    No this is pretty much par for what I expected. The fact that we don’t have news stories spreading around about concentration camps in the desert by now actually shocks me. We’re absolutely fucked and this dumpster fire isn’t going away anytime soon, but it hasn’t starting launching poo quickly as I anticipated.

      Those camps exist. ICE disappears people on the streets and puts them in those camps.
      Tourists from western countries, with valid visas and white skin were put in those camps.
      They haven’t gone the next step from “detainment” (=concentration) camps to death camps.
      But it took the OG Nazis 9 years to go that step, too. After they did the math and realized that “evicting” millions of people isn’t possible.
      Make no mistake, the current US regime won’t have any moral qualms about going that step, too.
      I just hope they don’t have 9 years. But I also know for sure that if Trump dies, this won’t end. Vance and the gang are actually even worse.
