The crowd continues to sing "We've got ancestors at our backs" as police line up behind #JewsAgainstICE, @CosechaMovement, immigrants and allies who are shutting down @ICEgov.
@CosechaMovement @ICEgov Police are dragging us away from the ICE HQ garage, using physical force to try to stop our peaceful protest. But we aren’t going anywhere, not while immigrants are separated from their families, not after all that we’ve learned from the horrors of the Holocaust. #ShutDownICE

Thread.

As the brave activists and employees of tech companies have come out to stand up for #NoTech4ICE, we must remember that willingness of technology companies to choose profits over morality has been a tradition that has led to some of the worst atrocities in human history.
The help of IBM in implementing the Holocaust is one of the lesser-known stories of the time.

But IBM's help was indispensable for a regime that was planning on industrial efficiency to catalogue and kill Jews.
IBM worked closely with Hitler's Germany, not just giving them their equipment but also their know-how, in order to help them in their plans.

This included using IBM machines to track census information in order to identify Jews around Europe.
