Wow, they werenโ€™t complaining when it was health staff being harassed/doxxed, compromising health care & patient safety.

But now itโ€™s bad, when directed at modern day Secret Police?

American Dachau: Trump Takes the Next Step Six months.

Alligator Alcatraz is the American Dachau. The first concentration camp. The Nazis initially portrayed Dachau as a proper prison with proper treatment.
Trump prefers to promote the cruelty and barbarism.
This is my latest on where this goes next.

Opinion | Donโ€™t call it โ€˜Alligator Alcatraz.โ€™ Call it a concentration camp. This facilityโ€™s purpose fits the classic model, and its existence points to serious dangers ahead for the country.

I wrote about how the Everglades experiment fits into the history of concentration camps in the US and abroad, and how it will connect a domestic network of camps to an international one. Weโ€™re watching the imposition of a global concentration camp network.
