Through some 3rd party anectodal experience, i can confirm ICE is using AI facial recognizment to deport people.

This is really, really bad.

came to the United States in 1978
A lot of them are gusanos, so it will come with no small amount of schadenfreude should they end up going through this in the US.

While no doubt a lot of them are gusanos, I don't think all Iranian immigrants from 1978 can be described as being gusanos.
I'm not Iranian, so I can't speak much on that, though.
And despite as evil and cruel as many gusanos can be, and how it could be satisfying for them to get a taste of their own medicine, I think there comes a point where it becomes gratuitous and unproductive.
And while this might sound neoliberal, and I'm probably way overthinking this, but I always stand by in a "presumed innocent until there is reasonable substantial evidence otherwise" kind of thing.
If this woman turns out to be have been a complete gusana, I might laugh, but I really do think that when push comes to shove, we have to be better than the capitalists and exploiters are.

Yeah of course, but it is undeniably funny to imagine people who virtue signal constantly about how Iran is a police state that arrests and tortures people, to end up arrested and detained in an actual police state. Like these people come out of the woodwork every time the US flares up against Iran with "I am a real PERSIAN and I want regime change!".
