ICE’s new electric-shock gloves are drawing unexpected support from critics after agents reportedly discovered a way to keep themselves occupied at enormous taxpayer expense.
This literally is not satire. It’s just sarcasm. Because the core indefensible nonsense is actually fucking real, dry criticism is not some biting commentary on similar limp nitpicking of choke-holds and spy cameras. It’s reduced to reflexive ‘well how could that go wrong?’ pablum, on par with ‘what where they thinking?’
I thought this was a rare hit from OP. No: this is how I found out ICE is genuinely talking about electric shock gloves. Why this article, and not the article about Elon Musk getting shanked?
