CN: Torture, Sexual & Physical Abuse

Watch the full CECOT segment (the one Bari Weiss killed)

Don’t let the U.S. regime get away with this. We need International Criminal Court arrest warrants for everyone involved. Wishful thinking? Maybe. But still…

some excerpts…

One detainee being interviewed was a college student in Colombia. He waited in Mexico until his scheduled 2024 immigration interview in California.

At that appointment, he was told he was considered a danger to society. He claims he has no criminal record—not even a traffic ticket.

He spent six months in detention awaiting a decision on his asylum application before being deported to CECOT.

There, guards began beating him—until he bled.

They slammed his face into a wall and broke all his teeth.

He had no access to the outdoors and no contact with relatives.

The report then describes U.S. awareness of CECOT’s torture practices, followed by footage of Trump praising those practices.

Some deportees reported sexual assault. The detainee states that guards sexually assaulted most prisoners.

Lights were left on 24/7, and inmates were denied clean water.

Disgusting—that’s what the U.S. has become.

Taking people who never broke any law and torturing them for the entertainment of a Mad King.

(And to be clear: we don’t think torture camps should exist for people with criminal records either)

Now let the Streisand effect do its work.

@parents4future Our country has gone bonkers mad
@parents4future There is a Content Warning Feature. Are there special reasons you do not use it?
@monkee Yes, that's right, thank you. I hadn't thought about it in detail, but in any case, these aren't gruesome images that “jump out at you”; the report is told in a relatively calm manner, even if the content is very disturbing.
@parents4future You have CN Keywords at the top for it. That's why i asked.

Also: Me personally, i do not share bad news without a CW. So i Quoted you to add CW instead of just boosting.
@monkee yeah, added Content Warning using the feature now.
@parents4future Thanks a lot! The News is important - and CWs help a lot of people keeping their sanity in this crazy world!

Thanks for fighting for a better future!
