    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.

    Dachau didn’t open until 3 months after Hitler took power. They are right on track.

    “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.

      Even if 99% of them are actually gang member, then there is still a bunch of innocent people locked up. Using the word ‘accused’ or ‘suspected’ isn’t meant to cause doubt, it’s to make clear they haven’t been convicted. I really wouldn’t want to be falsely accused and treated as these men are, and it’s really awful knowing some of them could be there without having done anything wrong.

      Can you point out the criminal statue against certain tattoos? After that would you mind showing me where they were convicted for those tattoos. Then I’d appreciate a link to the federal sentencing guidelines on tattoo-related offenses that suggest forced labor camps overseas.

      But they’re innocent until there’s proof of guilt. Sending people to forced labour encampments because of their tattoos is just a different nazi move.

          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.

      Even if they are gang members they still should have due process and a trial. This is one of the foundations of our legal system. Where does that leave us if we just leave it to law enforcement to throw anyone in prison without any oversight? That’s straight up authoritarianism you’re arguing for.

      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.

    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.

      Only one way, but there are many ways to approach that way. My favorite is the Italian method.

    Yeah no viva Bukele

    People saying “if you arrest all those gang members economy will collapse because even though they get their money from illicit activities they still spend it back into the economy”

    Nayib Bukele “dude are you fucking stupid?” they arrested the violent criminals and the ones that organized themselves in violence promoting bands… and they GDP went up by like 5% I believe? mainly because honest working people didn’t have to struggle against the villain.

    Nah those pieces of shit are there for a reason, society and tolerance are a social contract… you respect it and you fall under it, you don’t then you feck off.

    ARRIBA BUKELE!!

      Did you catch the words “without proof”, and “without due process” in the OP? It would appear that these people pictured are innocent.
