    Hitler specifically called the U.S. treatment of indigenous people an inspiration, and used it as his basis for treating Jews, gays, communists, intellectuals, and all the other victims of the Third Reich. tRump and his Fourth Reich is just coming full circle.

    Reminder that before all this El Salvador was sweeping up anyone and I mean anyone they found on the street during their sweeps and throwing them in huge overcrowded cells to await mass trials without representation.

      even more damning that the populace has cheered for it; non of the human right abuses matter so long as it’s not them.

      It seems this new technology is not much benefit in stopping it? Observers are great, powerless and disorganized ones not so much.

        Too many people live in willful ignorance

        You can see the obvious big picture and scream from the rooftops, but everyone who is comfortable enough and in denial that things are actually that bad straight up just ignore you

        It’s only now that people are starting to get their wakeup calls, like a lot of Europe, for example

        But god, if it isn’t super frustrating to watch the local news in my European country and have politicians repeatedly say “nobody thought we would be standing here talking about this 4 years ago”

        I did, fuckers! I did!! The fascist threat was obvious ever since the first trump presidency, and the trends could clearly be seen from even before then, however, I was a child at that time

        I don’t get it. Especially because politicians are supposed to be the experts in trends like this. Is everyone just fucking clueless??

        I swear most people are just so neoliberal ideology brained, and heavily struggle seeing anything outside of that. It’s been a massive failure on the part of society that political philosophy has not been a bigger part of the education curriculum. Or part of it, at all.

    “Accused of being gang members” lmao let’s be clear here 90% of these dudes literally have gang tattoos 🙈

    Also you can cover tattoos at any time, it’s not that hard.

    I’ve been in the tattoo scene since the 90s and have a full body of tattoos myself and everybody knows that a gang tattoo is a point if no return and basically the dumbest thing you can do. If you went there then I have zero sympathy for you.

          Have a read of the article old bean. They are being sent to El Salvador from the US, in violation of any number of US laws, including the big one, the Constitution of the USA.
