The plan is called “Catch and Deport” and involves searching international students’ social media accounts
So long as they don’t conflate “Hamas” and “Palestinians”… which they will… so fuck’em.
Well, the comment that showed bust above yours shows an article from NYT doing exactly that 😮💨

Yeah, that’s exactly what I thought. Any criticism of Israel, and support for Palestinian civilians, will be “pro Hamas”
Anyone who actually is pro Hamas deserves everything they get, of course.
Excellent. Hamas are terrorists. Fuck them, and anyone that supports them.
He also lifted all restrictions and sanctions on the violent settlers imposed by Biden. So he is definitely favouring one side.
Civil rights advocates say they are concerned that the Trump administration will penalize pro-Palestinian students who have not violated any laws or expressed support for Hamas. They also are expressing concern about the use of AI, a new technology that has advanced even since Oct. 7, to surveil students.
Advocates for and against the administration’s efforts both say they expect them to wind up in court. For now, though, the crackdown is already creating a chill on college campuses, according to the NPR report, which found that some foreign students are increasingly hesitant about participating in any pro-Palestinian events, even when they are not demonstrations against Israel.
Yeah, except they are using the new buzzword technology to try and do it. What tools are they using? What testing have they done on them? What is the false positive rate? The MO of this administration has been to use a sledgehammer for issues that require a scalpel. You don’t have to be a part of Hamas or a supporter of terrorism to have opinions on current events. How do we make sure this doesn’t turn into a McCarthy style witch hunt?
Hamas supporting you say? In my Feed this posts is only a few away from this one.
Trump administration reportedly to use
AI“AI” to findHamas-supporting foreignstudents to deport.Dear credulous capitalist media… Stop recycling fash bullshit.
