overall.
