Wait, what?
Trump is using concentration camps, but I don't think he's a Nazi. Why do you think so?
Wait, what?
The part where she said concentration camp.
Again, I think it's cute you don't think her saying concentration camp has any connotations or hints at the concentration camps that comes to everyone's mind when concentration camp is said.
How many average Americans understand history that well? Do you think it would be a majority?Concentration camps have a long, notorious history from centuries before the Nazis, and the US had it's own concentration camps in WWII.
I think it's cute you claim to know what comes to everyone's mind. Anyone who understands history understands the continual presence of concentration camps.
I couldn't be happier that I didn't get involved in any of this lol

So the choices are:I’m sorry you fail to understand how we act matters.
It’s a concentration camp.
Concentration camps have a long, notorious history from centuries before the Nazis, and the US had it's own concentration camps in WWII.
So the choices are:
a) put people who illegally cross the border into what you term a concentration camp
b) let people freely cross the border whenever and wherever they want
Yeah, I would choose a. If I want to enter another country the first step is going to be to do it according to their laws.

God don’t be intentionally dense. You’re smarter than this.
Point to where I ever said, or even, hinted at this being an A or B choice. Immediately send them back or provide adequate facilities. There’s two additional options.
Also, these are concentration camps. By definition. Not death camps but certainly concentration camps. And just like the ones in ww2 this will go down as a disgusting stain on our nation.
By your logic let’s just widen the premise.
You steal and we will break every bone in your hands. Don’t like that don’t steal. Easy a or b choice.
Yeah, I'm aware
Are you aware in OC's tweet she linked it with something that says,
"the American consciousness, the term is synonymous with the Nazi death machines across the European continent that the Allies began the process of dismantling 75 years ago this month."
At the end of the day, I don't care if she wants to use that term. Again, my whole point was both her and Trump tweet some pretty dumb ****.
So the choices are:
a) put people who illegally cross the border into what you term a concentration camp
b) let people freely cross the border whenever and wherever they want
What's your expert take on how it should be handled?How about the people legally crossing the border and claiming asylum?
Or this one?
"a place where large numbers of people (such as prisoners of war, political prisoners, refugees, or the members of an ethnic or religious minority) are detained or confined under armed guard —used especially in reference to camps created by the Nazis in World War II for the internment and persecution of Jews and other prisoners"
If you ask me, again, I think it's cute people think it was said without reference to Nazis (her original tweet referenced the concentration camps being synonymous with the Nazis.)
Which definition are you using?
"a place where large numbers of people, especially political prisoners or members of persecuted minorities, are deliberately imprisoned in a relatively small area with inadequate facilities, sometimes to provide forced labor or to await mass execution."
This one?
Or this one?
"a place where large numbers of people (such as prisoners of war, political prisoners, refugees, or the members of an ethnic or religious minority) are detained or confined under armed guard —used especially in reference to camps created by the Nazis in World War II for the internment and persecution of Jews and other prisoners"
If you ask me, again, I think it's cute people think it was said without reference to Nazis (her original tweet referenced the concentration camps being synonymous with the Nazis.)
That said, I do wanna read up on concentration camps George Takei was in. I know there were some in Utah, but I guess, in my head, I always imagined them being way worse than what's going on at the border right now. Look forward to reading up on it.
This one's great. We do have a large number of people (refugees, in fact) detained and confined under armed guard. The especial reference is not a universal reference.
I hope you will drop that lie soon.
So the other definition that doesn't use Nazi then?I think it’s cute you keep going back to nazis. Something I never mentioned.
It’s a concentration camp. Even your second definition doesn’t exclude non Nazi camps. I’ve repeatedly mentioned the camps we used ourselves in WW 2. A reference people conveniently ignore.
I look forward to your excuses.

It’s shameful. Stop. Be against illegal immigration. That’s cool. Doesn’t mean you have to support these camps.
So you're saying I'm a liar still when I just gave you proof for what you called me a liar for?I'll let you know when it happens. Usually, I'm grateful to people who prove me wrong. Just recently, idestroyedthetoilet proved me wrong, and I thanked him for it. Of course, since I didn't call him a liar, it was not a precise parallel.
I don't need any. I put in a copy of the tweet that started this manufactroversy, and there was no suck link. You offered a link that agreed with Ocasio-Cortez and I, and think somehow you proved a point.
