Two hundred union workers, out of 5,700 who assemble dishwashers, refrigerators, washers, and dryers for GE Appliances-Haier at Appliance Park in Louisville, Kentucky, received notice this month that the Trump administration is revoking their work authorizations. The immigrant workers from Cuba, Nicaragua, Haiti, and Venezuela have received a mixed reaction to their imminent deportation—hostility from some co-workers and an outpouring of support from their union and the local labor movement. They’re part of the Communications Workers’ industrial division, IUE-CWA Local 83761.

    What is the argument you are trying to make with repeating that?

    Is your argument that was a massive blow to the material holdings of US law enforcement? There are 17,985 police agencies in the US, we’ll pretend they only have one station per agency (that’s a gross underestimate, the Minneapolis 3rd precinct should make that clear…) then 0.000056% of police precincts were burnt down during the protests. I would argue a number that small is negligible.

    Is your argument that a burnt down precinct is a form of justice that was achieved? There were ~1200 police killings in 2020. If that is your argument, then only 0.083% of people murdered that year got justice, much less any from previous/subsequent years.
