does anyone wanna go tell them?

US National Holocaust Museum: "The term concentration camp refers to a camp in which people are detained or confined, usually under harsh conditions and without regard to legal norms of arrest and imprisonment that are acceptable in a constitutional democracy."

Hmm yes how could anyone but a rabid tankie mistake the camps where children are detained in 100+ degree heat (or in freezing temps last week!), where if they get a trial to guarantee their deportation, it's a laughable imitation of the already pathetic justice system for the poor think that describes a concentration camp.

I would actually post in uspol instead of posting about it if they’d just be honest with themselves and admit that writing a long post full of condescending asides tacitly insulting the person theyre speaking to isn’t actually less annoying or bad for discussion than someone just drive by calling me a moron

Sorry to interrupt your rant here but ICE isn't holding these kids. Can you go back and edit your post to be angry about the Office of Refugee Resettlement, which is part of HHS, not DHS? Thanks.

As to conditions at the camp, it used to be a housing camp for oil workers run by Stratton Oilfield Systems, called "The Studios at Carizzo Springs".

https://www.vice.com/en/article/vb9xga/the-trump-administration-is-converting-a-former-man-camp-in-texas-into-a-shelter-for-migrant-kids

https://eaglefordshale.com/efs-news/press-releases/the-studios-at-carrizo-springs-provides-state-of-the-art-eagle-ford-accomodations

"The detention centers overseen by ICE are reserved for adults or families and often are run by private prison companies. Carrizo Springs is run by the nonprofit BCFS Health and Human Services, a government contractor for the Office of Refugee Resettlement, the agency within HHS that focuses on unaccompanied children."

It is a temporary refugee camp run by a nonprofit for the Office of Refugee Resettlement. These are in a different government department from ICE, who are all, as we 100% agree, shitbags who deserve to be punished. It's not a jail, calling it a concentration camp is frankly a lie - children stay there on average 42 days before being released to sponsors. Even if they were in hotels they would still be there some time, so while 42 days isn't the 20 days agreed in the consent decree, it's a transient refugee camp run by HHS Office of Refugee Resettlement.

The ICE camps, on the other hand, are loving evil. Can we at least not tar ORR with the same brush needlessly?

What Trump is doing is bad...

What Biden just opened isn't bad because it was used in previous administrations (Trump's)

bold of the democrats to pick another woman poc completely throwing their quislings current woke talking points under the bus for no reason

On paper, Young is way more qualified than Tanden and still ticks all the POC optics boxes that dems can't shut up about, which makes me suspect the Tanden nomination was either a half-hearted favor or a total pantomime done for political theater that all sides could benefit from.

you guys are going to get this thread gassed again because crossposting D&D posts let the crybabies rules lawyer and claim we were helldumping them, which caused Jeffrey to rant about "live posting D&D."

If they want to defend child concentration camps in some of the most disgusting, stupid and hypocritical posting on the entire internet just let their thread stand as a testament to itself that everyone can gawk at.

Pick is the most disgusting poster on these forums though and she should have been permabanned around the time she tried to claim Biden wasn't a rapist because he only used his fingers on Tara Reade but she openly brags about being friends with Jeffrey so the forums are stuck with her.
