    This administration has established concentration camps on the southern border of the United States for immigrants, where they are being brutalized with dehumanizing conditions and dying. This is not hyperbole. It is the conclusion of expert analysis ⬇️https://www.esquire.com/news-politics/a27813648/concentration-camps-southern-border-migrant-detention-facilities-trump/ …

        And for the shrieking Republicans who don’t know the difference: concentration camps are not the same as death camps. Concentration camps are considered by experts as “the mass detention of civilians without trial.” And that’s exactly what this administration is doing.

        Why are these people coming to the United States if it's going to be like this for them?

        Good question Dawn. It's almost like they are fleeing a horrible situation (uprooting their family, which is totally easy to do right?) because they fear for their lives and the lives of their children and want asylum. Weird ...

        Who told them to come here? Great question you won't answer.

        Not "who", what. The imperative to survive is what tells them to come here.

        Very very poor choice of words and, as usual, highly inaccurate.

        The author of A Global History of Concentration Camps, a University of Virginia Holocaust and genocide studies historian, and the author of "The Invention of the Concentration Camp” agree with her.
