You can affirm the humanity of ICE agents without endorsing the harm of the system they work in by clearly separating human worth from institutional power. Someone can be a full human being — with fears, constraints, and moral complexity — while still participating in a system that causes real damage. Acknowledging their humanity is not approval of their role or their actions; it’s a refusal to dehumanize in return.

Protecting immigrants, then, means centering rights, dignity, and safety rather than punishment or hatred. It looks like due process, legal representation, limits on detention, and accountability for abuses. None of that requires denying the humanity of the people enforcing the system. It requires drawing firm boundaries around what a just society allows to be done to vulnerable people.

Holding both truths allows moral clarity without cruelty. You can say that a system is wrong, that its practices must change, and that harm must stop, while still recognizing that the individuals inside it are not cartoon villains. This stance resists the same dehumanizing logic that has been used against immigrants themselves.

Ultimately, protecting immigrants while recognizing ICE agents as human beings means rejecting disposability altogether. It insists that no one’s dignity is erased, even as power is challenged and constrained. That combination — compassion paired with firmness — is what makes lasting justice possible.

It’s too chilly. Let’s turn up the heat to get rid of the ICEy conditions.

It's been sad to watch and see what beings today think, say and do with their bodies. Many get it! Many baby bodhisattvas know all this ICE bu****it is wrong, bad, evil, wicked karma. Many don't get it. They've been drinking too much koolaid and now we gotta figure out how to change all their minds as soon as possible.
