Engels discussed, in his "The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State," how the state's violent and coercive mechanisms increase in proportion to class antagonisms in a society. And as we see capitalist crises deepen, we are seeing more class antagonism and more violence from the state. ICE (+CBP, all of DHS) is yet another violent manifestation of the coercive mechanisms. One that Trump is now using as his personal unhinged militia. So the question is, will we ask for something nicer? Or will we build the power to get rid of this system altogether?
