I mean, famously the treatment of Mexican Immigrants by US border agents was a major inspiration for the holocaust¹, if anything ICE right now is just returning to their roots.

If you ascribe everything going on in the US right now to "they must be being influenced by Russia", then do yourself a favor and read about the history of the DHS, the FBI report on police officers keeping known white supremacists in their ranks, and the US's history of racism when the state thinks it's advantageous.
We've done internment camps before. We've done mass deportation raids before. The aleutian people never fully recovered from being placed in concentration camps during WWII by the US for the crime of looking vaguely asian while living close to the russian border.
What's happening right now is a terrifying escalation, and should serve as a wakeup call to the evils we've already been committing. Saying this is because we're a puppet state, or controlled by russia, or that ICE is some secret mossad op, or any of the other conspiracy theories going around right now just shifts the blame away from us.
It says "things are bad right now but, with enough nationalism and suspicion of foreigners, I'm sure we can fix it!"

shroomie@strongsand u need to update your favicon but otherwise; this a very cute website for a very cute puppy! also you cover for mistakes or discomfort a bit too much in your about me section. i don’t think people should be allowed to diminish your comfort just because they’re uncomfortable. it is a them problem if you not being a person or being an it/she is problematic for them

Like, to me the main "point" of the video is about the dangers of "frictionless lives". About how people have gotten so good at living within four walls hooked up to a screen that within seconds can show them any movie, any song, any book, and how that will lead, or maybe already has led, to the death of community and culture. People's capacity to spend the future without conflict or desire will lead to that future being made up of dead malls and empty rooms.
And like, to be completely honest, I don't see it. I just don't see that happening, to be honest. Even within lives that are inextricably linked to the internet there's still a lot of friction, not just from doomscrolling, either. Like I'm pretty well-off and online by Latin American standards and the ways in which the economy and politics of Chile and Argentina have added "friction" into my life are uncountable, and that's not even to speak of the millions of my countrymen that are affected way more. Even the most online people I know irl have sex, hang out with others, and go to extremely *alive* malls. To most people living right now the world is very friction-full and, to be honest, not super empty.
To me it feels like if you wanted to argue that the future is made up of conflict-less empty rooms you would need to assume that the future is only inhabited by Middle and Upper class people from the first world, and, maybe coincidentally, that's the only type of person Geller discusses the works of in his video.
