MAGA has a hardon for cruelty. It's about hurting people. They love the idea a rounding up non-white people, loading them into boxcars, and shipping them off to concentration camps. Everything that Trump has done so far is going make billionaires richer and regular Americans much poorer but as long as he's hurting non-whites they will sit around giving each other rage handies and praising him.

Can they even hold that many?

Not in any safe manner. Safe for the assholes running the show that is.

I'm sure imprisoning 30000 innocent people next to highly trained terrorists won't come back to haunt the US.

Newsflash about the current inmates of Guantanamo

And then the US said to Germany, "We too, can do Auschwitz."

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 day ago

They think the problem with Auschwitz is that people could see it.

Colombia, which eventually backed down, slammed the US' treatment of migrants since Trump came to power.

Why do they continue to repeat this narrative? Colombia wanted the migrants to be deported under humanly conditions. The US did that, now Colombia will take them. The threats of sanctions has nothing to do with it but it makes Trump look strong.

Because weak people need to tell everyone how strong they are

Doesn't seem like misreporting. I found other sources reporting it too.

I sent a text to those I love in any capacity, even former coworkers who've probably deleted my number. Not a group text - one by one. I think it'd be prudent for all US readers to consider doing the same.

Knowing some of you are like me, in that you might not know how to word such a text to someone not expecting it from you, I offer you my copy/pasted text:

America has a concentration camp now. I won't send you anything more...it's kind of rude that I'm sending this one. https://www.lbc.co.uk/news/donald-trump-announces-plan-to-send-migrants-guantanamo-bay/

What will it take, Americans? What will it take? What will it take.

To this day we still question how could the Germans watch Hitler and the Nazis come to power. Well we're learning how, in real time.

"I'm still too comfortable, I need to pay my bills" should be the summoning chant for fascism.

The way I understand it we have these places in the US call prisons and they are used to house criminals. I guess the only problem with that is in order to put people in them they have to be guilty of a crime.

My grandmother fought in the Dutch resistance, helped people who were Jewish escape, and was put in a camp. She died a few years ago. This is how that happened, too. And we're all watching. Even with americas vaunted 2nd amendment, Russian-backed fascists just walked in and took over, and everyone is just watching them. No riots, no fighting back, just passive resistance.

I wish all of you the best of luck. I'm going to go hug my kids.

Your grandmother sounds like a fucking hero

Don't blame the Russian for what the US is doing. A country that spent years of committing war crimes and establishing laws that invade privacy, haunting down journalist and humanitarian, is destined to use that power to abuse their own people sooner or later regardless of foreign intervention.

Fucking hell. We were sooooooo close to finally releasing the poor souls caught up from 9/11 shit stuck here. I'm so fucking disgusted by the ruling class in this country.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Not disgusted enough to mobilize against them though.
