At this point we can pretty much write off the US as being civilized.

We could have written them off as civilized years ago. I think it's well beyond that now.
Should have, but lots of countries didn't because there was just too much money to be made by going along with US bullshit. If Cletus with a GED in bumfuck Mississippi is morally culpable for this (and he is) then Klaus with the PhD in the Bundestag ought to explain himself too.
Agreed. My own country is one of the most culpable. My disability payments come from a pension plan heavily invested in 'Murica and they refuse to even consider changing. Lots of folks collecting from American investments. Companies. Government. Individuals.
because there was just too much money to be made by going along with US bullshit.
i guess it's also historical momentum, and people changing only slowly
Abu Ghraib.
DeSatan was a JAG officer at Guantanamo, overseeing torture of post-9/11 detainees. Reportedly, he laughed at their suffering.
Yes, this isn't a sudden development. They've been practicing and refining their cruelty and humiliating protocols.
Yeah, the Abu Ghraib photos were released over 20 years ago. The US has always been like this, liberals are just worried because it has happening stateside now
A lot of us were upset about it happening abroad too.
No no, Americans savages, liberals bad
ICE: brought to you by the “I can’t eats my shredded wheats no next to a black. Or drink from the same water fountain!” crowd. The ultimate snowflakes.
Abuses Reported at Concentration Camp.
Camp DeSantis
Alligator Auschwitz
My own imagination terrifies me about potential horrific shit we're not hearing about this place.
What's to stop these sadistic fucks from committing Unit 731 levels of horrors? (if you're not familiar with imperial Japan's Unit 731 and decide to go look it up, please proceed with immense with caution, it's the absolute worst shit you can imagine, possibly worse than you can imagine)
We've seen this type story before.
How many days until abusive and unchecked jailers reach this point?
I am pretty sure that some of these ICE bastards, if they ever visited Auschwitz, would all be excitedly going "Write that down! Write that down!".
Although perhaps assuming they can write os a bit of a stretch.
Considering that the Nazis learned from USA but had to make racial laws and more laxer I'm not sure they need any inspiration
We've seen this one and know where it's going.
Sadistic assholes.
Abu Ghraid 2.0...
Remember when that treatment came to light and people were generally horrified? Do we just need photos so everyone can see what's going on with their own two eyes like Abu Ghraib? Or are we morally past the point where people who voted for this would even care? They might even celebrate it.
That's why we extensively photographed the Nazi extermination camps when they were liberated; so people would believe the horrors.
They would just flap gums about the images being AI generated.
I don't want to sound like I'm defending torture or anything. I just want to point out that at least the prisoners at Abu Ghraid were accused of being terrorists (whether that was accurate or not).
The people at Alligator Auschwitz are just migrants.
Regardless of the reason why these people are incarcerated, they're being treated as if they're not human.
And the people in Abu Ghraib never got due process either.
I feel like I know how this story is going to end and the sad part is it won't even be the first time we found a mass grave behind a dungeon in Florida this century
the only question is how many people have they killed already and dumped in the swamp.
Incredibly disgusting of ICE here.
every ICE member needs to go to jail.
Wouldn't mind if they are sent to CECOT.
Sounds like the work of MAGAts.
Inhumanity creating more inhumanity. Who would have thought?
This prison is backwards, the guards and detainees need to switch places.
More humanitarian excellence from the GOP-dominated Gitmo Nation
