Early Picture of the Florida Concentration Camp
(midwest.social)
More like Alligator Auschwitz
$45 billion more given to ICE with the bill passed in the senate today. Your taxes going towards (more) ethnic cleansing. They want to strip citizenship from anyone who doesn’t kiss their ass and throw them in these cages. Next step after that will be “lending” the imprisoned for labor.
Any American who doesn’t have “abolish and defund ICE” at the top of their priority list is aiding and abetting fascists.
Minor correction - the bill passed today increases it's overall operating budget by $175B to over $200B total. ICE will become the third most funded armed forces in the world just behind China. $45B is earmarked for camps.
There's about 10M undocumented immigrants in the u.s. This is about $20k each. They're not just going after immigrants.

wtf. It’s almost ENTIRE Chinese army budget ($246 billion). And china has aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines! It’s a budget for a new army

200b This is insane amount of money. They're gearing up for something huge.
They knew the military wouldn't fight civilians, because it has a command structure, but ice will

God. The wet-bulb temperatures in August alone are going to murder everyone they send to that concentration camp.
I think the alligators are just a distraction from the fact that they are setting these people up to die in a hurricane or violent storm event. If not just the heat like you said
Trump canceled hurricane season by turning off the monitoring software. Can't have em if you don't track em!

Eventually, concentration camps always turn into death camps.

Without early warning systems, they’ll be hit by an ‘unexpected’ hurricane soon enough. The rising floodwaters will penetrate the cells more easily this way.
That is an interesting point, but they'll just leave prisoners in the cells to die like they did in Katrina.

The Nazis used wood. Other than that, I don't see much difference here.
Wait, "alamy" claims ownership of the picture?! As in monetizing the fucking Holocaust!?

And gave them windows. Trump doesn't even give his victims that much
And just like that, conservatives have brought us back to some of the most disgusting times in history.
Conservatives: Making America Great again
"Oh nice, we've discovered new photos of the WWII concentration camps for Japanese Americans."
I feel absolutely sick to my stomach.

Their definition of great has always been when slavery is still allowed.

If you wanna see how “great” a society is just look at how they treat their prisoners and the animals they eat.

fucking disgrace, all these just to detain migrants. Meanwhile in Wisconin in 2020, a white kid shooting 3 black men gets off scot free. I forgot his name, the chubby kid with a puchable face.
found it, kyle fucking rittenhouse. Jesus that case made my blood boiled.

Maybe not just migrants, Trump was literally quoted as saying something like "even some people born here are not so great, that might be the next step." And other officials have already hinted at mechanisms for stripping citizenship from US born people that "pose a threat to the US".

I wonder which members of the GOP personally profited from these being built.
Yeah for being in the Florida Everglades that doesn't even look air conditioned. Cages aside.
Do they have to give some fucking stupid name to everything like some 5 year olds? I can't stand we have the shittiest, dumbest people in charge.
I'm pretty sure it's light-weight psyops. Gitmo got a cutesy name as well. Anyone not directly part of the silly walks ministerium doesn't give a nickname to something so serious.
Its a psyop to make media choose for fake ai, high click rate images Rather then real pictures:
3 ai pictures used by “news” sites:
Real picture below for comparison, shows the people who made the above do know what the tents look like.
Also its “build on a runway”, makes you “think” they are using it as temporary place before being deported by plane but no the tents are build ON the runway
You are honestly overcomplicating it. It's not a psyop, it's marketing and PR. Evil is terribly banal; it doesn't take mustache-twirling villains, only average people who are willing to do whatever they need to do to avoid being in trouble themselves.
They need "Alligator Alcatraz" because Republicans figured out 25 years ago that a catchy name goes farther than anything more serious. It is why "Obamacare" is still reviled to this day, despite near unanimous support for the ACA. Nancy Pelosi shutting down Walz for his "weird" label was perhaps the biggest unforced error in political history.

I mean, Alligator Auschwitz would probably be more apt anyway.
Starting to look like those 3rd world countries we've seen pictures of our whole lives.
Welcome to the future conservatives want.
This is why you don't do dipshit things like vote 3rd party or abstain from voting as a form of protest when so much is on the line.
The bigger issue is that somewhere near half the US is OK with this. Sure, maybe some people could have done more to prevent it. But, there were also untapped voters on the other side who fully supported this kind of thing, but were too lazy to vote.
The US is in a crisis not because of who is in charge, but because roughly half the population supports this kind of thing. It could be that some of them are actually not horrible people, it's just that they've been misled by Fox News, right-wing echo chambers, and other sources of information that have blinded them to the truth. But, a lot of them are gleeful participants in this new world, and will fully support it until they're the ones being sent to the camps.

The people doing this are evil. What can I do, I’m trapped in NYC by a job I can’t leave, and I have a family, so I’m not going to be a guerilla… but I give it 3 months before idiots on the right start posting their Florida gas chambers
At some point people are going to start having to risk their comfortable lives to resist
Being trapped by a job does not sound like a life of comfort. Leaving my job would mean being flat broke in two weeks and then starving. If you work paycheck to paycheck, you literally cannot afford to risk your lifestyle to resist.

We have a better A name to describe it than Alcatraz.
I haven't heard anyone say Alligator Auschwitz yet, but at the rate we're going it might be appropriate.
Edit: Ah I'm too late, I saw it further down

Evil. I fucking hate how I'm living through a major historical event like this
Looks exactly as I visualized the first chunk of the book I Who Have Never Known Men
If I lived in Florida I'd be doing everything I could to burn that place to the ground. Damn the consequences

Concentration camps
One of my Canadian friends called it "Alligator Auschwitz". I think we should all call it that exclusively and incessantly.
when this is over, could we use this to house all the ICE thugs and MAGA politicians?
