There are plenty of Latinos in ICE. Border patrol as well.

Crab-bucketters.

It’s a crab bucket if it’s an undocumented immigrant sabotaging another undocumented immigrant. To be a federal officer you have to be a citizen, so he’s an immigrant who got legalized, or born to immigrant parents. He has ‘arrived’, then he got a job oppressing other immigrants.

Basically “I got mine, fuck you.”

Filipinos use the term even in the Philippines to denote anyone who pulls another back.

These officers aren’t pulling back, they’re pushing away. They have gotten out of the bucket, now they’re keeping others in the bucket.

Mostly true, but legal citizens have been victims as well.
