  • As an American who has actually studied WW2 history, I’ve decided which to use myself, but here’s the reality : the US is fully a police state. Our regular local/county/state police all play para-military as well. Since those enforcers are going to be the most common interaction they most citizens would experience, I personally decided to refer to them as SA/Brown Shirts since they largely act as thugs.

    So with local police acting as brown shirts, I think it makes sense to refer to Feds (in general) and ICE specifically as Gestapo especially since their primary MO is to disappear people.
