1. Acusaciones de Complicidad y Vínculos Políticos.
Una opinión generalizada en los posteos es que Home Depot es cómplice de las redadas de ICE. Los usuarios atribuyen esta colaboración a los vínculos de la empresa con el Partido Republicano y donaciones a la campaña de Trump, sugiriendo que la compañía permite o incluso facilita las operaciones en sus propiedades.
- Start boycotting home depot. Its pretty obvious at this point that home depot is complicit with these raids, making them no better than ice agents in orange aprons.
- Home depot - huge trump supporter, right? are they calling ice? collaborating on raids? seems plausible.
- Home depot is a big maga supporter, why are people surprised that they are allowing icebp to raid their private properties parking lots. Home depot can stop the raids they chose not to. Stop going to home depot.

2. El Silencio Corporativo y la Respuesta Oficial.
La falta de una declaración contundente por parte de Home Depot es un punto central de crítica. Muchos interpretan su silencio como una confirmación de su apoyo a las redadas. Algunos usuarios comparten la respuesta oficial de la empresa, que se deslinda de las operaciones y dirige las preguntas a ICE.
- Fuck home depot and their silence. During a time where they should be speaking out against whats going on at their stores, theyve chosen to be silent.they should be boycotted like target.
- Home depot keeps quiet on immigration raids outside its doors.
- New a spokesperson from home depot messaged me today about ice raids that took place at homedepot immigration and customs enforcement ice is the best source for any questions you have about this. We werent notified that this was going to happen, and we werent involved in the operations.

4. El Objetivo de las Redadas: Los Jornaleros.
