The key takeaway is that the concentration camps in America have terrible conditions and should be abolished.

Gods, I wish this was something that didn’t even need saying. It hasn’t even been 100 years.

It’s hard to like this world.

    It hasn’t even been 100 years.

    ... since America's previous concentration camps.

    We've ALWAYS had concentration camps. Jails, prisons, correctional institutions, etc. have always been sources of unpaid, unfair, cruel labor.

    When we get rid of every single fucking prison, we get rid of concentration camps.

    No, since the last big "concentration camps are bad actually" event that pretty much everyone in the west agreed upon, until we let nazis out in public without beating the fuck out of them.

    Of course the U.S. has had concentration camps for ages at this point, and for some reason there's a whole bunch of people thinking that's perfectly fine, when there are still people alive today who lived through that bullshit in Europe.

    We should actually just torch anyone who thinks concentration camps are in any way acceptable.

    Good that Obama closed Guantanamo, it was the first thing he would do if elected.
    That country has been rotting for a long time.
    Even now they're doing nothing about it.
    Just look at Palestine.
    These things happen again and again if they let it happen.
