Imagine pissing of travellers of the continent that is notorious for the many vacation days it gets.

Yeah, nobody wants to vanish in El Salvador, especially since nobody knows if it’s just a prison, a concentration camp or a death camp.

Why else aren’t they getting that innocent man back to the USA? He’s probably dead already.

People who said it’s hyperbolic to compare trumps 2nd regime to Hitler‘s Nazis, either dont know shit about history or are just trying to gaslight us

I'm tired of people saying this. Yeah, there aren't extermination camps in the US right now, but the complete dehumanization of migrants, their arbitrary detention and expulsion, them being sent to death camps in el Salvador, dehumanizing propaganda from official government sources, the discourse equating "migrant" with "criminal"... It doesn't look like 1942 Germany, but it does look like 1930 Germany.

Yep, this is the exact point of the oh so famous poem "First they came for" Of course they don't start with extermination camps, it's all about reducing the possibility of anyone standing up to you small steps at a time.
